Centurion's 2014

TheCenturion · 8 Jan 2014 at 15:42

New year, new log.

Aim of this year is to build my squat, deadlift and bench to nice, juicy numbers. Got a lot of work with respect to mobility but will have to take that one step at a time.

Diet is non existant. Being a poor student with a sporadic lifestyle, diet is proving very difficult to pin down.

With the meet coming up soon, I'm hoping for some serious peppering and a deadlift pb of 100kg (currently 95).

Let the gains commence!

In.

How do you grip the bar on Squats?

Deadlifts, MOAR numbers

Good work, TheCenturion

70*5 in scuzzy trainers = 100kg flat.

18th is coming... :cool:

Brah you are literally opposite of me, I can't DL for cookie but can squat ok! I fully understand your feels

Delvis · 15 Jan 2014 at 18:12

How was 97.5? Least you're lifting your current PB, I cant seem to get near mine now.

Delvis · 19 Jan 2014 at 15:43

Congrats mate, got a video somewhere benny put on my phone, rear angle but did you want it?

Delvis · 19 Jan 2014 at 16:19

Ill upload and post here then.

mrthingyx · 19 Jan 2014 at 16:56

Very nice lift, The Centurion. More please.

As well as my comments in the Bro-down thread, there is a steady bit of hip rise too. Get real tight against the bar and drive through the heels, keep your back & lats solid and it'll come up off the floor like a charm.

Looks like a beneficial session.

Interesting weight for your internal/external rotation, what are you doing these on?

BennyC · 21 Jan 2014 at 22:21

As in high but I guess each cable machine varies, and when I was last doing these it was for RC rehab so I didn't want to activate deltoid, so these may well be fine for standard int/ext rotation work.

icecold · 23 Jan 2014 at 07:41

What is the internal/external rotation work you are doing? Also, why?

5 reps with 80% isn't too shabby for deads.

Ah, I should have explained better.

I meant that you are missing external rotation mobility.

It's always good to strengthen your external rotators (they will be partially switched off by your mobility deficits), but it's a different thing. Look up YTWLs, as they're a more complete smashing of the shoulder (form thread has links I think).
