First comp of the year is done. Very pleased with the outcome after the injury at my last comp of 2022 and the short turn around after rehab. Had an amazing day, with great people at an well run comp. Went 8/9 for a 512.5kg total, narrowly missing my final deadlift when it slipped from my hand before getting the down command.

2023년 첫 트레이닝. PR로 시작! Deadlift 4 x 2 with 245kg Final Set AMRAP 3reps(⭐️PR⭐️)
Interesting day yesterday. First time competing in wraps and it didn’t go to plan. Strained my calf on the first attempt. Missed my second and didn’t attempt a third. Bench was good though, but lost my footing during the unrack on the second and made a mess of the press. But came back for a solid third. Deads out of nowhere, were on fire though. 3 from 3 with a little more in the tank.

Slowly closing is in on my raw max. A bit of an unsteady day under the bar today. Now utilising the full the length of the wraps, which means tighter round the knee and a little extra attention to how I squat. Not a bad effort overall and in a really good place, with 10 weeks to go. 1 x 175kg 1 x 185kg 2 x 4 x 150kg #TeamBG #skwot #binch #didlift #skwotbinchdidlift #10weeksout #wraps #kneewraps #masters #squats #lifting #gym #a7intl #powerlifting #sbd #powerlifter #squat #bench #deadlift #buildingstrength #a7oceania #a7asia #a7canada #reps #squatbenchdeadlift #makingprogress #beardgains #tattoo
Well hello bench! Nice of you to show up to the party. It’s been a while since I’ve had the confidence, technique and strength to move this weight and I’m glad to be back here.

Wrapped squats moving pretty well today. Shame about the top single. My right wrap came loose during the descent. So it could have been better.

Got some lovely SSB squats today. 110kg for 4 followed up by 5x4 at 100kg. Then some bench and accessory work. Also I just gotta say, my friends know this, but I really enjoy @stoicgear stuff.

Pushing the safety squats, while I nurse a pec injury. Pleased with how the squts moved. I think it’s a PR for the SSB.

Movin some weight on a hot humid day. Deads are moving pretty well again. Built up to a top single of 185kg, followed by a set of 5 @ 165kg, then 3 x 155kg.

Back in the groove today. @brettgibbz asked that I focus on the technique, not chase the numbers and worry about where we are. Squats moving better, especially on the backdowms sets and deads humming along.

Good finish to the week. SSB - 5 x 127kg 2ct pause bench - 4 x 110kg Feeling good with these. Was slipping a little on the bench, so the puses were a bit quick and the last rep was slow.

Comp deads - singles @ 170kg and 180kg, followed by 4 x 4 @ 170kg Thought these didn’t move very well. But looking back on previous blocks, the weight is definitely higher than where it was at this point in previous preps. So overall pleased, especially with the quad issues late last year. #TeamBG #skwot #binch #didlift #skwotbinchdidlift #masters #lifting #gym #a7intl #powerlifting #sbd #powerlifter #squat #bench #deadlift #buildingstrength #a7oceania #a7asia #a7canada #squatbenchdeadlift #makingprogress #garagegym #homegym #homeworkout #garagegymstrong #garagegymlife #garagegymtraining #garagegymworld #homegymsetup #homegymlife

Solid day to day, but squats went from excellent to argh pretty quickly, as I over thought what was on the bar. Beltless deads moved well though. Comp squats - 1 x 160kg, 1 x 170kg 5 x 4 x 140kg (last shown) Beltless deads - 4 x 4 x 140kg Feels good to be back to a heavy single, after rehabing the knee and quad. Just a few adjustments, regain the confidence and I should be good for regionals. #TeamBG #skwot #binch #didlift #skwotbinchdidlift #masters #lifting #gym #a7intl #powerlifting #sbd #powerlifter #squat #bench #deadlift #buildingstrength #a7oceania #a7asia #a7canada #squatbenchdeadlift #makingprogress #garagegym #homegym #homeworkout #garagegymstrong #garagegymlife #garagegymtraining #garagegymworld #homegymsetup #homegymlife

Horrible angle, and not my best showing on bench, but 110kg paused still moved nice.

New year, new block and back on the comp specific lifts. First workout of 2022 feeling good. Comp squats - 4 x 140kg @ RPE 6.5, 4 x 145kg @ RPE 7.5 and 3 x 5 x 130kg RDL - 4 x 8 x 115kg A little lighter with the squats than I would like to start tge year, but came through the session with no pain in my quad or knee. So pleased with that and time to build. #TeamBG #skwot #binch #didlift #skwotbinchdidlift #masters #lifting #gym #a7intl #powerlifting #sbd #powerlifter #squat #bench #deadlift #buildingstrength #a7oceania #a7asia #a7canada #squatbenchdeadlift #makingprogress #tattoo #garagegym #homegym #homeworkout #garagegymstrong #garagegymlife #garagegymtraining #garagegymworld #homegymlife

🕸️ 🕸️ . Been awhile since I last posted anything training related because how can you post if you don't train? . Pretty decent session to dust off the cobwebs and not surprising that deadlift is the lift that's coming back the quickest despite being the only lift I've not done in 4 months. . Could it be because of my beast titan arms? 🤔 . Top single @ 175kg Back-offs @ 155kg . #thestrengthguys #bluetakeover #nzpf #howgood #bokunoheroacademia #myheroacademia #nsbb #plusultra #powerlifting #squats #bench #deadlift #science #nutrition #fitness #fitfam #fitspo #bodybuilding #physique #strength #weightlifting #a7intl #newzealand #auckland #a7asia #stoicism

Some sumo deads this week. Slight undershoot here. 5 x 150kg Meant to be RPE 7.5, looks more like a 6.5. Feeling good with hip mobility and no quad or knee issues. #TeamBG #skwot #binch #didlift #skwotbinchdidlift #rebuild #masters #squats #lifting #gym #a7intl #powerlifting #sbd #powerlifter #squat #bench #deadlift #buildingstrength #a7oceania #a7asia #a7canada #reps #squatbenchdeadlift #makingprogress #beardgains #tattoo #wcpanz
