In for Wookie vs Ironman squat battle

Brett Pulled 300 at the CDPA Champs in April, it was the first time he had pulled 300 in a comp. Like Phedder said at the commonwealths he was securing the win and the record, I was looking after both that day Brett and Jamie, the 285 was to bank the record he could have got a bit more, but why miss the record for the ego.  

He has had a few shots at 300 in comps but came up short, he had pulled 300 in The House about 3-5 times maybe more there are vids of the last few weeks where he was doing 300 302.5 respectively.  The earlier 300s were done when he was fresh, in a comp you are fatigued thats why you miss the gym lifts at a comp.  We started to work on doing them when he was fatigued before the CD Champs, leading into the worlds he was doing his 3 main lifts in one session thats where he started hitting the 300s consistently the last session he was going for 310 but we stopped at 280 he was just feeling a bit tight that was 2 weeks out.

Here is a vid 3 weeks out his lifts were Squat 280 @ 2.29 mins,  missed his Bench that day but it was 180 he did 182.5 the week before and 302.5 Dead @ 4.35 

 

 

Here is his last workout wher he was a not feeling 100%

Perhaps you could get Brett to guest Blog Old Bull?

I would be very interested in seeing how he structures his training, programmes, percentages, peaking etc.

^ Good thought. *yes3*

He logs on PH. It's nothing complicated at all, I don't even think he has a program or anything written down. Just goes heavy arse reps without a belt for a few months. Then chucks on a belt goes heavier for reps then pulls back to triples and singles a few weeks out. Deloads then BOOM magic happens.

whats the point of deloading?

whats the point of deloading?

Going in fresh, no DOMs, muscles full of glycogen, CNS in good shape....

Some only do pre-comp week off but you can build in a partial deload every 3-5 weeks if going balls to the wall.

Like Nate said most here deload every 4-5 weeks especially with a heavy 12 cycle into a comp, it shows by numbers on the platform, 2 good deloads and PBs happen, get it wrong just another wasted 3 months and a average comp.
