tanks buddies - appreciate it. Still feels like s**tbag weight to be honest, but need to keep the eye on the long term!

SUGDEN

Anthony The Machine nailing Smolov, Bodybuilding Baz some new movement of the day with his dentist buddy, rest of the crew doing their thing and for me, it was the moment of truth with strict pressing.

Wee warm up

Press
12x20
12x20
5x40
3x55
5x70 - not good
5x70 - wee bit better
5x70 - nice!
5x70 - wee bit worse
5x70 - not good
10x55

goal was to get to 70 with 5x5, started with just the bar so i guess i should be happy.

Now two options for next week onwards: either nail lower reps and up the weight, or move to jerks as the main pressing movement and leave the press as an assistance. One needs to ponder...

Biceps with Baz - solid!

Machine rows - back to 12xstack finally.

Thinking of starting to go to Olympic Sport gym on one of the days - maybe mondays - since Adlington is a bit difficult for me to reach with my new job situation. Might just wait till i can actually do lifts like cleans first.

That's great strict pressing, and you haven't even missed a rep yet. Why not drop down to 3x5 or 5x3 and milk the increases for another few weeks? Keep in mind you jumped to 67.5 for 5x5 and skipped 65 so you're a week ahead of schedule anyway!

Tommy, sensible suggestion man, next barbell pressing day on wednesday, might just go for a progressive triples then. Should really get to 80 before this rehab log is over.

So The Machine is doing Smolov? Why am I not surprised?! Just the thing to do with a f**ked hip!

What's his squat at these days?

his squatting looks ok actually, hip is not being painful at the moment. Just a bit of lack of flexibility.

he took 190 as the number for the smolov.

What time would you be up for training Mondays at Olympic gym? I'm thinking of doing all my pressing on Mondays from now on and would be good to train it there with someone?

well done on the 5x5 with 70kg too.
