| Training partner and I are both convinced that the blue plates weigh more than the all metal ones and blamed both our pants sessions on that. Close grip bench 60kg x 2 80kg x 2 100kg x 2 112.5kg x 2 Regular 122.5kg x 1 then fail 102.5kg x 7 Decline - all sets under 3 seconds, definitely faster with wider grip 87.5kg Close x 3,3 Pinkies on rings x 3,3 Wide grip x 3,3 Shoulder press on smith 40kg plus bar x 10,10,10. Used same plates as last week Triceps/Biceps superset. 35kg triceps, 30kg biceps 10/10 10/10 10/10 Got chatting to a rather attractive lady doing sumo deads - she's on 90kg squat, 70kg bench and 120kg deadlift at about 60kg bw. I might train her and get her into comps. She's coming to Genesis Gym to watch a qualifier to get a taste for things. | |||

| I was definitely thinking you'd get the 115 if you were Will Smith - unracking is an extra effort, plus you did it at the end of a workout. You going for it fresh next time? | |||

Flash said:Couple of updates. Still can't squat or pick anything up coz I'm still torn to sh1t. Physio next week, hopefully he can sort me. Done loads of cardio and did 3 sets of 10 muscle ups the other day, looking lean and looking big up top, have legs like pencils. Dench! Update in 2 weeks, still hold slim hopes of making an u90 qualifier. Welcome to the club. Do you find not being able to train legs is doing wonders to your bench/shoulder progress? | |||

| A day of eating almost nothing - nuts and fish. No carbs (didn't bring any with me and no time at work) Deadlifts 60kg x 3 100kg x 3 140kg x 3 160kg x 3 belted 182.5kg x 5 belted - easier than last week Rack pulls - bang on knee height 182.5kg x 3 202.5kg x 3 222.5kg x 3 - first attempt I didn't budge it, then the rest went up fine Axle belt clean Axle x 2 70kg x 2 80kg x 1 90kg x 1 100kg x 0. Used over/under and got it to my belt VERY easily, then couldn't get my under hand over. Shrug machine that's just like farmers pick up 130kg x count of 20 170kg x count of 20 210kg x count of 20 230kg x 11 seconds timed. Awesome rope machine where you just pull. Very much like pulling a lorry arm over arm. Level 8 x 3 mins, got a good amount of grip fatigue. Shame it doesn't go any higher. Cycling - 2.5km. Really need to work on my level of CBA to do cardio. | |||
| » Hook grip on Hercules Hold (Go to post) | 15-04-2013 @ 16:47 | ||
| For some reason I don't hook grip as much for regular deads/rack pulls, but I ALWAYS use hook grip for farmers. Never done Hercs but there could be some relevance. | |||

| What can you give to the company - media coverage, do you have a website, do you have a wide range of clients that you can recommend? | |||

| The most calorific coffee I could find whilst waiting for a friend, 2 pints of Guinness and Black followed by Lamb soup (with chili and garlic) - pretty much a meal in itself Bread Russian salad Turkish salad Yoghurt with mint 1 chicken shish 1 lamb shish 1 kofte shish 1 lamb chop Rice Coke Turkish tea Pretty full after all of that. | |||
