30/04/11 - Saturday ME lower body day

This is the last heavy squat/deadlift workout, exactly two weeks out.

Got my bodyweight up to 116kg, should hit 118-120kg for the comp.
Think the suit is a bit too small for me.

1) Full gear Squat ME
Weight     Reps     Sets
Bar            10         2
60              5          1
100            3          1 - feeling very strong. 
140            3          1 - suit on, straps down, belt on.
180            3          1
220            3          1 - knee wraps from now on
240            F          1 - straps up, and got pitched forwards.
240            1          1 - easy, just needed to focus on pushing back.
250            1          1 - pb, slow but not all out.

Think I need to put the straps up sooner in the warmup. Otherwise I will bomb this meet coming up.

2) Wide comp grip bp (paused) 5 reps workup to a mod hard set
Weight     Reps     Sets
60              5           2
80              5           1
100            5           1
120            5           1 - added wrist wraps for this.

3) ME Rack deadlift, just below knees, at sticking point (3 weeks ago, was unable to break 250 off the pins)
Weight     Reps     Sets
60              5           1
100            3           1
140            3           1
180            3           1 - added belt
220            3           1
240            3           1
260            3           1
270            3           1 - new rep pb
280            1           1
290            1           1 - new pb  

Feeling very good for the comp. As long as I dont bomb on the squat, should be good for a 680-700kg total.
