What about the metrosexual hairstyle? Is it staying or are you going to have a skinhead again?

Joni The Metro.

Extremely important questions, gentlemen.

The hair should stay, like you Milsy, i have noticed some disappearance of the hair thickness. Experts give me 2-4 years so may as well have a metro hairstyle while its possible. At least till summer.

Facial hair should be kept under control too to accommodate my new softer look.

Olly - yeah might do man! But only if you bulk up to above 105...

DUNGEON

Fun session today - eventhough still not able to do all that much. At least keeping things ticking over and getting some work in. Guys were very helpful and there were some beastly lifting going on with JC and milsy on log, boards and deads, adam on squats and shawn in anything he laid his hands on.

Hip belt squats
these didnt go anywhere, bas***d to get in place
6x60
5x70
5x80
2x90 and a fail Grin

yoke pickup & holds
1x160
5x1x200 with about 10 secs hold

done just to get some load on the spine again, and for core strength

pinch grip with a block
1x20
1x25
1x27.5
1x30 dropped on top - very hard this

rolling thunder
1x60
2x65
1x67.5
fx67.5

Sled drag (attached to a belt)
1x90
3 or 4 runs with 130

Awesome. This was the best thing, really got me panting.

Now to holiday for 5 days, will nail some cardio there at least.

Good to see the Bull back in action at the dungeon!

I like the yoke pick up idea, you could actually go pretty heavy on those I think, treat it as a sort of million dollar squat. Also I want to see you drag that sled all the way up the estate next time Grin Operation 'Make the Bull Sweat'

Mate, admire the work you were putting in at the weekend. Would be so easy just to rest up and wait until you could do some "fun stuff", but you were really putting it in, with the sled runs espeacially good Happy

Think the sled runs and yoke pick ups are definitely keepers at the mo'. Be good to see you back pressing not too long from now

good stuff guys! Loved the sled drag - hated the hip belt squats Grin Hope to get to the dungeon next week to up the game on the drags at least, and see if i can put a bit of weight on the yoke. I think i had it a bit too high last time and the neck was a bit sore Grin

ok, back from a wee holiday. Fair bit of running and hiking, but mostly relaxing.

Today:

SUGDEN CENTRE

exercise bike nailed for 5 mins

DB oh jerk
12x12.5
10x17.5
8x22.5
8x30
8x35

one arm deads
5x60
2x100
fx130
1x125

might need a plan with this, but then again, might not bother and just try some singles every now and again Grin

db snatches, right only obviously
15x22.5
10x27.5
10x27.5

messed about with some db oh squat - might give it a stab tmr.

I reckon you should perservere with those one arm dead's mate - you're getting up to some good looking numbers but more importantly, it just looks really cool to deadlift with one hand - and the uninitiated could be convinced that you would obviously be able to do double with 2!

So, in view of the above I recommend a target of 227.5Kg one arm DL Wink

Too bad I am not bulking!

Not planning to eat them all myself, maybe shift at least half of them to others Grin

SUGDEN CENTRE

Mainly just keeping Adam company with his crazy ass 10 x 3 x 187.5 squat session, but got some training in as well.

Db OH squats (one arm only of course)
10x15
8x20
6x25
6x25
6x25

db swings
10x25
10x30
10x32.5
10x32.5

couple sets of hammer strength rows with right

hammer leg press
10x100
10x150
6x6x200

back extension machine
20x3/4 stack
2x20xfull stack/152.5

everything pretty easy today, deliberately, because the pec was a bit swollen - need to keep an eye on it, dont know if it is normal or if i have been overdoing things a bit.

go easy metro !!

wonder why the pec swells - isnt the ligament attached at the shoulder/arm end ?

who the hell knows what goes on in there

do you think long term it is better to have happened now n been fixed or was the injury totally avoidable ?

hows the hair ?

Not a bad session mate, I liked those OH DB squats, you should work up to doing the 50's. Cool
