Deadlift 240x5

Tonight was the first time testing the waters for the deadlift at the You have to put up a 5 rep max score on deadlift.

Didn’t actually know what I could do as first time trying this for a very long time. 240 actually felt pretty easy and probs could have squeezed out a few more if needed.

I think 250 for 5 would be a solid score on the day so will look to progress this over the next 7 weeks, who knows could potentially lift even more if the training block goes well 🙏🏽

LIFE UPDATE - MENS PRO DOUBLES ENTERED

So some will already know but since stepping away from bodybuilding at the end of last year i have just kind of been cruising in my own lane getting by with no real direction or goals set, which for me and someone who has been “training for something” for the last 9 years felt very off.

I wanted to still try and keep as much size as I can but improve my overall fitness. Challenge myself to get fitter, faster and stronger.

I then found the which out of all the hybrid competitions out there currently looked to suit me best and somewhere I thought i could be competitive.

Orginally i was going to do the singles event but every event was sold out. Which was annoying as I’d had already started my training for this.

However after serval conversions with the man with the worlds strongest glutes himself. We finally decided to team up and make a doubles partnership.

Very excited to be doing this along side ado as he shares the same mindset as me when it comes to training. He’s meticulous with his training and for those of you that know him will know that he’s incredibly strong this combined with the very athletic background he has he seemed to be the perfect choice in partner.

however, this is gonna be no easy task as we’re both lumps and haven’t necessarily been training for outright Fitness for the last couple of years however we are both extremely determined and when we set our minds on something we go all in

It’s not gonna be the longest prep for this competition, but you can count on us that we will give it our all and hopefully bring something very competitive to the table even within a short space of time

October 3rd in Liverpool we have our first competition wish us luck

A reason why so many people fail in the gym isn’t coming from lack of trying it’s simply because they don’t have something structured to follow.

We’ve all been there - no plan, no end goals, no routine. Just simply winging it or doing what feels good or just sticking to what you know which for a lot of people isn’t very much.

Thats my job as a coach to help educate you on what you’re doing wrong and how you can improve it. By simply adding in a training plan with clear guild lines of how to do it and how long you should run it for, combined with applying the progressive overload method.
