I am not sure if I am actually doing low pulley rows, but I do them on a machine with a low pulley and a seat on the floor, like a rowing machine or an arm over arm. Its rowing on a low pulley, so I'm sure it's not far wrong...

Not long enough rest, so after a brief kicking of my own ass and an extra 2 mins rest... 2x150kg 160kg - failed again, felt like my legs were worn out from standing on the spot for 2 days running at work and deciding to play football for a team again at my age.. 2x2 150kg 5x100kg Bench 8x30kg 6x45kg 6x60kg 5x70kg 4x80kg 3x82.5kg 3x87.5kg 3x90kg Paused (for 3 seconds ish!) bench 2x5 82.5kg - was supposed to be 2 sets of 6 but I had nothing in the tank by this time 2x2 80kg Behind head pulldowns 8 10 plates 2x8 11 plates 7 10 plates Fried. Completely. Had to rush through training as I didn't get to the gym until late, so I probably didn't get enough rest inbetween sets. Had a busy week as well, with less than enough sleep and not enough food either. Never mind, everyone has bad days here and there. 2 days rest now should see me right for next week.

enjoys the odd fag Member 563, 1029 posts SQ 210, BP 125, DL 230 565.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq	Yeah I'm not worried, I've got a cold, sore throat and a cough coming on, feels like man flu. It's probably the culprit for me feeling s**tty most of the week. No matter. Still got plenty of work in.

Still mostly bodybuilding Member 501, 10465 posts SQ 220, BP 150, DL 250 620.0 kgs @ 94kgs UnEq	In that case it seems a pretty solid session - when ive got a coldi act like a proper pussy. Dont go near the gym.

enjoys the odd fag Member 563, 1029 posts SQ 210, BP 125, DL 230 565.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq	Bad luck at the moment - cold's clearing up, but went playing football monday night (after being in bed most of the day with man flu)and sprained my ankle...gutted. It's calmed down a fair bit now but still cant bear weight on my heel - so for a week or so I will have to stick to seated/bench work in the gym. I can't flex my ankle so I can't go too heavy on bench either, so I am going to do some OH pressing and plenty of core strength work until my ankle is fit for use. Then I am going to do some one legged stuff to strengthen my ankles up, as they have always been a problem as far as breaks and spprains are concerned.

Was meant to deadlift today but I just can't flex my ankle far enough to put force on it for a deadlift. Cleans were crappy due to this and my technique suffered, so I left them as well...I'm imatient and want to get back into full swing but I need to wait a few more days yet

enjoys the odd fag Member 563, 1029 posts SQ 210, BP 125, DL 230 565.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq	Played 2 footy matches last night, as the match after ours only 1 team turned up and so we stayed for extra fitness and also so the other lads could still have a game- legs feeling heavy today, but squats anyway! Tue 7th July Squats 10x40kg 10x60kg 5x100kg 5x112.5kg 5x120kg - had to have a wee rest after 3rd rep, felt heavy today... Front squats 5x60kg 5x80kg 3x90kg 1x100kg - ugly. Ankle still a bit stiff and inflexible yet to go heavy on these, came up unevenly and forwards a bit, so left these there. One leg calf raises supersetted standing with seated 2x10 w/10 plates on each machine Dumbell side bends 10x45lb dumbell 4x5 w/130lb dumbell Ab crunch m/c 3x10 w/full stack Then did some quad extensions and hamstring curls to pass the time until my bus came, 3x5 w/8 plates on quad ext. 3x5 w/10 plates on hammy curls Hypers using glutes and hams to get up 3x10 w/20kg plate held to top of my head Nice session, ankle is about 95% and getting better daily, I'm just hoping I gain some fitness from this football malarky, otherwise I'm gonna hamper my progress by playing the day before training! I'm aiming to enter the All England Powerlifting Champs in August, unequipped 90kg class. It depends on finances, (I'm a poor student!) but hopefully I can get enough cash together to join GBPF and pay entry fee. I have altered my training to hopefully peak at comp time, I'm trying the 5-3-1 system for 5 weeks, then I will switch to all 3 lifts thrice weekly in readiness. Week before I will only go up to my openers, and have a few extra days off before the comp. It will be my first com, so I reckon this will be ok this time, I am more bothered about getting 9 out of 9 than smashing pbs, although I hope to get a pb or two, obviously! Will just keep training and see how it goes.
