That sounds like a nice weekend!
Brutal rowing
Whats with incline bench?
Oh and I'd "accidentally" burn the books that required marking

Rowing wasn't actually too bad. Just got to crack on with it!
For some weird reason I can't flat bench - it just hurts my left shoulder. Incline is fine though, so that's why I do it.

I would bench if I could do it pain free, but every time it try it it aggravates my shoulder, so this seems like the next best thing? Plus it seems to work the pecs a bit better, which I could definitely do with some more of; I have no chest!

Ian: I don't know mate. I think it's just wear and tear, possibly from the weightlifting.
John : I know it's for a good cause, but the events dont really excite me (that means I'm not strong enough to do the events).
Andy: 120 x 5 seems a long way off, but now you've set me a target,it would be rude not to oblige!
Cheers JC. Second rep was a bit dodgy, but at least they're on the up!
