Thai; I'm starting work in London in September.. Gunna probs be living in Essex though for a while. Not as fun as running a sex toy website though

Boar; Moving down mid August mate, should be good.

strength hasn't gone down that much mate.

Weights are not bad - How long were you away from weights ? I remember you posting a lot here around 2004-2005

I haven't really trained properly at all for the last two years. In fact, the last two years have probs been the worst of my life! Still, lessons have been learnt and progress in all areas will be made...

Good weights for not having worked out for a couple yrs.

Cheers Thai, I would say i'm probably around 200kg DL and 90kg PP at the mo.

I no longer want to focus on powerlifting at the sake of overall fitness and health, I want to carry some decent size though.

My aim for the next year therefore is to;

Deadlift 240kg raw (5kg PB)
Push Press 100kg (10kg PB)
Get to 10% bf at some point
Get good conditioning
BW no more than 86-90kg

What books would you guys recommend? Which of Ross E's books should I go for?

Note; Got a months travelling planned to Argentina, but after that, i'll be looking at a minimum;

2x conditioning workouts
2x strength workouts

A week, maybe with some moderate cardio sessions too.

If you're always going to have gym equipment and only want to go for one...then Infinite Intensity.

I would go for the whole package though. Apparently all the books are good, and Never Gymless (the other one I have) is excellent for a change in routine. Even buying all of them it's only 30 quid I think, with UK shipping.

Quick session- under time pressure.

Deadlift, belt.

I would predict my deadlift 1rm is aroundf 205-210kg at the moment...
