Spent the past couple of weeks transitioning back into doing actual work sets instead of dicking around with random heavy singles and the odd triple.

Deads felt much harder than their speed would've suggested. Hardly eating enough food, f**king hot in the gym too. Felt like puking midway through this session. SLDL were fast and easy, can increase those easily next time.

Everything felt nice and strong except the OHP and DB benching. Maybe the dips took too much out of me, but I couldn't press for s**t today. Squats were nice and comfy which is acceptable.

Not much time today, just did squats and left.

Squat
warmup
130x2
140x5
150x1
160x1
167.5x1
140x5


The 140x5 felt like a warmup, very easy. The 167.5 is the 2013 PB, and definitely had more there. Will try 170 this week or the next.

Things are going well, but weight has stayed around 82kg or so; seeing a little body recomposition, but I know will need to lose some more fat. Going to start skipping lunch; easy to do in final year of med school because you can quiet easily work right through to nearly dinner. Also easy to skive off if I want I suppose.

I think I will start doing some front squats. I have horrific wrist flexibility and will not be able to do a clean grip initially, but I will work on it.

So the 170kg squat was very tough and maybe about an inch high; I've got video so maybe I'll upload it later.

Was just messing around with OHP as a friend was doing it. I just walked up and banged out a very easy 50x5 with no warmup, no wraps/belt, and all done from the bottom position (no bounce). Was really surprised how easy it was. So I then did 60kg but I dipped my knees a little. When I did it again, I made sure my knees were locked and it was super strict. However, I really tweaked something in my neck because as soon as I put the bar down I've had really bad pain and drastically reduced neck movement. It's all f**ked up. Seriously hope this goes away over the weekend. f**k.

Felt really s**tty going in today.


Squats
warmup
145x3
145x5

Dips
BWx12
+15x10x2 (PB?)
+15x8

Incline DB
15x10
20x10x3

Pushdowns

Only needed 3 reps on 145 squat, but it wasn't too hard, just pussed out because I'm tired. So did another set. Not sure if I'll move up in weight or repeat later. This is one of the few sessions I didn't do some sort of heavy single. Trained semi-fasted and really exhausted.

Missed session yesterday, might make it up today or just skip it.

Had a massive Chinese meal the other day; wasn't planning on doing binge cheat days, but it happened.
