Powerlifting Log

Gym tomorrow AM. Will just be light full body session to keep me ticking over til comp on Saturday.

Been thinking about lifts/openers. It is basically a PL rules comp with a log press too. Going to take a 90kg log and leave it there. Squat 200 opener, 220 and then pass 3rd. Bench 150, 165 and then possibly a PB attempt of 177.5. Deadlifts 270, 285 and then if back feels OK 300

Taking the rest of the week off the gym and then on with plans. Next block of training is going to be 6 weeks based off German Volume training. Calories will be thrown at it as well so hopefully see a decent gain in weight going into next year.
 
So I trained today for the first time in a week or so. Push session which went well. The plan for the next training block is to increase
volume a lot and hammer more accessories with a view to adding some muscle and building up a solid foundation for next year. Also currently swithering as I am seriously tempted to take a year out of powerlifting and do SSM u105s... Will no doubt change my mind a few
times on this in the next week or so before sticking with PL since it is easier lol.
