So I finished week 8, but Ive decided im not going to re-test 1rm’s, mostly because im pretty sure they havent improved.
Week 8 day 1 I did a deadlift single at 285kg and it moved ridiculously slowly for what is supposed to be a relatively easy opener.
Not to say this training block wasn’t good necessarily, with my son being born 3 weeks ago a noticable change in sleep patterns could certainly be impacting my training.
However I feel like I need to take a break from the real heavy stuff, and also work squats back into my program now that my elbow feels alright.
As such I’ve just written myself a 16 week training program, forcing myself to do more offseason style training for the first 8 weeks with more accessories, higher rep ranges, and less time on the big 3.
The 8 weeks following will, of course, be a return to the usual SBD at a maximum of 5 reps.
Also have a good excuse to program lots and lots of curls since I signed up to a deadlift and curl novelty PL comp at Christmas. DL comp is standard one lift PL rules, curl comp has no weight classes and is all done on Wilks. Thinking I need to be doing 75kg+ for a shot at a win based on last year.
Lots of strict curls coming up.

Not enough curls for a Squats and Curls Offseason, step it up ![]()
Just got back to your log Pinky and this turned up…
Congratulations mate,
And at last a log with a curl emphasis.
Ha, as you said this I realised that despite having programmed curls for that session I’d forgotten to do them!
I will be doing them tonight though, and have more curls in next session too, don’t worry.
