Poll: Gym Rats New Year Training Session 2012 *** Confirm Attendance please ***

You're still a beast, even with a surgery shoulder!

Hell, I can DL my weight, but nothing else

It's all about the 2 x BW lifts

 

[Skillmister]

We will see how you guys squat heavy my ass is 5 inchs from the floor full squat then pause and lift, no half squatting men! Plus i cannot get my left arm over the bar so have to use a strap on the bar and hold it 4 inchs down, looks very risky on heavy squats but am used to it (only been back squatting for 5 weeks so only doing about 160kg reps assisted).

Its a pity i cannot do a 180kg bench for you as well haha only back up to 140kg bummer

5 inches off the floor?! that aint happening unless i go super wide. parallel is fine

One day maybe

 

[Batf1nk]

I might attempt a DL pb. It's back day for me anyway. I haven't done a proper DL for a couple of months though. Been tending to do stiff legged and Romanian DL.

Infact, I'm not even sure what my pb is?

You'll still be the strongest one there. I'm an ATG man too, but for competition as long as you're getting parallel then that's all good!

However, I struggle to just hit parallel, I always go below.

It's all about the 2 x BW lifts

Can't do it for bench. 1.3x at the moment
Can do it easily for DL. 2.35x at the moment
Not quite back up to it for squats. 1.74x at the moment

[Skillmister]

Can't do it for any, yet I'm too heavy for my strength! (not the other way around )

[icecold]

My attendance is not looking good

The issue has been the family funeral that's happening tomorrow (fri) up in Manchester. I've not been totally sure what the arrangements are in the afternoon, but it's possible that there will be a meal.

If I don't make it, we need to arrange another asap. I am looking forward to abusing you all

Steedie, what time are you going to leave?

 

[Skillmister]

You suck. How will a meal stop you going?
