Stiv's Log of lifting

The federation I lifted in last year didn't mention anything about drug testing was planning on lifting in that maybe this year. I'm pretty sure there must be other non drug tested PL feds in the uk, I don't mind if I have to travel.

That would be the most efficient way to just adding size but for the moment I am concentrating on volume training up to 5 reps with my compound lift then using my assistance to burn myself out working in a higher rep range. Making noticeable gains so I'm sticking with it for now plus I just loving lifting heavy <3

2 days on 1 day off unless I'm too knackered from work, jeeze the pumps I've been getting while doing certain things is insane which can become annoying! :(
 
Legs this morning and slept in, only been awake for hour. Hate training at that time :(

Every set was very hard also feeling spaced out and sweating like hell. after watching video I think I need to sit back more, dropping body forward and losing a bit of tension on mid back. Also still got a little buttwink at the bottom, though I got rid of it as I get no pump/fatigue in lower back anymore.

Leg press

Tried to do single leg but left cheek said no :/

100x15
200x15
200xf 15-20 reps

Ran out of time as pose down was starting, getting some posing advice and having a look under good lighting. Making some gains legs were looking a lot better. My bf% has dropped a little in the past few weeks and weight is increasing again so I've to continue with what I'm doing.
 
I really don't want to nag you, but your problem is exactly what I thought it would be (the classic reason to use wraps for messier heavy sets). Your knees are tracking well inside your toes. That's partly because your toes are pointed out quite wide.

If you clean this up you'll be tighter in your back. Also, being tighter in your back and core will probably help there too... ;)
 
The weight was quite a shock from last time doing 140x3x7 no wraps so I wrapped up instead of dropping the weight. I'll drop the weight next week and try focusing on pointing my toes more towards north, noticed when I practice squatting with no bar I point my toes more north :-/
 
You've missed he point slightly.

The cause of your problem is not your foot positioning, although changing that will help.

You need to be getting your knees out significantly wider than they are currently. This is absolutely fundamental, and you really shouldn't be squatting while you're moving the way you are.
