Squats

Front Squats

5 x 5 x 60 kg

SLDL's, calf raises, rope crunches

Felt strong tonight after resting over Christmas, the 5 x 140 felt very comfortable and I could have done 9 or 10.
My routine should have been 5 x 5 at 150 tonight but my left knee is still giving me problems so I didn't push it.
My front squat technique needs some work before I up the weight.

Fronties are a new one on me but they'll get better, I've got serious doms in my quads though to say how light they were.

Disappointing tonight, I had to get a touch from my spotter on the last rep of the last 3 sets of the bench. I thought the bench would be there tonight after my rest but I just couldn't get any leg drive.

Deads

5 x 140 kg

That's 5 singles equal to my current PB, very tough though especially the last 2 and I used my back far too much.
I've cut all of the crap out of my diet since Monday in an effort to lose some weight so a lot less calories than usual this week.

Cheers for the compliments chaps.
Progress on deads is going well again now that the hamstrings have healed.

My first crack at 5 x 3 x 160, I didn't expect to get them all but I expected more than 1 set, went down for the second rep on the second set and didn't come back up.
Front squat technique was much improved, I'll put some weight on the bar next week.
