2016 New Years Training Resolutions

[Walter Palmer]

Buy a new pair of Air Monarchs.

I have a whole bunch of goals, some of which may be likely in 2016.

Deadlift 605x1, 500x10 (current max 585x1)
Bench 365x1 (current max 345x1), 315x5
Press BW (~255, current max 225), 225 for reps
Curl 185x1 (current max 170), 135x10
Squat 405x20*

* One of my big, long-term goals is to squat 405x20, just because I think it is a pretty neat feat of strength. I don't know whether it will happen in 2016 or not - it depends on how quickly the 605 deadlift comes. Once I get the 605, I'd change focus towards pursuit of a different goal, either 405x20 or the OLY lifts.

Getting closer to a 200lb curl is of utmost importance as well.

2016

Fix my deadlift.
Bench press 475
Squat 600
Get the 40-44 100% Raw total record for Illinois for 242 lbs class. I already got it for 275. I need to do this before 5/26, since I'll turn 45.
Learn the hook grip.

[pbetros]

- Milk my LP (and subsequent weekly increases) for all I can
- Keep good form and stay injury free as weights get heavier
- A respectable bench press (subjective yes, but hesitant to put a number on it for now)
- Convince my parents to start barbell training

[lou t]

1st place in 2016 nationals - came in 2nd this year
break american records for squat, deadlift, bench and total
squat - 375
bench - 270
deadlift - 400

but the most important goal that without being successful, none of the others will happen;

I MOST AVOID INJURY

[ud2o]

End next year stronger than I end this year. I made some good 1RM progress this year: BE 210 to 235, PR 150 to 170, SQ 335 to 415, DL 435 to 465. Would be great to sit down injury-free this time next year to be able to add another 10 percent or so to each.
