wozza2k's pursuit of vanity

Think theoretically I should be able to do 5x5 125kg squats but there is a mental/confidence issue which I need push pass :(. In other news feeling slightly more confident with the deadlifts so pushing myself on that front, will try and get a video up soon incase I'm doing it really wrong.

Not confident on going for that 4th rep on Squats, not sure why. On the other hand confident with upping weights on deads :confused:

Hepburn doesn't sound half bad, problem I'm going be stretched for time soon due to studies starting up again.

I'll going to do try a 1RM of 140kg tomorrow and then drop the weight back down to see how it goes, I'll probably aim for 6 x 2 on 130kg after if all goes well, good plan?
 
Sure you know this, but build with singles, first. :)

Then yes: 130kg for doubles... Sounds like an aaaaaaaaawesome intro to RSR.

BOOOOOOOOOM! :cool:
 
So I did a 1RM test on squats today in the hope of making 130kg feel easier. Well I managed the 140 lift but the 130 following certainly didn't feel that much easier, not sure if doing this session whilst fasted was a good idea but good to know I can manage 140.

Rest of the session suffered but I guess that's to be expected?

Video of 140 & 1st set of 130 for form check below. I noticed as I re watched the video my right leg goes a bit weird? Sign of imbalances or mobility?

Buddy... that it some mighty fine squatting. :cool:

You easily had another 130kg, too. :)

Great work!

The feeling of exhaustion after a 1 RM is not unusual, so 130*5*5 next round should be q doddle in your head. ;)
 
Another mediocre session, didn't feel strong enough to get that 3rd rep in on squats so pushed for 6 x 2. Deadlift however felt good and comfortable.

Another weekend, another fasted session. All went pretty well, making progress towards 5 x 5 on squats, thought I be a bit cautious on the deads just to check form, bunch of form check videos below, feedback hugely welcome :)

Floor press as bench was busy, going to keep row at 60kg for a few sessions to tidy up form
