did you have many people lifting in your category by the way?

good to see back squats nailed on a regular basis!

[Konstantin]

Great result, well done!!

[ninearms]

did you have many people lifting in your category by the way?

Nope! Just the guy that won! There are hardly any M35 85kg lifters at the moment, and only 2 that qualified. Still, you can only beat those you lift against, and you can only lift against those that qualify.

[JP]

absolutely!

never lifters fault if the numbers are thin. The guy above you is a realistic target to chase too.

Curls looking good.
I often dream back of the day I won the All Ireland Championships of the Irish Drug Free Powerliifing Federation.

[ninearms]

So what comp will come next?

Nothing until November probably, at least there's nothing on the BWL calendar until then unless I lift as a guest somewhere.

Curls looking good.

Plan is to hammer the fat bar curls at the end of every session now. Couple of sets of 15-20 just to make me look jacked for half an hour.

Are you enjoying training in your garage?

[ninearms]

Are you enjoying training in your garage?

Yeah, at least most of the time. For squats, presses etc it's not really any different to when I was training in a gym or club as I trained those by myself 95% of the time anyway. For the snatch/C&J it's definitely different lifting by yourself with no one to trash talk you, especially when it's heavy, but hopefully the new program I'm putting together with go some way in countering that. Morning sessions are great though - get up, make some nice coffee, have breakfast, stick the radio on, quick in and out session with the radio on whilst drinking the aforementioned coffee. Not even planning my weights in the mornings, just go in with a rep/set scheme in mind and go by feel. No psyche up, no straining, just bang out the reps.
