Man… now i remember why i stopped lifting equipped! It hurts so bad… First time with straps up on squat in 2,5 years. Not heavy weight, but i can’t use my power because i’m not used to this shit… So starting off easy.
Spen much time getting on my brand new deadlift suit. It was really tight, but got in stretchet a bit when lifting. Light weight, but hard to grab the bar because i use straps because of the hand… So it will be way much easier when not using straps!

Thanks! Deadlift has always been a good movement for me. Gonna do some strong lifts in this new suit
Well i only have 2 meets left this year. The first meet will be equipped, and the christmas meet raw. So i hope for a 650kg raw at the christmas meet. Don’t know yet what i’m capable for in suits for the meet in october…

Bench press was easy and good technique. Going up 5kg every session.
My training partner tried a shirt for the first time ever today, my katana. He ended up doing a repetition on 185kg, not going all the way down. He’s only about 83kg bw. The best first-time shirt lifter i have ever seen!

Yeah you should try that! But it can be really tricky getting the technique correct, so get together with someone that knows the shirtbench well… But it’s really fun when you get a strong lift

Felt some pain in my lower back during squats. It’s probably from all the paused squat… So i was careful squatting. But deadlift always feels good for my back for some reason So no pain deadlifting, it just got better! Guess i’m not built for squatting, only deadlifting…
So today i did deadlifts without straps! That’s why only 1,5 reps on 250, i lost the grip in my right hand half way up. But i’m so happy that i’m able to deadlift ordinary again!

Had strong pain in my lower back today during squats, so had to be really careful… Hurt bad when sitting in the hole. But deadlifting did not hurt, it only made my back feel better!

Since i can only bench press at the meet next week, i just started a new powerlifting routine, raw in squat and deadlift, shirted in bench press. My back still hurts, so i squatted really carefully. As usual, the deadlift only made me feel a lot better!
I plan to do a strongman competition the first weekend of august. This routine will finish off just before that, so it’s good timing. Gonna start up again with the suited squat and deadlift after that.

It’s getting better, but the grip is crap… Still stiff and swollen, but i try to do the best out of it… So glad i’m able to deadlift and power clean again
Smolov jr or the ordinary? In squats only?
Smolov is always fun hehe Hard but you always gain something!
