Finally, the moment I had been looking forward to for a while; an equipped training at Wim\u2019s in his exclusive one of a kind Wim Wam Gym.<\/span><\/p>\n

This was my second equipped training in preparation for the SBD cup, while it was my first training using my bench shirt.<\/span><\/p>\n

First things first\u2026<\/span><\/span>
\nWe started with squats, and after an easy raw warmup, I suited up. Today\u2019s plan was one heavy set after warmup. Wim instantly noticed I was going to need to make some technical adjustments to reach depth without losing power. So we decided it would be more beneficial to keep the weight relatively low and do a few more sets to get used to Wim\u2019s technical adjustments. Wim\u2019s adjustments made squatting equipped feel much better and less strenuous.<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019m too $. \u20ac . X .Y.\u00a0 for my shirt…<\/span><\/span>
\nAfter squats, we wasted no time and proceeded with bench press. Before equipped bench, I prefer not to do too many warm-up sets<\/em>; as too much pump makes getting into my shirt a real challenge ?. Hence, after two warm-up sets (70 and 100 kg), I proceeded with equipped sets. My sole goal today was to get the bar as close to my chest as possible. At set five, the bar was a mere centimeter away from my chest, so I was quite satisfied.

As I will be deadlifting equipped next week, I decided to only do a few easy sets this training.<\/span><\/p>\n

Gains and Fun\u2026<\/span>
\n<\/span>All in all, I am very happy with today\u2019s training at Wim\u2019s. We had a great time, and I gained many useful technical and mental tips. I\u2019m thankful to know someone who can offer me such great support when I need it, and I was very impressed with Wim\u2019s resourcefulness and training intensity.<\/span><\/p>\n

On top of that I\u2019ve gained an amazing experience and new <\/em>inspiration that I\u2019ll ad to my preparation for competing at the SBD CUP in the weekend of 22th \u2013 23th September 2018. Make sure to follow me via the livestream.<\/span><\/p>\n

Untill we meet again<\/span>
