Nice Session yesterday...another different gym, trained at the posh one my missus runs her sports massage studio from...machines all felt very different so weights etc all different from the norm, great session though...

Push 1

Hack Squats

40kg x 20
80kg x 10
80kg x 10
80kg x 10
100kg x 7

Brutal machine...much more upright than my usual one and instead of 200kg I used 80kg lol. The pain in my quads is crazy this morning, very painful. DOMS is back now I have been cruising again. These did feel awesome though!

Leg Extensions

Pin 10 x 10 feet straight
Pin 10 x 10 feet out
Pin 10 x 10 feet in
Pin 10 x 12 feet straight
Pin 10 x 12 feet out
Pin 10 x 12 feet in

No idea of the weight but I knew I had done these, the pump was just insane (thank you pre workout bagels!) and I had veins coming out over entire quad area. Low rest periods too. Had to stretch out after these as legs were insanely tight and hams already sore from day before.

Incline Smith Bench Press

40kg x 12
80kg x 10
100kg x 5 + 2 + 1 rest/pause
80kg x 10
80kg x 8 x 2 rest/pause

Another machine which is much tougher...unloaded the bar felt like it was the usual 20kg (didn't include in weights listed) but none the less a great movement and chest worked really well, felt good, great pump again.

Standing Cable Flyes

35kg x 17 rep pb
35kg x 12
30kg x 12

Same machine as at home so I know weights the same, only difficulty was the floor was too slippery to stay in place, made it tougher but I love this movement, such a great stretch and contraction.

Pec Dec

Pin 12 x 15
Pin 15 x 15
Pin 17 x 8
Pin 17 x 8

Again no idea on weight but love this pec dec, so smooth and adjusts well, pecs burned and cramped really nicely from these, starting to slowly see improvements in chest.

Klokov Smith Behind Head Press

40kg x 15
60kg x 4
40kg x 12
40kg x 8
40kg x 8

Another new and massively favourite lift for me...the wide grip feels so good on shoulders and delts instantly pump up from them. Again weights all different from usual as different smith but I managed to trash my delts nicely from these.

Leaning One Arm Cable Laterals

15kg x 12
15kg x 12
12.5kg x 12
10kg x 12

Not done these before but will without doubt again...constant tension on delts and a great ROM, felt really good, finished shoulders off good and proper.

Viper Press

BW x 15
BW x 15
BW x 15

Kept bar a smidge higher so I could bang the reps out and triceps responded well...sore today.

Seated Calf Raise

65kg x 13 feet out pb
65kg x 12 feet in
65kg x 12 feet straight
80kg x 6 feet out pb
80kg x 6 feet in
80kg x 6 feet straight volume pb

Calf work still going well and starting to see some growth I think there, looking better than they did...will be hammering calf work in the off season as I need to bring them up a lot.

SSCV

15 mins outdoor walking AM
30 mins Incline Treadmill post workout

Done, not training today or tomorrow but will get Pull 2 in Saturday, miss one session this week then hit Sunday through Wednesday to get all sessions in next week.

Feeling good still, energy still high, strength still there, injury not hindering anything and bodyfat still dropping off...another good scale loss this week by looks of things, conditioning on waking really looking different daily. Low cal day today , normal tomorrow, Saturday and sunday...high on Monday for a meal out we have planned..will still be within reason.

I think I have another 4-6 weeks tops of cut left, I also have a photo shoot planned next week as a pro photographer has contacted me down here wanting to do some gym shots...will be ideal for my new business Happy

Loads of graft mate but I wouldn't expect anything less. It could just be the lighting but it looks super hot in that last video.

Do you have an end date in mind for your cut?

No hotter than usual tbh mate, funky lighting makes a difference lol...back in to a powerlifting gym today!

Not really mate...another 4-6 weeks maybe but I will keep going until either I am around 8% BF or my gym performance is going down the pan. I think another 4 weeks will see me around 8% ish though Happy

No idea of the weight...no numbers to note...just went progressively heavier...an awesome machine for these and the pump in traps was huge, getting DOMS now a few hours after.

Reverse Stiff Leg Hack Squats

50kg x 20
100kg x 15
150kg x 12
150kg x 12
200kg x 6

This machine is awesome for these, can get a really nice stretch on hams and glutes, really pumped up massively, wish I could do these in home gym, would be a staple.

Seated Leg Curls

90kg x 6
90kg x 6
65kg x 12

Pin 7 x 15 + hold and negative

Close Grip Machine Preacher Curls - Tempo Reps

30kg x 15
30kg x 12
30kg x 10
30kg x 10
30kg x 10

I love this old school machine...the set up is so sweet and I used tempo reps to keep weight lower and the weight piled on to the muscle...pump was crazy.

Machine Lateral Raises

5kg a side x 10
5kg a side x 10
5kg a side x 10

Not due to do delts today but wanted to try this machine out...feels weird but damn the side delt pump was crazy from tiny weights.

Prowler Push/Pull

40kg + Prowler x 25 mtrs Push/ 25 mtrs pull x 5 ...45 second rests

These were brutal...was blowing out my arse and legs went to jelly....felt awesome lol.

SSCV

30 mins Incline Treadmill to finish the session off.

Day off tomorrow, Push 2 Saturday then start Pull 1 Sunday again.

Vid uploading silly slow...its on my FB if we are friends.

Decent enough...probably a 3rd there on bench but feeling very out of practice and at this stage in my cut didn't want to risk it, a bodyweight pb that..never moved that much weight at this bodyweight before.

