Bench Warm up Mixed between pinky on the rings and first finger Few sets on 90 for 5s Few sets on 100, 105 for 4s - didn't feel strong. Gonna work on my wide grip, reckon its got good potential. Incline bench 8x60kg 5x80kg 1x90kg 1x100kg 1x105kg - mate thought I was gonna fail but I had it, failed the second clean attempt. Log - each first rep cleaned then push press. 2x5x48kg 2x4x67.5kg 2x72.5kg 1x77.5kg 1x80kg 1x85kg, failed first attempt. Loved the log, my first go on one. Didnt realise they had one there and left my belt at home. Had a play around with some s**tty Velcro belt. No good! Squats Warm up All beltless 2x2x100kg 4x2x120kg Pull ups 5, 5, 4 Really fun workout, loved it at Monster. Felt really lightheaded at the end of the workout, was training for over 2 hours. | ||

Whereabouts do you live?Bench has felt really heavy recently. Need to work at some easier weights. Also working a wide grip at the moment as I feel I can rep well with it, just need to get used to the heavier weights, so I can feel more stable with it. Definitely feel I've got some decent potential with it | ||

Apparently there's a club that does a crew night with all the flight staff. Meant to be a decent night. Have you been? Oh you mean Fountain, with the 'crew lounge' or whatever they call it. Ive been a few times and it is so incredibly small and hot in there. Drinks are mega expensive (well compared to uni prices). And I did not spot any flight staff or uniforms or whatever. however, embarrassingly it is probably one of stortfords best/biggest nights out, apart from a friday in Bacchus. The Star pub on a saturday or friday is always heaving though if you want a slower paced evening. At the end of the day a night out with mates can be a laugh wherever you end up though. | ||

Lat pull down 3x10 - 40, 60, 70, 8x80kg Should've done some rows and speed deads as I've missed them but I'll have to leave them for this week and let my back recover. | ||

You study at Nottingham don't you? Think I may pop up there for freshers with a few mates. Yeah it's a small town but there are some good nights. Post-night out at shekos2 is compulsory though! Yeah I'm at nottingham uni, all freshers events last year were wristband only, and they were given out in halls. So if you can get hold of some then you'll be good! Nottingham is a great night out | ||
