Seem to have been bitten by the bug again recently, so I have decided to keep a log.
There wont be any big numbers, or witty anecdotes, but I have a f**king awesome beard and some short arms that apparently help with pressing stuff. Apparently.

First session back in the gym after a comp last week, so some bench and overhead to get the arms moving again.

Flat Bench
100 x 10
120 x 10
120 x 5
120 x 5
120 x 5

120 x 5

Viking press Strict
80 x 10 strict
Viking Push press
100 x 5
100 x 5

100 x 5

Barbell push press
60 x 10
80 x 5

Then some tricep work til I was ruined.

Aiming to do the Yorkshire Strongest Masters at the end of November, looking forward to a comp where im not at least 10 years older than everyone!

Well that all went tits up. Havent trained since the post in this journal, have spent half the time in hospital and the rest seemingly led up suffering.
Health fell off a cliff face, and right now Im not even able to lower myself into a squat position unaided.
CT scans, MRI scans, lumbar punctures etc all leading towards a diagnosis thats looking more and more like Parkinsons.
On the plus side, shaking non stop and muscle spasms for hours on end means im finally getting the elusive abs!!!

Better start a new journal based on me trying to get back into a gym, yet alone trying for numbers!!!

s**t. Parkinsons? Sorry to hear it mate. Isn't it usually older people who get it? Is it a hereditary disease? Any cure, or way of lessening its symptoms?
Wish you well anyway!

Cheers.
It is usually old people, but I guess Im special lol! Its not hereditary, but the neurologist is interested in the fact that my mum has MS. There isnt a cure unfortunately, but I would be happy to get something to lessen the symptoms - its a nightmare shaking like an idiot for hours on end, its getting to be a pain in the arse!

On the plus side, it gets me out of having to do stones again!!!
