Those WO looks nice and quick

How long time do you spend in the gym?

Yea if I don’t do any accessories then the actual lifting takes just over an hour. I’m pretty liberal with my rest between sets though and could do it in under an hour if I needed to. Including my mobility warmup and accessories I’m usually in there 90 minutes

Smooth 220 with slot of accumulated fatigue has me hopeful that this training block has actually improved my garbage squat.

Just had a look back to the first couple of workouts and the competition:
bench 150x1 - 160 now
squat 200x1 - 220 now
DL 220 - 240 but multiple singles. 280 now

matching the comp lifts in a fatigued state - well done mate :slight_smile:

Thanks man. Heres hoping to some small comp PB’s off the back of it!

I think you’ve hit so many 1 reppers with high intensity, that once you’ve done a deload you’re in for a PR shower

Aaaaand I’ve pulled my lower back and everything has literally just seized up. Hopefully it’s a 2-3 day setback not a 2-3 week setback (or 2-3 month set back like last time).

Stupid extra stiff bar.
