I seem to make good progress on that type of routine. It takes it's toll on the old CNS though so I'm having a few days off over Christmas.

Happy with the standing press though.

I thought it might have cleared by now but it hasn't and the pain causes my left leg to buckle at times, particularly when going up stairs or kerbs and also when pressing the clutch down in the car. I've no idea what's caused it as last weeks squats and deads gave no indication that anything was wrong. I was going to take at least a week over Christmas off from training any way as I really do need a break but I have to admit this latest injury has got me wondering if PL is the way forward for me.

Cheers Dan Just a s**t day mate to be honest, I'm not ready to hang up the boots just yet. I'm at work tomorrow then no work or training for 10 days so hopefully the rest will do me good. I'll be down at Marc's gym sometime in the New Year, we'll have to sort out a session there when you're free.
