    40kg OHP dude :eek: Shtrong.

    Could easily have been 40 x 3

    Could be some competitions by end of year. OOOOO
    Found an old cert and I've added 20kg to each of my squat and DL and about 10 to my bench since.
    It'll be exciting having something like that to work towards

    Not sure between Sept and Dec. I uhh need to do some work to make weight so Dec might be more sensible. I'll talk to coach and see. Maybe both YAY

    Edit: oo I missed there's 2 in Sept. No idea either or!
    What about you??

    Basically the same to be honest. September would be ideal location wise but not even sure I’ll be vaccinated by then and still want to work on a few things I’m not happy with before I compete too. Want to make sure I’m in a position to hit a big enough total to qualify for nationals.

    Qualifying for nationals, exciting!

    I think if I got a 360 total I'd be very happy with that. Prob a bit ambitious. 350

    Focused on ankle, hip, and t spine mob today instead of lifts. I didn't think my hips were that tight til I did a few of the gmb stretches especially the frog one. Jaypers

    I would put money on the left leg being a mental thing. Only cos it sounds so familiar.
