That's 20kg on my squat since Feb... No program, lots of heavy singles, volume based on how I have been feeling... HIHF for the win Top vid is 225 from today, another PB, bottom is 205 from Feb https://photos.app.goo.gl/WKRuteMAPMfzXuXk7

I think my spine would snap if I tried a 5plate GM! Will be making them a bit more of a focus soon though, think that could hold the key that I have been missing to reach a 300 dl

Wasnt really feeling it today. Im so done with training at home in the cold and rain, on an uneven surface This COVID 1984 lockdown sucks balls! Still a month until gyms open! Anyway, ill save my anti lockdown rants for another time and place lol HB Squats 150 x2 170 x1 190 x1 200 x1 140 x2x3...

Thanks man It felt fine today, so hence why I took low bar for a ride. Going to go back to high bar though for the next week or 2 to give whatever it is a good chance to heal up, and get back after 500lb high bar

I really regret not doing this style of trainimg sooner... First low bar sleeved PR since 2018!!!! Thats embarrassing!!! And after a long day at work in the cold wind and rain! Squat 150 x2 170 x1 190 x1 200 x1 210 x1 222.5 x1 (2.5kg PR) 190 x3 Bench 130 x5x7 riding the smolov jr train

Squat has stalled a bit... but im jot to worried. I think i did a bit to much back off volume last week, a heavy deadlift single yesterday and a poor night sleep due to kids last night amd 210 still went (all be it slowly) Squats 150 x1 170 x1 190 x1 200 x1 210 x1 170 x3 GMs 110 x10x3 - im so...

I agree that I dont think traditional 'speed work' helps, as i dont think the load is great enough for meanigful adaptations towards top end strength. However i think that using sub maximal loads help give some stimulus while keeping intra session fatigue down, and recovery cost at a minimum...

Things i learnt today You dont need volume for deadlifts, you just need to lift heavy. After months of deadlift regression, its finally making a move foward agian, with a top single one day and some DE on another. Maybe there is something too speed work Also a closer stance feels a lot more...

Just hit daily min today with squat, then a few light back offs as I felt the need to move something quickly. Took smaller jumps with the warm up sets to add more volume qithout adding volume of that makes sense lol HB Squat 150 x2 160 x1 170 x1 180 x1 190 x1 200 x1 150 x3x5 Make shift 1 board...

Thats some strong rows!

Another day another hugh bar PR. Although i moved the bar placement down a cm or 2 from being on my traps for the top singles, actually felt quite good. Squats 150 x3 170 x1 190 x1 200 x1 210 x1 217.5 x1 (PR) 162.5 x3x3 Bench 110 x5 130 x3 150 x1 160 x1 150 x3 125 x3x3 Inverse pull ups 2 x...

I think low bar just beats you up pretty quick! Elbows, shoulders, back etc... Im going to play around with bar position, grip width etc... to see if i can find a middle ground somehwere. Might even try high bar with wraps and see how that works out! In theory with wraps helping a lot of knee...

215 sore and fatigued from today vs 210 pre lockdown relatively fresh https://photos.app.goo.gl/MF6WzQaoe22oUj7Y9

Thought id try low bar squats again today.. but still back/lat/serratus pain/camp as the weighta get heavier. I know i should stick with high bar for now but i just dont learn lol On the plus side my daily max of 215 is actually on 5 kg off my sleeved low bar PR... which sadly i set in 2018...

Yeah, you're probably right. Also one of my clients making the best progress is Ewa. 60kg body weight, now squatting 130, benching 70 and deadlifting 150 I have her on a daily max approach, with different variations and minimal volume, then a lot of bodybuilding accesories. She comes from a...

215 high bar from today vs 215 low bar from exactly 1 year ago https://photos.app.goo.gl/B5EF8EpAKWU3HmtG6
