Yeeeeeeaaah Buddy- dave's log

Is it wise to be getting back into rugby as the comp is approaching? Looking back through yoiur training, there's a clear difference between training whilst playing rugby and training when not - when you are playing you're training usually suffers, either from injuries or fatigue. You've made fantastic progress up to this point, it would be a shame for it to grind to a halt just for a few games of rugby.

When is the Uni Championships anyway? I need to get that date in my diary.

21st-22nd nov LMC. We'll no doubt be lifting off on the 22nd sunday.
 
I agree with LMC about rugby, but I guess you enjoy it and have commitments. But play safe! :)

Only game I ll get to play this season mate because of my knee really, starting treatment next week and wanted to get a game in. Not playing or training now until after the comp. Going in to next week fresh and shooting for some good stuff, hopefully 155 x 6 squat, 125 x 3-4 bench and not quite sure on the deadlift.

Been sorting my life out PhD wise these last few weeks and im only just getting into a routine so hopefully everything will be sweet from here on out!

22.5kg to go.

"Been sorting my life out PhD wise these last few weeks" - I thought you were on the piss every night during fresher's week

Oh yeah obviously, but that was a deload week. Im trying to keep it to once of twice a week so it doesnt disrupt training.

Nice work Dave; lots of power cleans!

Strength - Power - Hate

Success breeds success

Everything looks good, squats are a funny one, once you get a style that works for you, i'm sure they will fly up. The back/ham strength is there for a big one!
