Lol I thought that might be the case but I wasn't sure the colours were actually standardised.

£12.99 for one!? Your having a giraffe!

Deception, think I'll give that a go next week

mrthingyx, I always finish off the set with push press when my shoulders fatigue to the point of failure!

I was stuck on 67.5 for forever on SL 5x5, but since moving to Wendler and lowering my reps (well apart from the + set). I've managed a new 1RM PB of 80kg within 3 months, so yea, I love doing low reps for OHP

Check out the heavyweight bands... I was going to pick one up for travelling workouts, but the £zomg cost put me off...

Did squats last night, surprised they went up to be honest. Hoping it continues

Why surprised...?

 

[Delvis]

Why surprised...?

Cause I've not failed yet

going up in 2.5kg increments currently, seems to be working...Getting closer to my 1rm as well for reps

Dom, you're a beast. Really good lifting there.

 

[Delvis]

Nice one Dom

 

[Djdom56]

It's funny, because it was so long ago I now look at it and think that I could have done much better. Oh well, next comp is on Nov 18th near Birmingham so I can hopefully improve a little more for then. That one will just be a bit of fun and I'm not at the moment planning to cut weight so I'll be lifting in the 83kg class.

 

[mrthingyx]

Great stuff, Dom. I never tire of seeing you tiny BW guys shifting big weights! [/nohomo]

 

[tom_e]

Where near Brum? I wouldn't mind coming down to watch

 

[MoNkeE]

OcUK meet to watch Dom compete

 

[Freefaller]

Indeed. Amazing. Wish I had learnt to lift properly and started lifting earlier.

 

[radicalry00]

Awesome strength : BW ratio Dom. Nice work.

I'd come watch if it was local to West Yorkshire lol.

Agreed, would have benefitted so much more!

Good work Dom

 

[Djdom56]

That's the post code.

Ice will be doing it too, provided his adductor doesn't fall off in the mean time. We might even be in the same weight class .

How much do you weigh normally then?
