And we’re back!! Deadlifts 255kg x 2 (x2 PB) 2 x 3 @ 212.5 paused Went into yesterday a bit cautious and honestly not overly confident, but switched on and really focused on warming up with intent. Focused hard on all the little cues and a few things I’d been subconsciously doing the past few...

Yeah I can but we are just keeping volume lower from now into comp day just to keep on top of everything. Really focusing on intensity though making sure those two sets are worth it

Deadlift Day As mentioned in the last post, my coach and I have made a small adjustment leading into the rest of prep leading up to comp. I’ll be alternating between heavy and light squat/deadlift sessions each week. This is just to give me that extra rest in between heavy sessions and keep...

Weekly Update Hey guys, sorry for the lack of updates last week, just been managing this back injury and a bit out of routine while on break. Even though squats and deads didn’t go to plan last week, I managed to hit a solid 132.5 kg × 2 on bench Sunday, followed by 112.5 kg × 5 for back-downs...

Hey guys sorry for the late update Deadlift day Unfortunately, came down pretty crook on Wednesday with a cold/flu. Because of that, my mid-week upper body session was just a light deload style session. By Friday, I’d gotten over the worst of it, so I headed in for deadlifts. Didn’t have high...

Deload wrapped up and straight into Week 1 of the new block. Great squat night, nothing too heavy, but really happy with how the top set moved, especially with form and depth. Backed them up with some strong back downs and RDLs Two weeks off work starting tomorrow, so even though training...

Deload Week Recap Kept it nice and cruisey this week stuck to my usual programming but ran SBD for 2 sets at about RPE 6. Accessories were still pushed fairly close to failure, but capped at 2 sets each of around 8-12 Work was massive with a heap of overtime, so overall recovery could’ve been...

Deload Week Lower volume and weight this week before heading into the next block. Definitely well timed and well needed, Big week of Pbs last week plus some big overtime at work rest will do me well. Just gotta focus on keeping the food, sleep and recovery on point. Just over 10 weeks out so...

Another big Deadlift day yesterday bit behind this week just due to work commitments but got in last night and got it done, didn’t have a heap of confidence just due to the week I’ve had at work but turned it on mentally and really surprised myself with an awesome session. 250kg x 3 (Triple...
