James came in tonight, it was his last session before the WA Strongman Qualifier on the weekend. He did military press, bench press and log presses. Good luck on the weekend James smash it out! He is competing in the U90 class.
Shane worked with Dan on his squat technique. Having come from a best of 110kg x 3 Dan coached him to a 150kg PB with room in the tank, he weighs about 89kg.
D, ever so consistant, came in and smashed out her goblet squats, bench press, UDLs and them finished off with some work on the GHR. Next week she progresses her weight on the goblet squats to 16kg KB and UDLs to 18kg. One of Ds' goals is to deadlift 115kg.
Tolga is a security guard at Burswood, during a scuffle he did his ACL so came in for some rehabilitation work and bench press.
Ricky, finally made it in after running out of petrol. The metaophor doesn't fit though, squatted 130kg 3x7 then smashed out some prowler and farmers walk.
Nat box squatted, SLDL, bench pressed, rowed THEN did some rope work, he'll be sore tomorrow.
Dan went crazy and squatted 100 times maxing out at 130kg.
I'v had a few weeks off, squatted to 140kg x 5, did some rows, GHR and chins.

Dave was in for this session and already making progress. Upped the weight and even added in a set of chins at the end with ZERO PUKE.
Joey came in tonight. He's a boxer looking for strengthening in his sport. He's never squatted before and tonight he got to 150kg for one rep with the help of Aaron.
Dan and Kurt came in tonight preparing for GPC Nats working on bench and deadlifting. Dan worked up to his opener of 110kg, Kurt up to 90kg (and added in a 95kg for fun). I also joined in and benched my opener of 125kg.
Anthony came in to do some deadlifting with Aaron. He's never gone "heavy" before and managed a 170kg for a single, then pulled off a 200kg. So he should!
Aaron going against doctors orders decided to deadlift and tripled 170kg then 200kg for a single.
Paul came in for another session. He's on a Wendler 5/3/1 and deadlifted tonight. He's been using straps for awhile so I got him to do his sets without them and he failed on 140kg. For assistance I got him using the fat bar, and then he finished off with some front squatting.
Getting a lot more interest now, only been 5 days!

PCoops was the first in the door tonight. A good bench session tonight, did a 5x5 at 70kg then a bunch of assistance. He finished up with some prowler work which he's never done before. In the end he was gasping for air running out the door. Great work Glenn!
Ricky came in for some rack pulls from just above knee height. Rick pulled up to 290kg for 8. Rick even had the ladder out tonight for some fast action speed work.
D was in tonight as consistent as ever churning out her routine. Consistency is the key!
Dan in tonight getting his deadlifts in on his way to GPC Nats. Got up to 250kg for a single. We tested Dans vertical jump and it is a staggering 72cm, that's excellent and way way above average.
Alex came in for his first session tonight. God damn its brutal.... thanks Aaron! hahaha Alex finished with the KLEENEX COMPLEX. He's never done any KB work before and managed it in 4:09.

Joey and D came in for our body conditioning class. There were a few more that said they were coming but they wimped out... we expect this to grow more and more as it gains popularity. Paul did a great job pushing them to the limits, I was in pain watching them. Some exercises included goblet squats, swings, box jumps, military presses and thrusters. The class will change every week to keep it challenging.
Matt came in for a 1-1 to work on squat and deadlift form. He was pretty good actually we just gave him a couple of small adjustments and queues and he felt a lot more confident. I finished off with showing him some clean and power clean form.
Dan came in for some speed benching, working up to 82.5kg 5x3. Then did some strict pressing working up to singles. Dan got to 82.5kg for a PB, I joined in and got to 87.5kg for a PB.
Dan followed up his strict pressing with some push pressing, and lifted 100kg for a PB and then 105kg. Great work Dan!
Amnon came in for his second 1-1 and we squatted and deadlifted. He'd never done a 20 rep squat so to introduce him to this devastation we did a 40kgx20. With his deadlift we did some speed pulls and then finished with a couple of 80-90% effort lifts. To finish him off I gave him the Kleenex Complex. Needless to say Amnon was crawling out the door. I hope he will be back, I think he will.
Ricky came in for his usual excessive workout.
Anthony signed up today and Paul took his through his initiation. He will start training at PTC this coming week.
Dave is making quick progress adding more weight to the bar.
Chris signed up today and I took him through his lifts and technique. He will also be starting training at PTC this coming week.
Paul came in again this week to smash out his Wendler program.

Well it's been a week and already things are shaping up very nicely. The gym was buzzing tonight! We had Alex, Coops, Joey, Chase, Corey, D, Anthony, Chris, Ricky, Matt (new sign up) and Paul T.
Everywhere you looked someone was working their absolute ring off... very difficult to pinpoint anyone, to be honest I think everyone was in awe at the awesomeness tonight. Everyone is progressing on their programs quite well - it's only been a week.
Thanks Ricky for bringing in some more tunes...
Welcome Matt to PTC.... Matt has been doing a beginners program we gave him a few months ago and has made really good progress. He was skinny.... he's now bulked up in that short time remarkably, I was surprised how he's thickened out and his form is solid. The man has been listening!
A great night!

The usual crew were in tonight going through their paces.
Was a good night with Josh and Yianni coming in for the first time. Both guys are very strong and we look forward to working with them. Josh signed up and squatted the club record of 250kg with ease. Unfortunately I didn't get it on video, he was a little camera shy but I plan on warming him up to it.
Chris came in again tonight for some conditioning work. He did the KLEENEX COMPLEX, a rope complex and a prowler complex.
Joey, Glenn and Dave were busy cranking out their programmed work as usual. These 3 have been very dedicated so far, I hope they stay that way.
Dan came in for his last squat session before GPC Nats and squatted to 220kg, just 5kg off his PB.
Chase was in tonight, he just can't keep away! Chase is young and keen and once we get him on a solid program and correct some technical issues he's going to do very well. Currently weighing around 80-85kg he's already benching around 115kg, squatting 110kg for 5 and deadlifting 180kg. Obviously a fair bit of focus will be on his squat.

