…whoops. Felt good and wanted to work up for a small confidence booster session ahead of the peak.
Bummed with the 240×1 since the 220×3 and 230×1 moved so well. Numbers off those estimated 250kg. Lost shape with 240 as you’ll see in the vid.
Bench felt pretty crueddy. Not massively confident of 160kg at this point. Will do 6 weeks of upper back work to see if  I can save it.

Not much to say there. Just a session done to get a session done.
Deload finished.
12 pubs tonight.
Messing.
Bodyweight at 100kg.
Target for this comp is to get a top 10 wilks score. That means I need approx. 695 @ 98kg.
Breakdown of 250/160/290 would be a perfect day.
Attempts looking like;
230/242/250
150/155/160
260/280/290
…that’s all assuming I didn’t peak early and fall off the back of a cliff now.
Peak starts next week.
