ME Squat Day
Hit up Raw sumo rack pulls today, about top of the shin below the knee cap where things tend to get slow for me in my geared pulls. I left the belt off and worked up to about 190kg, I felt a slight twinge in my low back so I put the belt on and very cautiously repped 200kg for 2.That was enough didn’t want to risk anything.Followed up with SSB squats for 5s and then GHRs.Good day.Back is tender but was likely just a warning shot, I’ll stick with my belt for ME stuff and leave it off for higher rep work.

ME Bench Day
A sort of deload week this week, goal was to work up to a heavy triple and leave it there. I hit 107.5kg for 2 and missed the 3rd, ah well next week begins some cluster sets should be good.Finished withj DB press, these alos felt like ass and chins which were ok. I also tried 1 set of guillotine press with the bar just to see what they are like, whoa my chest blew up from an empty bar but my shoulders did not like them.

DE Squat Day
2nd week of the wave vs a red band, went pretty well, hit around 110-115kg for my sets, speed was pretty good.Hit up zerchers next for Mikeys challenge, I managed 27 reps with 85kg in 2mins I think.I know I can beat this tho I might retry on Monday, battling a cold right now and reps are particularly exhausting! finished with some V ups for ab work. Doms is brutal from those zerchers.

ME Squat Day
Hit up geared SSB squats today, no box. Damn this bar is a biaatch, hit 160kg for a single missed 165 cos I fucked the descent. Funny I get very little out of my gear with this bar, PR Raw is 150kg.Found some weak links that I’ll be addressing aggressively from here out. Abs still need work as does my low back. I’ll be ready for a PR there next time for sure. Finished with light SSb GMs and then ab rollout static holds (BRUTAL). Solid and productive day.

Thanks Winkless
Its been a while since I updated, back to raw lifting now, did my 1st raw meet in August and had a ball.Numbers were low but I was coming out of gear and had a couple injuries.
I got a push/pull in Dec that I want to hit better numbers at.

Umm

Things took a real hit when I came out of the gear, and I was also dealing with repeat injuries too.
