Are you dieting now fatty?

Yeah, I don't want to be competing in the 105 division at only 96kg. I'm aiming for the 93 division. Plus I need to fit into my suit for my little bro's wedding, I was only 87kgs when it was made for me.

My goal is also the 93 division, I'm not interested in dieting down just yet though. How low are you aiming to get?

91-92kg to be safe. I'm mainly dieting so I can fit into my suit properly in April as I'm a groomsman at my bro's wedding.

Paz and I are now running the 5/3/1 with Singles version of the template which technically makes it 3/5/1 and we work to some heavy singles on weeks 1 and 3. 155kg is the heaviest I've benched in over a year and honestly it wasn't that hard. Stoked! I tweaked my back in the 3rd set when my foot slipped due to the rain.
Here's the first of the 155kg singles...

Solid benching! Once I get my belt I intend on starting the heavy singles on the 5-3-1 day, but on the 3x3 day I plan to rep max.

Lonely squatting...

5/3/1: cycle 6, week 1
Squats
3 x 140kg
3 x 160kg
3 x 180kg
1 x 200kg
3 x 1 x 210kg
3 x 5 x 160kg
Worked up to 3 heavy singles again. I almost dared myself to go for a new max but common sense took over. 200kg was deep as hell, 210kg less so but still ok. The 3 sets of 160kg should have felt light in comparison but they didn't, they were fukcing hard!

3rd and best of the 210kg singles...

I wouldn't argue about the validity of that squat freako, good job.

I've noticed that you're looking down when unracking the bar and that might make you lose upper back tightness in your setup and affect the whole execution. Same thing happened to me and since i'm correcting that i really notice it. I'm not telling you that it will make you squat 10 more Kg but it can make the process much more confortable ;) That's only my experience, whatever works for you is fine and of course a near-max lift will always look a bt ugly ;)

Cheers

Pullin' yesterday...

Deficit Deadlifts
2 x 185kg
2 x 215kg
1 x 240kg
fail x 245kg
4 x 4 x 185kg
I was out drinking til 3am on Sunday night so I'm going to blame that for my 245kg bomb. 240kg moved relatively fast albeit nastily. I'm going to set the numbers back a bit further next week I think.
