Matty, looking at the Paul Carter info. Looks like the Big 15 might be perfect for my meet peaking thanks.
That’s a solid session Matty. I’m going to start doing back off sets for my oh too. I should have noticed already but is this a four day split?
Bands? Someone is getting fancy on us.

Damn, you’re not turning into a gear whore are you? Might have to give up the gun carrying Broski Card. Just kidding…
Am I the only one who thinks there is something fundamentally not right about lifting heavy weights while body parts are numb?
My useless personal opinions aside, have you thought of asking BigBen why he doesn’t train with wraps? (I know he uses them in the actual meet)

Hey Matty. I have these wraps and I have to work very, very hard to get them tight enough to make my lower leg go numb. I guess they are more smedium-core instead of hardcore. I like the stability though. What happens if you don’t crank your wraps down so hard?

You mean Im NOT FAST ENOUGH??? Damn maybe I shouldnt of quit my job! 
One day when you find time, will you explain to me why you are doing 351 as a opposed to 531.
Thank you in advance Speedy Gonzalez.
Joe - No problem, I plan on using it myself closer to meet time.
James - Im actually doing 531 for PLing, my first day is an OH day to avoid the traffic of international bench day. Of course I have bastardize any program I do so I also squat every session, Monday 5x5 Squat, Wed Front Squat 5x3 or 3x5 and Friday Squat 351. I combine Squat and Bench 351 day. I generally am following the off season PL template.
PG - I always use bands for tri kickbacks and bro curls brahh. Seriously though I have been using bands for a couple of years now off and on and pretty consistently for benching. I have to agree with you with regards to the wraps, I can “wrap” my head around the aspect of having a heavy load on your back when you cant feel your limbs. Obviously I am doing something wrong. It would be a great question for Ben…its a really bad idea to compare yourself to people because it gets really depressing when you see that kid DLing 750 lbs and you say to yourself WTF!
Git - LOL, I think smedium core would be good for my smedium core squat. It seems if I dont crank the wraps so tight they lose any real effect. I have read in alot of places it takes alot of getting used to, however I stopped using wrist wraps because I had the same loss of feeling in my hands when using them…I will experiment with them until I get it right however because in the long run I think they will be beneficial espescially come meet time.

I thought I had that 315 my legs had it but it started to slip from my shoulders and my lower back couldnt lift the load…I will get this fucker, it was my first time trying this weight with the FS…
ah man! i thought you had it.
here’s an annoying question-how do you weight your pushups? just pile a bunch of plates onto your back?
