I rolled my IT's for a long time on the hockey ball, im kinda used to it now. Makes such a massive difference though!!

Just been to see the physio re: knee situation.

His analysis:

My back/hip flexors do all the work when I walk/do anything and my abs and glutes tend to only intervene on the odd occasion when they feel like it. This results in overly tight hips and IT band which pulls on knee cap and gives me knee pain.

Simples.

Good work sunday. Good day out. Hope Luke gets stuck in to more strength training... and gets his deadlift tech in order!

Since I made him start deadlifting two months ago he's gone from 180 to 230...not too shabby! I ll sort him out. 

Happy with my deadlifting, strength seems to be ok at the moment. Just going to take it easy for the next few weeks and hopefully put it all together in March.

Cheeky cnut!! Joint 4th I'll have you know. I can tell it hurts lifting the same overall total as me. Shame you fluffed the Log Press. 90kg should have been strightforward enough and I'd have been handsomely beaten.
 
How about next time you're down we'll have a Bench or OH Press + DL total mini-comp for offical bragging rights.

Rules:

• Unequipped (belt only)
• No hitching
• Not paused on bench but to chest (obviously)
• Our age difference = 1kg in body weight in my favour. So I make that about 14kg to play with. Any weight > the age difference gets removed from my total.

Winner gets to lord it up for a maximum of 1 month.
Loser gets to shut the fcuk up and stop whinging for the same time.
In the event of a draw, drug use will be taken into consideration.
Deal?

"Don't go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first." Mark Twain

If i thought I would be joint with you I wouldve taken a 255 deadlift for the win
 
Next time Im going to be home is after I get back from Tour, so not a chance of me doing any decent lifting then! Im also not pulling a max deadlift or attempting a heavy bench in the ****hole taro.
 
I say we do it like this:
 
Squat - me
Deadlift - me
Bench - you
Overhead - you
 
Draw still innit
 
My shoulders are getting bad again at the moment (left one is not good today) so I need to sort them out before I mount an assault on the pressing front.

Nice work on the comp bro! Logs are a bitch haha; tried one at a strongman contest I was helping out at; couldn't even clean the damn thing hahaha

Hopefully I ll hit a 600 at the GBPF meet. Im shooting for 570-580 in 2 weeks time so 6 months should be a good amount of time to make up the difference. What do you reckon attempts wise?

170/180/190

130/140/145

220/240/250?

Maybe more on the deadlift?