Tonight was fairly busy. Dobrila (D) was in and did her set of goblet squats, bench press, UDLs and finished on the GHR. I spoke to D briefly and I may have sparked her interest in the deadlift comp held early next year.
Ricky was in, and brought along his mate Romel who is an MMA fighter. Romel joined PTC Perth and booked his assessment in early next week. Ricky and Romel worked together tonight. Ricky has an amazing work ethic.
Adam, who was a bar loader at our open day comp came in, joined and went through his assessment. Adam has been training bodybuilder style for about 5 years. Weighed in at 94.4kg with bests of a 201kg deadlift, 100kg x 5 squat and a 105kg x 5 bench. He wants to get stronger, bigger and leaner. He’s got lots of squatting to do.
James was in, he came second in his class in the WA Strongman Qualifier. He joined PTC and he’s doing his assessment Thursday night. Almost time to get Dan Macri in for some strongman training workshops.
Dan and Kirt came in for their GPC Nats preparation. Dan benched and Kirt pulled 190kg for a PB. He’s got 200kg in him.
Anthony and Mat came in and smashed through their beginner programs. Anthony has a serious mental barrier when it comes to putting weight on the bar, we’ll break him soon enough.
Josh was in for his assessment. Weighed in at 98kg, 1.849m tall, 25yo. He’s large and trim. 275kg squat, 180kg bench press and 272.5kg deadlift. He’s hungry for records. He wants to weigh 99kg with low body fat and wants to start competing in Powerlifting. The plan is to have him compete in the October novice comp. Best vertical was 72.5cm and broad jump of 3.04m. Watch this space.
Dan Rooch also preparing for GPC Nats squatted to 180kg wrapped.
Paul Rooch (me) was only able to fit in 20-30 minutes of training at the end of the day, up to 140kgx10 squats.
I had the coach and president from Bayswater Soccer Club down tonight to give them a tour and explain what services we can offer the club. They were very interested. We will be meeting with them in the next week to discuss a sponsorship deal.

It's either the weather or my B.O that has scared people off tonight as only the dedicated flooded in.
The big boys Josh and james where in moaning and groaning......on the floor...........being destroyed by the foam roller Haha!
Josh picked up where he left off disrespecting the iron as he pushed out yet another CLUB RECORD this time on the Bench at 160kg, and leaving a little bit of BOOM to move.
Strongman James was in for his assessment weighting in @ 86kg his numbers are 150/140/230 pushing through his Wendler 5/3/1 program for tonight until we get him on a program to bring his squat up!
Kapish was a walk in, that crawled out after finishing off his session pushing the Black Beast (Prowler) around. He will be back...when he can walk again mwahahaha
Glen has been pushing hard and is in a great rhythm with his routine and his mobility work.
Last in the door was Dave aka "wingman" who pushed through his workout with ease......and no bucket
Don't forget if you want to lose some kgs than we have our GPP class on this saturday $10 members and $20 Non members so come on down bring a friend and a bucket and burn some fat!

It's either the weather or my B.O that has scared people off tonight as only the dedicated flooded in.
The big boys Josh and james where in moaning and groaning......on the floor...........being destroyed by the foam roller Haha!
Josh picked up where he left off disrespecting the iron as he pushed out yet another CLUB RECORD this time on the Bench at 160kg, and leaving a little bit of BOOM to move.

What a night... I was flat on my feet for at least half of it. Welcome to 3 new PTC Perth members who signed up tonight. These being:
Chase who's done a couple of casuals with us already. Chase was training at the Muscle Pit but being around the corner from us it only made sense to make the switch. He's on a program provided to him from Henry Day so it's pretty rock solid, for now.
Matt who literally called this afternoon to organise to come in. After a chat and walkthrough he was impressed enough to sign up and booked in tomorrow morning for his initial assessment. Matt squats and deads 130kg and benched 75kg.
The third was Jamie who emailed us today. He came in at 6pm, I walked him through the facility and he signed up on the spot. I spent an hour with Jamie going through the main lifts and for a self taught lifter his form was actually pretty good. The usual tight hamstrings etc... from a desk job but nothing some mobility work won't iron out in the coming months. His current lifts are about 125/100/150. We will get him to the novice 140/100/180 in about 6 months or so.
The usual dedicated crew were in tonight:
Josh - a conditioing session with quadrants, farmers walks and finished off with two DEATH complexes. He was smashed at the end but completed them pretty well. Great effort.
D - always pushing herself and plugging along to her program. If there is one consistent athlete in this gym it's her!
Coops - he's really getting into the groove of the movements tonight. I was assisting him bench on a few sets and it's incredible the difference in technique. He looks like a lifter now!
Ricky - in terms of work ethic there is no better than Ricky. You have to come in and watch this guy you'll get a sweat. A++
Matt - completed a 5x10 ATG squat followed by some push pressing and a 3x3 152.5kg deadlift set. He is progressing very well.
Dan - preparing or nats next week did some 70-80% deadlift work. Monday we will be performing our opening lifts in competition style. Anyone wanting to come watch Dan and myself perform our openers are more than welcome.
I trained tonight as well benched up to my equal PB of 132.5kg, powercleaned to a 90kg PB and finished off with other assistance work.
Almost 2 weeks since we opened the doors and so far things are going fantastic, we couldn't be happier. Things are on track and we have already ordered another power rack.
