Gym opened at 6 (well, me and another guy opened it!) - decided to try no caffeine as well as an empty stomach to see if it made any difference, it didn’t.

Bench (slow negative)
95 x 6,6,5,4

Flyes 15 x 12,12,12
Dumbell press 20 x 8, 17.5 x 12,13
Lying EZ triceps 25 x 12,12,12

Less shaking from my left pec, which was nice.
Left shoulder still feeling awful.

I got a bit ambitious with weight increases today.

Squat 130 x 4,4, 120 x 5,5 (slow negative)
Ab wheel x 6,6,6
Stiff leg Deads 130 x 4,4,4,4
Hack machine 80 x 8,8,8

Tried no caffeine this morning (for a 5am start) and it was a mistake - a little coffee as a pre workout is advisable.

Bench 80 x 3 (8 sets with short red bands)
Bent rows 100 x 11 (3 sets)
Pulldowns 3 sets
Bent laterals and EZ curls for 2 sets - both seemed a bit pointless to be honest

Last lot of slow negative sets went ok

Squats 130 x 5,5,5,4
Stiff leg Deads 140 x 5,4,4
Hacks 120 x 6, 100 x 3 (stopped as knee hurt)

Maybe front squats would be a better idea going forward. I can feel a strength increase from doing these, some speedy bandy bits at the end of the week then onto the next 3 week block.

Squats - just warm ups to 100 x 3
Deads with short blue bands 120 x 3 (8 sets)
Banded TKEs 5 sets of 20

Mixed bag - knee hurts but trying not to be an idiot and “work through” - which isn’t a thing when you’re mid 40s!
I’m going to move onto pauses next week

Late night so I trained during the day.

Squats to 140 x 3, 2 then 120 x 3 (6 sets) - the plan was that these all were “fast”
Front squats 80 x 8, 8, 8 supersettted with back squats 80 x 8.
Leg curls 3 sets x 10

The front/back supersets were devastating
