Defection from the Mother Land

[bar-belle]

your hitting some SERIOUS bench volume missy. what you wanting to hit (ideally) for test day?

Yip H it FEELS like serious volume, bench has surely gotta come up with that aye. Not sure if I will do it raw or shirted. If raw I would like to get 52.5kg that I missed last comp...a 55kg would be the bomb but we'll see. And in the shirt 67.5kg but at the moment I'm only getting to a 1 board at 67.5 and as you know there is a world of difference between 1 board and pause press. I'll just see where I'm at by week 8.

Gotta get my act together this week and register with NZPL :shifty: feels like a big step up!

Soooo tonight was Le Squats:

1x3x35kg

1x3x42.5

1x3x50

1x3x52.5

Add le squat suit

1x3x75

1x3x85

1x2x90

1x2x90

1x105 haven't lifted that heavy since early nov last year

1x105

1st 105 was slow descent and I could have come harder off the gear but I think it was just the weight on my back rattled me. 2nd lift was stronger, faster and good depth. So all in all pretty pleased with the suited work.

Raw:

1x2x35kg (just about flung it off my back on the way up felt like a feather compared to the last set )

1x2x42.5

1x2x50

1x2x57.5

1x2x57.5

It was pretty cool training tonight as two other girls that are competing at up coming comps were training and smashing some serious tin too. The girls dominated the squat racks. Yeeahh!!

Gave the hammies a good stretch, chucked back a few jet planes =P~, protein shake and home.

It's cool aye BB, when I did my squat marathon last week, a couple of chicks jumped in the cage next to me & repped out a few, and I thought 'shit you don't see this very often' was choice! Altho their depth was questionable... :pfft: :grin:
