I've been reading a little on Abadjev. Do you think his principles could apply to all lifters or only CMS/MS+? Interestingly enough there's a top rated UK lifter who seems to do all of his work on fundamental lifts at 90%+ and then lower on accessory. He bases his lift numbers etc on prilepin. My gut tells me CMS/MS+, but of course I have no idea. It is interesting to note that Abadjiev actually took some of his philosophies from the training of the American powerlifters in the late 60's and early 70's. The next few months will tell the story for sure. I am faster at all percentages, so I am hopeful that I will begin to break my own raw records in training and thus in competitions.

Eric, How do you like the Titan Super Centurion. From what I have read it sounds like an awesome suit. The regular stance Super Centurion that Pete built for me fits me like a glove. It took me 2-3 sessions in it, but I must say that I really like it! If you have any specific questions about it, just ask!

USPF Nationals: I had my suit straps taken in a total of about an inch on each side 2 days before the meet; and the result was that I bombed with 606 in the squat. It was a rookie mistake and I of course should not have done it. That is all I have to say about that.
Week #28
06 July 2009 (Mon A.M.) 1. Squat: 50% x 3; 60% x 2; 70% x 1; 80% x 1; 85% x 1; 90% x 1; 100+% x 1 {training PR} (10) 2. Wide Grip Bench: 50% x 3; 60% x 2; 70% x 1; 80% x 1; 85% x 1; 90% x 1; 92% x 1; 94% x 1; 96% x 1 x 2 (13) 3. Reverse green band deadlift: Worked Up to A Max (10) R.A.W. United Meet August 1st.

NIce one Eric, that is a big raw total! Are you going to stay a 181?

Great lifting Eric! 485 RAW squat at 171 BW is pretty damn cool! The deadlift is impressive as always, and the bench looked solid.

Brought the squat stance out a bit Eric? It looks good. BIG pull.
