You missed out the "Jokes" part of my post :pfft: I'm not switching from conv any time soon, convy has been too good to me 8)

Deadlift hunt will probably resume with something specific following Smolov, hoping for a similar improve from Deads that I got for squats come Bbro time :nod:

:naughty: now now don't be like that...change is good sometimes

Yeah pretty good just set up the heights on a stack of 20's each side and my R leg is not hurting. Before doing conv I'd get to 100kg and I'd be feeling it in the glute. So far so good. :pray: Long may it last

But note to self...remove wedding rings before doing sumo...managed to spill a bit of claret as they dragged up the thigh :doh: :pfft:

Yay BB we made it! Well done! :clap: Nice neighborhood, lots of take away bars! 8)

Yes we did...but remember the only bars that count are the loaded ones :twisted:

as per my convo with the beast - your sumo tech looks great. Seems to suit you better already.

I predict 3plates and up coming out of this for you :wink:

Thanks H...I'm up for any advices on the sumo as this is all very new. Certainly not so beaten up by the sumo's.

Ohh would love to lift 3 plates...that is the goal to work towards.

Sound like me except I've ended up getting infected sinuses (as I seem to get chronic sinusitis if I do pick up anything that gets me phlemmy). Day off work but got organised an appointment with an ENT specialist on Wednesday thanks to work (TinyTraps mum) to get my sinuses sorted and a possible plan to sort them out for good.
