Have just started doing powercleans instead of pendley rows which I started off doing. Competed in my first powerlifting comp at the end of June, where I came second in the U23 age group (totaled 505kg; Squat 180kg, Bench 105kg, Deadlift 220kg) in the Yorkshire and North East Unequipped Powerlifting Champs (British Powerlifting Federation). Have my second comp coming up (2nd of Oct) where I hope to qualify for the British Unequipped Champs (total: 550kg in the 110kg weight class). Shooting for a 200kg Squat, 110kg Bench, and a 240kg Deadlift.
My routine is linear progression SS which has been a little bit modified for my weak bench.
