You going for 270?

[klaery]

You going for 270?

Probably not man. I was at that stage once but glandular fever knocked me back a few pegs. 260 would still be a massive pb and I think there is a chance I can get it. It will be my 3rd attwmpt if all goes to plan.

[klaery]

So got the 260 Lifts were 240/250/260. Came second overall (weight coefficient so no weight divisions)

[xRequiem]

That looked smooth!! Good job man, looks like the hard work is paying off.

[wick]

Nice work mate!

[Tom Bro]

[Tom Bro]

benching is looking awesome man. how was the 115 x 3 x 2? any left in the tank?

[wick]

sore calves from squats? how?

[klaery]

Thanks Tom. Yeah some in the tank.

Wick it was from speed squats. It is like tendonitis on the outside of the calf in the way it feels. It was caused by practicing rather extreme stretch reflex out of the bottom. It was still bad tonight and cut my session short but not as bad. Definitely getting better.

Squats
60kg x 5
100kg x 5
140kg x 3
160kg x 2
172.5kg x 3 Easy but pain started in the calf so stopped there.

Weighed in at 99kg

Got a lecture from the 30kg personal trainer AGAIN about how I am going to injure my back and I shouldnt hyperextend it when benching. ..

Edit: I should have told her I was just trying to confuse my muscles! Dammit you always think of what to say when its too late.
