 Member 3241, 2043 posts SQ 1, BP 192, DL 255448.0 kgs @ 136kgs UnEq | It seems to be getting a pain in the arse of a pattern now but all most EVERY f**kING FRIDAY I have a s**tty session as I just cant be arsed and feel like I'm just going through the motions etc... Mondays & Wednesdays are brilliant and I always come away feeling fantastic but it gets to Friday and as soon as I get to the gym; it just seems to drain away from me! Going to start doing Sat afternoons again as I used to have great sessions over the weekend as well so will see how they go! Wonder if it'd be worth training Monday, Tuesday & Thursday instead and then Sat afternoons instead of Mon, Wed & Fridays etc... | ||

 Sugdens very own David Dimbleby Member 1403, 3716 posts SQ 220, BP 115, DL 260595.0 kgs @ 97kgs UnEq | Funny you should mention this. The last two fridays have been excellent, PB ridden sessions however today was utter wank. It was a choice of training or beer. Now the training is done I firmly plan to enjoy my beer this weekend. | ||

My benching is gay, deads gayer and squats bisexual (somewhere between gay and not) If you're working Mon-Fri with a set routine, then this may be affecting your training too. If you're working shifts or odd days/hours, then it may be the exercise. | ||

no really Irish Member 1196, 5908 posts SQ 312, BP 230, DL 320862.0 kgs @ 114kgs UnEq | You accumulate fatigue throughout the week. If your working mon-fri and training pretty hard mon-fri with the weekend off Then naturally your going to suck on Friday. Currently the bulk of my heavy training is done Thurs/Fri and I have the weekend off I work odd hours and sleep well so that's not really an issue. However every Monday I feel like a frail old biddy and can barely double nearly 80kg less than my PB for 2 in squat. It's just how your body works you need to recover from all the work your doing. Trick is to be smart with your sessions placement through the week and not to have anymore than 2 truly heavy sessions for upper or lower body (unless your on that which shall not be named). | ||

Member 3241, 2043 posts SQ 1, BP 192, DL 255448.0 kgs @ 136kgs UnEq | I work from home running my own business but I can work silly hours catching up with paperwork/emails etc... Usually do a push/pull routine bar legs which I either do on their own or with a bit of bicep stuff afterwards (tonight). I think I'm just being lazy as Fridays for me can be a slow day with work so I tend to faff about a bit as well...  | ||
