About Me

I competed at IPF Jr worlds 2013 where I won a bronze medal in the deadlift with a lift of 282.5kg. I am ranked fourth of all-time in the Canadian Powerlifting Union.

Week 2/9 - Sunday

Needed to get in 2 sessions today but only had before 3pm so they were only seperated by like 90 minutes or less really..

Squat:
235 x5
285 x5
335 x5
375 x5
*belt
415 x5 - the type of set that makes it all feel worth it.  Moved SO well :)
*wraps
455 3x5 - the 2nd set in particular was phenomenal.  Felt like RPE of 7.5 or so on that set so that reallllly makes me happy.

Bench:
225 x5
255 x5
285 x5
300 x5
315 2x5
330 5x2
Not bad.  The 2nd set with 315 was slow but all the doubles with 330 moved great.

Deadlift with fat bar:
295 4x6 with alternating mixed grip

If anyone cares about my weird deadlifting lately it is because I have been having problems with my damn rib again and I really don't want to make this a lifetime issue.  As a result, I have taking some time off and now I am working to fix issues:
1. Imbalances from always mixing the grip the same way
2. Poor grip from over use of straps
3. Poor tightness in upper back as a result of now squeezing the bar because of overuse of straps

So my fat bar deadlift makes it pain free and makes me feel way tighter.  Hopefully within 3-4 weeks I will be back into the 200kg+ range pain free and in tighter form.
