Secondary bench press day this week absolutely delivered!
Hit 112.5kg for 3x3 on the floor press an all-time PB (so far) and it moved really well. Followed it up with some speed bench press work with 60kg in weight and black resistance bands to finish the session on a high in the first part.
What's even crazier is that this movement is now up 32.5kg over the last 12 weeks now!
Still plenty more to come from ME. ๐

ENDING TODAY'S UPPER SESSION THE RIGHT WAY WITH CORE WORK TO FINISH ๐ช๐ผ๐ฅ
Sara tried the TRX dead bug for the very first time, and she did an amazing job picking it up so quickly!!
Itโs not the easiest movement to get right straight away! She stayed patient, focused, and really took it on board. ๐ซฑ๐ปโ๐ซฒ๐ผ
Sessions like this are what build confidence and real progress over time.
Sperb work today Sara!! ๐๐ผ

THIS TIME LAST YEAR ๐ฎ
A couple of videoscreen shots from the 4 weeks out mark from the UKDFBA during the only show I did in 2025.
A few shots post session which was my favourite look during that prep at the beginning of May 2025!
What an experience doing back to back Preps, challenging and a lot hard work. Lesson learnt I'll definitely won't be doing back to back again in a short space of time ๐
Final heavy pull before Saturday May 9th ๐๐ฅ
195kg Deadlift during yesterdays Top set for a double rep set all-time PB! Most I've done was 190kg x 6 but with Straps.
Moved better than expected and confidence is building at the right time.
The aim is 220โ225kg for next Saturday at Burum Barbell. ๐๏ธโโ๏ธ
