ME Bench Day

Good day today, I benched a new PR of 125kg which I think is 275lbs for our slow American friends!! That was heavy but not horrible, I took a crack at 126.5kg after and missed midway. Next time. I had also already done 2 singles at 121kg. After the heavy stuff I have started a cluster run leading into the meet, I started with 2 plates 100kg which I felt like I could have repped all day with. I finished with 2 board presses paused no leg drive cos my back was cramping from all the benching, and then hit chins, took it easy on chins today, I was Fekd!

ME Squat Day

I added more chain than usual today, chain makes everything heavy!! I worked up to 160kg + dem chains which was a good strong lift for me today, I then did quite a few backoff sets with 3 plates. Plan was to do more higher rep back offs after with no belt wraps etc but my hips and legs were fried. I might do em tonight after pulling. I finished with GHRs, will do more abs tonight. Strong day.

I need to double my massage/SMR work for my hips and glutes. I know I am getting bound up again cos its taking more weight to hit depth, when I am tight I am very slow to hit depth and it costs me precious KGs if I am slow. Also want to do more beltless/wrapless squatting, not sure where to fit it in yet but have some ideas.

Deadlift Day

Tugged sumo today (as always!) and did clustered singles with between 187.5 and 192.5kg for about 8 reps. Felt a bit tired but got the work done, I messed with some swings and light abs after the pulls, then smashed a pizza and watched Ironman 2, yeah I am a bit behind on movies but it was ok. Solid day.

ME Squat Day

Pretty darn good day today, I squatted with the demon bar and 2 chains up to a new PR of 3 plates. I then did back offs with about 120kg or so. Strong stuff on the squats I am getting a lot better with this nasty bar. I then pulled sumo vs 4 chains for doubles, with all this practice I noticed a slight technique change to my pull that made it feel MUCH better, also helped my lockout too. I was pretty tired after so I called it a day.

ME Bench Day

Holy smokes I need a good sleep, couple shit days sleep this past weekend, I still managed a good bench workout tho. I hit a couple heavy singles and then banged out my clusters, these were tough as I felt like crap but I got them done without too much fuss. I then hit up 4 sets of paused floor press, I forgot how tough floor press is. I used a measy 90kg for 5s then threw on 2 chains for triples. I finished with 1 armm barbell rows and then band pulldowns with static holds. Good session.
