  • Had my first try at 5*3 60kg bench today (was excited about it cos its the big plates lol). Managed 3 sets but had to drop after that, and even then 57.5 felt impossible

  • Nice. It's a good feeling when you get to replace a bunch of small plates with big ones.
    How much rest were you taking?
    Do you have a spotter/rack pins, so your safe to attempt the last few reps?

    I had bench with 3x5 @69kg and 5 min rest between working sets this morning, so looking forward to the next session at 70kg and simplified plate math .

    Heavy deadlift 5@130kg.
    First try using wrist straps and took ages to get them in place. Over thought it all and just managed an inch off the floor. Tried again 5 minutes later and got the full set... roll on 140 in seven weeks time
