So as you all know I compete in powerlifting, well I used to a lot more then I have recently! I decided to take a break from full RAW at the start of 2017 because of a hip condition I have developed which didn’t allow me to hit full depth in a squat, well it did but man did it hurt!!! I was in agony and the power out of the hole was compromised massively.

Anyway….Fitness Worx will now be hosting the 2017 Savage international powerlifting meet in December, which I will now be competing in, I know I do my Video Vlogs a lot but I am also going to track my training within this BLOG, why….So you guys can follow the sessions and also see how im going to get from where I am now, to where I want to be!

So how am I going to do it… A coach who programming is pretty damn hard!! Oh and Eliot, my brother and the rest of the FWX Gang!

Powerlifting is not easy and the weight I want to hit are going to be a struggle! They are really going to push me but I am looking forward to hitting some big weights (For me anyway)

I am going to be as honest as possible and if my session sucks…you will know! If my sessions is great…you will know! We all have strong and weak days so I can see there being some ups and downs…..I just hope to stay injury free…..

Current Stats 

Height – 5ft 10
Weight – 102kg

Bench – 200
Squat – 280
Deadlift – 280

What I want to hit!

Bench – 210
Squat – 300
Deadlift – 300

This will give me a 810 Raw total…..

So below is one of the hardest Deadlift sessions I have done! Me and Eliot actually accidently added an exercise to the workout which wasn’t needed! That’s why my lower back wanted to break and I nearly ended up with another herniated disk……My deadlift has always been one of my weakest lifts so I had to smash this session with everything I had!!!

Deadlifts Cluster set, Banded. 220kg!

This means, deadlift a single with a band, Take the band off and hit a double! All the way to 10 Reps!!!! DEADDDD.
