Next time tell your spotter to keep his hands off the bar until you finish the lift. It looks like you had it on your own, but…[/quote]
nahh it was all me. I didnt even realize he had his hands that close until I watched the video. He’s not my normal spotter, I had to workout at a differ time then my normal training partners, I’ve had him spot me before and he didn’t have his hands that close so I didn’t think of telling him. No worries though, this was touch and go and in the gym so its not official official. Wait two weeks when I do 320-325 with my normal training partners(:[/quote]
Nice lift, but don’t count it until it is true competition style. I have hit 320 for 2 touch and go, but my comp best came last week at 303.
I just joined and this post caught my eye cause my goal is to double my weight. 315 is just around the corner of that. I way about 150 and did 280 1 rep max the other day, fairly easy. I hope and plan to hit it by this summer. So I’m in.
I think I’m there, or just shy of it at least. Hit 303 for my third attempt (with a pause) at my meet on Saturday. This was a little bit of a fight, but it think I could have pushed another 5-10 lbs.
Consistently hitting 120kg for multiple sets of 4, 125 for triples and I benched 130 for 3 doubles last week (265, 275, 285lb respectively). I’m looking at doing a bench-only meet in April and smashing above the 140kg mark

Hit 245 for one this week. Whoop Whoop.[/quote]
When are you thinking you might be able to hit 315??[/quote]
I think It will be at least 6 months to do that. I’ll be happy if I make it in 5 I plan to keep gaining weight so that should help. The layers have worked well so I’m using a working weight in low 200’s going to add 5 pounds to the cycle this coming week.Top set will be 225.

You are more optimistic than me. We are sitting at about the same strength level (guessing) and I am just hoping for it by the end of the year. Maybe I will surprise myself though. Good job so far man and good luck.

Lol, you’re both more optimists than me I guess. I’m sitting at about 280 and 315 in my year end goal.
