well done ridley, what is the coan program. Iv been stuck at90kg bench for ages and
Would love to increase it.

The deadlift programme or benching one?:) I'll link both when I'm on the laptop.

The smolov bench is 3 weeks long and requires you to bench 4 times a week if I remember rightly. Coan has a bench programme too bit I haven't looked into it. Imnothim will back me up in saying the Coan deadlift programme works very good.

Hanley posted another deadlift programme he uses at RevFit in a thread I started called Deadlifting Programme if you want to search for it

180 x1 squat. Finally I've got a x 2 (ish) bw squat. It felt surprisingly comfortable too, I expected to feel like my head was going to explode like some 3 rep sets

In the gym yeaterday with a serious lack of energy but managed to squat 130kg x4 and 140kg x1 the most iv done before this was 115kg so was delighted. Also tricep press on the bench i managed 105kg on friday...

I got my first 60kg squat on Friday! Was pretty proud of myself considering that I went low enough to tip my butt off an upturned dumbbell.

Made some ground with weighted chins again this evening. I was pretty happy considering last night was a pretty demanding chest/shoulders/tri's session.

BW (81kg) + 10kg 5 x 8*
+ 15kg 3 x 6*
+ 20kg 2 x 5*

*(Sets x reps)

Did a solid enough 185 x 1 deadlift AND I have 'the sniffles! ' probably could've pulled 190 but got greedy and jumped to 195 and failed. Still, all good!

RidleyRider

Pulled 162.5kg deadlift x 1 this evening Was supposed to be x 2 but the second was glued to the floor. All the same it's a huge PR for me

Edit: Just posted video in my log.

36% increase and two reps. Take months off more often.

Pretty proud of this. Not a full planche by any means but making progress.

I managed a clean day after a horrible binge yesterday.....even the basics escape me sometimes!!

165kg deadlift today Delighted to say the least Also, 5 x 5 BW pull ups

Edited to add pull ups and what exercise the 165kg was :pac:

themandan6611

pull up record of 8 today from a previous best of 6, 10 is planned next month:-)

googled eyes

105 kg deadlift x 2 earlier on today.

First one felt easy so I just said fck it i'll go for another. Form felt **** on second so I didn't try anymore.
it's a PB by miles (considering i've never really tested myself deadlifting before).

Today is day 1 of not eating **** anymore, my diet is ok but i'm a demon for night time snacking, especially the sour jellies /skittles kind of snacking.( I could be back with my tail between my legs later if my wife goes to the local Tesco. )

I haven't been achieving much of late but have done a triple with 100 kg in the bench for the first time, previously I could only do a single with that weight.

Bodyweight up to about 78 kg now, I attribute this to farmers walks (and eating obviously)

BrianD3

107.5 kg @ 78 kg in the bench, paused and legal. Matched my PR. Not an impressive bench but good for me, my excuse is I have arms like a monkey

statto25

I ran 15 mins today for the first time in 5 months since I had the ACL in my right knee reconstructed. I was nervous as hell but took it easy and concentrated on my stride. I had legs like bambi coming off the treadmill though!

BrianD3

PR in the bench this morning - 110 kg @ 78 kg. Pleased with that.

Did this after what I think was a rep PR in the squat - 120 kg x 4, ATG paused.

RidleyRider

170kg deadlift!! Going for more in a few minutes:D

Failed 175kg.

Sangre

Bench: 105kgx1 @ 78kg

Successful attempt after I spotter. Spotter wouldn't let me get into position despite me asking him to move and then he cradled the bar the whole way down. Had a crap set-up then and it knackered me going up. Tried again a few minutes later with a better spotter and got it. Probably harder than it should have been thanks to first effort and hopefully there is more in me.
