Squat: Failed 140kg 1 rep PR attempt on Sunday. I wasnt at my best on the day. I know I'm very close to 140kg at the very least having got 135kg x 2 easily enough. Reset to 120kg and working my way...

Back in the PR zone!

170kg x 5 and 175kg x 2 Deadlift within the last week. Damn happy with that!

135kg x 2 Squat. Getting very close to the all important 140kg mark. Havent been putting in the...

God dang Benching! Why is progress on it always such a biach? :confused: At least you dont have to worry about spotters constantly touching the freakin bar when your at max for reps :)

Got a new squat PR of 130kg x 3 reps. Pretty happy with that. Going to keep pushing it possibly and add 5kg until I cant do 2 or 3 reps in one set. Then reset.

Deadlifted 165kg x 5 yesterday. This...

Back up at previous PR's zone this week for all lifts and hoping to push into new territory.

Thursday was torture, more or less matching previous Deadlift/Squat/Bench PR's all in the one day. Body...

Congrats. 150kg x 2 Squat is impressive stuff. I'm only at 120kg x 5 Grrr!

Subbed!

After over a week off from proper programming during the Christmas period, I've started back on the Riptoe properly having a small reset.
All went fine, except the Bench was tough as hell @ 95kg, as...

Nice work going on here. Great to see your near your DL goal. You should be able to go well past 180kg. Didnt I see you deadlift 160kg x 5 a few months ago?

Ok so the last 5 weeks has seen me try to maintain my strength while loosing some weight. Had a number of nuisance family things I had to attend like 2 weddings and then the whole Christmas thing and...

Weight loss is simple!

On a bit of a cut at the moment, so focusing on maintaining strength I have for another week at least while I get my weight down.

Nothing too exciting on Saturday. Just found the Squat to be hard work. Probably hadnt gotten enough sleep or food the previous 48 hours. Will I ever learn?

Body weight: 103kg.....Yikes! I'm...

170kg....****!.....Thats a nice weight!

Have you seen the "So you think you can squat" series by EliteFTS on youtube?
Lots of really good advise in it me thinks.

Legs and body just felt sore the last few days.

Squats have been poor recently. Not making progress the way I am in Deadlift. So decided to skip squats on Wednesday. Went into gym and and knew I...
