Comments 
Used the gymnastic rings for some body weight action on the upper back stuff and I think it's a great tool to use in training. 
Barbell squats felt good and they felt Alot better than they did before the procedure with a empty bar. 
The lads were benching tonight so I struggled big time not to have a shot it was only 140 do I managed to stay away but I don't think I'll manage much longer with out bench.

Davy it was so tempting to try and bench but another week or two yet.
