I weigh 117kg (@6ft 3) so not too impressive, well good for somone whos not juicing, world drug free record for my weight is 290kg. I started when I was 16 but didnt know my body till maybe 4 yrs ago. Started deadlifting 2yrs ago, after maybe 5months got to 220kg(cool thing was it was just plain good food, no powders), then quit as I took up muay thai but changed again to cycling, after my 1st yr of cyling Im lifting again the past 2months and my deadlift is up to 210kg, the difference now is I am actually fit and dont get out of breath! Cycling gave me a new life.
I get a kick out of the stats side of training progress. Looking back thru my calender I can see what went right/wrong. ive never done a full 12months of consistent training so excited about the outcome, will be carefull not to burnout

Are you all bench pressing? I switched to olympic press, the hip drive at the begining of the lift seems to be of great benifit. I also noticed I can hit the heavy bag with more power!
You can do also push press which is like a cheat olympic press, bend the knees and then use the legs to drive the bar up rather than just driving the hips forward and using core,torso,arms. Allows more weight to be lifted but I suppose injury risks would be higher. -
I had a go with the wattbike stationary trainer after a meeting, it was late and I was wearing trousers and tired so will be interesting to try it again fresh. It measures up to 2400 watts I think, the pro version goes above. Resistance was set to level 6 and I think I saw above 140rpm. Im comfortable up to 180. I use 170mm cranks, they were possibly 165.
Im back lifting the past 2 months, got my deadlift up to 210kg(no straps or belt), 250kg is highly possible by summer. Had to stop with squats because theres a hip imbalance I think I need checked out so Ive been doing single leg press. Actually what I need to do is get flexible enough for the barbell to sit correctly on my back.
Ive always had a problem with squats.My plan is to do recovery sessions on the turbo but also kilo efforts, interval/mock point races etc.
The road machine seems like it would be great as it goes up to 3000watts and with the extra flywheel it should have a more natural pedalling motion.Ive been on my road bike(48:19)every day but havent been at the track with a large gear since summer.
Ill be charting my power readings with lifting numbers to see how they work. I guess its how you train the muscle to move and not just the weight it can move. It will be interesting to see how it works for me. -
I used a powermeter for the first time, wattbike trainer. Was wondering how much difference adding 20% to squat and deadlift 1RM would make to max watts? Is their some kind of forumula that deals with the 2?
Ive got some good advice re: training, will be using kurt kinetic roadmachine with pro flywheel,power meter & HRM so can plan/plot my improvement over time. Just trying to estimate where I will be at by May. Ive done that with my lfting numbers but not sure exactly what kind of watts/top end speed it will give me -
The bars Chris Hoy has been using were availble from Dolans ebay for a while at around £70, they only sell them from their own website now at around 3times that much.(velodrome shop also has them, Alpina track bars) The french sprinters seem to do ok with 42cm, does Hoy train with those 33cm bars? Ive wide shoulder bone structure and found 38cm to hurt after around 1km of racing, my tt was 2cm too short on that bike so it prob made it worse.
most comfortable Ive use is the last 3T pista released, deeper drop than nitto b123 and a little extra reach but they flex alot during standing starts and any time out of the saddle. 7075 t6 and 250g if I recall corectly.

it seems to be 38mm, Ill check again tomorrow when my eyes are less tired. I used a digital caliper and lined the centre line of the steerer against my a gap in my floor boards, then measured from the centre of where the axle sits in the drop outs to the floor board gap, very scientific!
