3.16.07 leg/shoulders
I am doing a spontaneous powerlift comp in less than a month and still undecided whether to try full power, or just dead only.
I have not done a max on squat, nor bench sinceOct 06..soI thought I would test the waters tonight to see if I had lost too much.
squats 135x8, 135x8, 225x6, 275x6, 335x5, 375x3, 405x1..pretty tough..but maybe could of hit 3.
straps up 455x1, quite heavy, but a little more to give..next week will try again..if I can't nail at least a 500..I'm not going to bother full power 
front squat....I just cannot get comfortable with this as of yet...hurts my wrist..I basically am not really holding the bar in my grip..sorting of just pinching onto it 135x5, 155x5, 165x5..tough and awkward
leg ext one legged 4x10
leg curls 3x10
shrugs 135x10, 225x8, 315x8, 405x5, 495x5
no more shoulders..likely going to hit the log press this weekend

3.19.07 back/shoulders
deadlifts 135x8, 225x8, 275x8, 315x5, 365x5, 425x5, 500x7..then after about 45 secons catching my wind I placed the bar back in the rpower rack
standing push press 95x8, 135x5, 155x5, 170x5...matches PB then 185x3, slight assist needed to finish 4=5th rep..next week its mine!
good mornings barx10, 105x10, 195x10, 195x8 or so..
lat pulls with V bar to upper chest 3x10
one handed deadlifts with my new appartii, only a standard handle for now as my thick rolling handle is not built yet.
80x5, 115x5, 165x5, 200x3, 235x1, 270x1 all one handed with chalk
grabbed bar handle..without the handle..just the end of 2.5" bar and plates stacked below 80x5, 115x3 each hand
plate flips.. first time with this 25lb x8 per hand, 35x8 same, 45x6 two handed..easy did 3 or 4 each hand with one hand..some I just slowed down, some I stopped from hitting floor.
Very tough workout..and really pooped.

3/22/07
Its an off day, but I grabbed my log after my stepson and his friend tried it...surprisingly his friend whom is about 225 lbs, but does not train presses one rep...it only 67.5kg log empty.. I did 5 reps- Then they each tried my 260-270lb stone...neither one wa even close LOL I placed it twice to my 50+" platform...got a little soreless in my low back today..nothing major.
Likely go without squats today and try leg press, SLDs instead..or GMs..light !
Then a light bacl day on Monday, so I can train with my old team for a max dead on Friday..

BOAR - Maybe "we" can persuade you to cross over to Strongman
From the looks of it though you going to set some big numbers in PLfting they way your going. I refuse to let you beat me on all lifts !!! Time to get the deadlift up to keep you at a distance

Max Dead night..comp in 2 weeks
Going to get some vids of the possible 10+ lifters going to comp and possibly compose vids into a mega vid.
Hopefully will post vids this weekend..I really don't know what to expect from myself...not maxxed a conventional dead since
October 06...I did max a rack pull though I'm hoping I can still pull a 600
Strongman News- Bought me some solid 3" steel rods, 2" steel and some angle flat iron....I will take this and the few pieces of knurled Olympic bar I have and construct some farmers implemnts ! The sled will follow Now all I need is a place to put the stuff - I'm really considering getting one of these steeel carports (20'x21'x8'high) This will be a start then I can finish framing and add siding to the open sides..I need a dry, dirt free area to train stones, log, grip, etc...

Should be aiming for 280kg at least, 500x7 should have that in the bank.
Do you get 3 attempts like at a PL meet?

Why you got one for sale ?
I payed $65 for my titan in 2004..$147 IS $$$$, but if I knew I could get even 10kgs and be legal in single ply fed..it would be worth it!
Friday 3.30.07 DEADS...and only deads
135x8, 135x8, 225x5, 315x5, 365x3, 425x1, 465x1, 515x1, 565x1, 605x1..it was tough..but I was not 100% TBH
I believe I have a 280kg in me 
Maybe with one of them fancy Metal Deadlifter suits I have a 300kg in the cards...????? You like yours Tony ?
