You do know I'd be in the same weight class as Oleksander Kutcher, though? I don't think bodyweight counts for as much on the deadlift as the other lifts so it's just a nice marker in the sand for me. Anyway, I think I've reached the top end of what I can do for the moment on the conventional deadlift, so I've switched over to sumo for a bit. I hate sumo, so it's probably going to do me a lot of good... On the bench, I actually worked up my 3 x 5 sets of 90kg and hit 94kg on the last set, which definitely felt close to my 5RM. As you say, I think I am comfortably over 100kg for a 1RM now but 110kg seems a long way away! You're welcome to come down to the Midlands and shout at me if you think it would help, though :-) Thanks Rob. You do know I’d be in the same weight class as Oleksander Kutcher, though?

Your strength is coming along nicely, a 2.5BW deadlift is just awesome. I would be world record holder if I could do that! I think your bench would be over 110kg if you had someone shouting at you! Especially with the 90x5 for 3 sets. Have you tried a max recently? With those poundages definitely Cheers Rob Chris, top workouts mate!
