might Wanna Lay off too many overhead presses.
You gotta be careful with those shoulders. They are primed for tearing

The Tadalafil (Cialis) is for pumps, erection quality and the very mild reduction in blood pressure is a nice little bonus.You've got a nice selection of supplements and good products that help your organs.
Are you using the Viagra for any specific reason when it comes to your heart? Or is it more just for erections?
I appreciate the comment, but I’m not lean.131 kg looks really good. You are a huge dude. Wow. Could not even guess you weighed that much because you're so lean.
maybe not lean in your view bro but you look great @HeavygripperI appreciate the comment, but I’m not lean.
My height hides the weight well and I also don’t think I’m very good at taking a flattering photograph.
It's needed as a measure of progress. Not, as you do suggest, as an accurate measure of actual loadBodyweight today 131.3kg.
Leg day, not pushing much weight. The focus of my training currently is the bench press.
High bar barbell squats 4x8 140kg
Romanian deadlift 3x15 120kg
Leg extension 4x12
Lying hamstring curl 3x12
Standing calf raise 5x15
Going forward, If I don’t list the weight next to an exercise it’s because it’s a machine and given all machines have different resistance curves the weight imo is irrelevant and not worth mentioning.
@Heavygripper Great start to the log.........Hello all,
Mid 40’s.
Fasted body weight (this morning) 130.9kg at 192cm.
PEDs
Test e 750mg
Tren e 500mg
Deca 100mg
Mast e 200mg

Will introduce some orals 3 weeks from end of training block leading into PR attempt.
All gear is @UGL OZ

My goal with this run is to hopefully hit a 200kg bench, I have hit 180kg and 160x5.
I have no goals physique wise, it’s purely to PR my bench.
Calories wise, I’m not tracking. I eat predominantly clean, I hit 300 protein at an absolute minimum daily and weigh myself 4-5 times a week, not aiming to gain a heap of weight….but certainly will ensure I do not lose any body weight, it has been trending up slightly since I started this block.
Currently at week 6 of a 12 week training block and cycle, I apologise for not starting this earlier…..after this block I will assess a few things and will perhaps run another training block (approx 12-13 weeks) with the same goal.
Photos are from week one of this block at 128kg I will update with something recent soon.
Given this is not a physique driven run, rather strength focused don’t expect a heap of bodybuilding poses.
take some pics of the 170kgs bro please EVO family would love to see it @HeavygripperCardio/rest type day.
MMA sparring 30 minutes, then 30 minutes of rolling.
5 minute rounds, 30 seconds rest, sat one round out.
Will load 170ishkg on the bar tomorrow (bench), hopefully it moves nice and smooth - will be a good gauge as to how I’m progressing at the half way point of this training block.
Appreciate your advice bro.A few pointers.
1.
Let's start with the previous best 180kg. You're aiming for a 20kg jump. Larry Wheels and Josh Baker (+ one more 600+lbs bencher) all said they NEVER added more than 15lbs or 7kg a year on average. You're looking for 44lbs. So consider 5kg/11lbs added a target. You MIGHT be able to do 2 training cycles in a year and that allows for 1/2 your target of 10kg/22lbs. I've written on my own 'jumps'. 190kg hit between 2005 and 2011. Then I've gone from 190kg to 202.5kg sleeves only (just before I hit 60) in the 13 years I've lived in Wales. Again 5kg/11lbs per macro cycle. It'd still be a PB
2.
I see low numbers on squat etc. Like 140kg/308lbs (sets n reps). While HUGE numbers are not needed by bench specialists you'll still see decent numbers. Josh and Larry both have big numbers. At the very least 180kg on squats. Strong overall aids a strong bench.
3.
Shoulders. You MUST rehab this or forget any decent bench. Also if you look at any top bencher they do rotator cuff work (light). Jimmy Kolb (600kg/1400lbs bench does 1 plate).
4.
Strip out anything that doesn't help bench.
5.
Are you a wide or close grip bencher? If close work triceps BIG
6.
Work back BIG. It's what you push off. So I wanna see heavy rows (also works rear delts)
7.
Watch the volume on pressing, triceps and rows. They ALL affect the shoulders
Just as an FYI my 'bench CV': Age 16 about 90kg. Took a LONG time (plus doing other shit) to get to mid-to-late 40's to hit 190kg. Decided age 58 to keep hitting 170kg. Found I could do that 2-3x a year. Then more. So 190 became 200kg. Next was 202.5kg sleeves. Single ply slingshot 220kg. Max/triple ply F8 slingshot it's gonna be 320-340kg
big big training but dont know Rhys Keane bro @Mobster @RoidRage69 you know him? @HeavyGainsBody weight 130.9kg.
Upper session.
Bench press 172.5kg 1x3 meant to be a single (oops) but it felt light so I pushed 3 easy reps with one or two left in the tank.
157.5 2x5
Incline dumbbell press 2x15
Lat pulldown 3x15
Seated row 3x15
Triceps overhead extension 3x15
Triceps pull down - rope 3x15
I’m following a program designed by Rhys Keane (top ranked Australian powerlifter) so I’m not just doing random movements/sets/reps.
Watching this video from today has brought me to the realisation that I’m not really using leg drive well - something I need to work on.
Hope everyone has a great day.
Having trouble inserting the video, any tips would be appreciated![]()
