Daves Training Journal

Hi,

Just joined the site,

Gonna start a training log,

Ive clicked to attend yorkshires strongest man with very little prep, I think just to chock myself into it.

Bit of a background if anyone fancies a read.
I was a javelin thrower from a young age, competed nationally in that, did alot olympic lifting for that, then went into bodybuilding, didnt compete, was more for vanity if im being honest. took time out of training as ai had a little boy, started smoking like an absolute idiot, god nows why. Now ive stopped and looking to take it serious again. So ill see how it goes

Ive a passion for intense training really, both cardio and lifting, I like to do alot of powerful stuff, like short sprints etc

So Ide start a journal leading up to my first small competition and see how it goes, Enjoy.

Im open to all advice so please dont hesitate to rip my training routine apart once i start if needed

I did Pull on monday but didnt have the figures, so i will start with push

Incline DB Press - 60x12, 70x10, 80x8, 80x8
Bench press - 100x8, 120x8, 125x8
