Quite pleased with the pulls, until I realised that they’re 80kg below my best single! Apart from that, progressing well.
I’ll be working with Mike Tuchscherer in the coming weeks, and am looking forward to seeing what he comes up with for me. Stay tuned loyal and adoring readers.

Pretty happy with this; the 115x4 was a tough set, but this is getting closer to where I’d like to be before starting working with Mike.

enjoy the deadlifting/squatting X million variations x million reps x 4 times per week
Hahaha - I’m really looking forward to it. Never worked with an online coach before, and trying to make it up myself hasn’t been working for me! Mike said I’ll be starting next Sunday, so will keep this log up to date and copy it onto the RTS site.

Was a little disappointed not to manage 4x4 with 75kg on the push presses, but the rest of the session was very good.

Nice one mate - very close to the 600kg total now! What were your lifts?

Pleased with the squats. All the sets with 150kg were performed with very solid technique; the double with 160kg wasn’t hard in terms of weight, but my knees caved in on the second rep. I’d rather not grind out a very nasty triple, so racked it and dropped the weight.
As for the step-ups, I put a block under my heel (as per recent T-Nation article) and found that made the exercise much tougher!

That’s awesome! Why aren’t you posting anymore, we were having a race if I do recall!