80kg x 5 rep pb
60kg x 12 + 5 + 4 rest/pause

Had a body stat done one me today...came out at 17.9% bodyfat, how accurate these things are I don't know but I think I look leaner than that, maintenance calories come in around 3600kcals...interesting to know at least. Still much cutting to do it would seem lol.

Behind Head Tricep Rope Extensions

40kg x 15
50kg x 12
50kg x 8
50kg x 8

Another 4lb drop this week... Leanest I've ever been now... And heaviest I've been this lean by a good 10kg so all good... 15 weeks of cut over... Another 4 - 6 to go I think.

Post refeed sees me 5lbs up and I looked crazy last night... Veins all over chest, arms, delts, lats, quads, calves and even running down rib cage and over abs... Never looked like that before... Was awesome! Slept like a log last night too... A good 10 hours and I never get that. A nice gentle family walk this morning and a low carb day today before battle commences in gym again tomorrow.... Cardio will now be being done in the evening as I will be having my daughter with me daily and 1 1/2-2 hours in gym for weights is enough for her... Will go back on my own in evening for cardio.

Entering week 16 of cut feeling good and very focused still, despite having to go back to work tomorrow

Great session today despite realising I had messed up yesterdays low calorie day...was meant to be 1900kcals...was just under 1600kcal...ffs Unhappy Never mind, calories back up to my usual 2400kcal today and session wasn't hurt by it.

Week 16 of Cut . Morning Bodyweight 94.7kg

Pull Session 1

Deadlifts

60kg x 10
100kk x 10
140kg x 5
180kg x 5
220kg x 3
260kg x 2
300kg x 1
add belt
280kg x 3
78% Explosive work..
250kg x 10 singles - 60 sec rests

Power lacking a little, injury still in back of my mind but zero twinges from it so think i'm golden now so will crack on. Phone didn't record the 300 for some reason but worked for the 280 triple. Nothing amazing but i'm just pleased to be deadlifting pain free...2 weeks ago I couldn't pull 70kg. The 250's moved nicely, focusing on moving the weight as fast as I could.

Behind Neck Pulldowns

65kg x 15
100kg x 10 rep pb
95kg x 8
90kg x 10 volume pb

4 reps up on the 100kg and total volume up, strength flying on my back work and looking at pic I took in a reverse double bicep my lats are a huge strong point, looking very wide.

Reverse Rope Pulldowns

55kg x 18 rep pb
60kg x 12 rep pb
60kg x 10 volume pb

Again strength up and all reps very controlled and a good squeeze each rep, pump was crazy.

Behind Back Cable Rope Shrugs ( 4 second contraction at top)

85kg x 20
95kg x 15
95kg x 15

Awesome pump in traps despite light weight...that contraction hold is a killer.

Lying Hamstring Curls - Triples - 30 second rests

70kg x 9 triples
70kg x 6 + 10 partials

Felt epic, pump and burn in hamstrings is crazy good, set 10 I repped out then did partials to complete muscular failure...I then crawled off. These triples are working very well.

Close Grip EZ Preacher Curls - Triples - 60 second rests

50kg x 9 triples
50kg x 5 volume pb

These felt superb, lower section of biceps felt very worked and the heavier weight with low rest periods blew biceps up well...made biceps instantly sore, very effective technique.

Lying EZ Wide Grip Cable Curls

27.5kg x 15 rep pb
25kg x 20 rep pb
25kg x 15 volume pb

A new favourite movement, the high reps after the heavy preachers felt awesome and I got a cracking pump, the constant tension works very well.

Bent Over Cable Side Laterals

10kg x 15
10kg x 15
10kg x 15
10kg x 15

Zero rest...one arm to the other and back again...massively painful pump in rear delts.

Machine Crunch

45kg x 30 rep pb
50kg x 22 rep pb
55kg x 12 rep and volume pb

Crazy pump and made abs very sore, reps ramping up session on session.

A little more ab work and 60 minutes of SSCV will be done this evening when I am child free. For the foreseeable sscv will be done in the evening to cater for childcare and work issues.

Oxman said:Great session today despite realising I had messed up yesterdays low calorie day...was meant to be 1900kcals...was just under 1600kcal...ffs Unhappy Never mind, calories back up to my usual 2400kcal today and session wasn't hurt by it.

Week 16 of Cut . Morning Bodyweight 94.7kg

Pull Session 1

Deadlifts

60kg x 10
100kk x 10
140kg x 5
180kg x 5
220kg x 3
260kg x 2
300kg x 1
add belt
280kg x 3
78% Explosive work..
250kg x 10 singles - 60 sec rests

Power lacking a little, injury still in back of my mind but zero twinges from it so think i'm golden now so will crack on. Phone didn't record the 300 for some reason but worked for the 280 triple. Nothing amazing but i'm just pleased to be deadlifting pain free...2 weeks ago I couldn't pull 70kg. The 250's moved nicely, focusing on moving the weight as fast as I could.

Behind Neck Pulldowns

65kg x 15
100kg x 10 rep pb
95kg x 8
90kg x 10 volume pb

4 reps up on the 100kg and total volume up, strength flying on my back work and looking at pic I took in a reverse double bicep my lats are a huge strong point, looking very wide.

Reverse Rope Pulldowns

55kg x 18 rep pb
60kg x 12 rep pb
60kg x 10 volume pb

Again strength up and all reps very controlled and a good squeeze each rep, pump was crazy.

Behind Back Cable Rope Shrugs ( 4 second contraction at top)

85kg x 20
95kg x 15
95kg x 15

Awesome pump in traps despite light weight...that contraction hold is a killer.
