 still a devious weightlifting bastard Member 43, 14379 posts | Back squat 40 3,3,3,3 80 3 110 3 140 3,3,3 Press 40 3 50 3 60 3 70 3 75 3,3,3 4k plod 5k weighted. The run and, more importantly, the breathing was ok. The 2.5k dumbells as opposed to 1.5k wrist weights was a big increase, and not in a good way. This needs a rethink. May be time to start using the backpack. | ||

still a devious weightlifting bastard Member 43, 14379 posts | Still no cycling. Probably the longest I've been off 2 wheels in 6 years. 11 days to the shortest day. 12 days and it'll be getting brighter. 4k plod. No weight. No speed. No stopping. No drama. | ||

still a devious weightlifting bastard Member 43, 14379 posts | Nothing last night. Promising start today. Let the dogs out about half 6, and all was dry. Went back to bed for a couple of hours and got up to do the parkrun. Opened the front door and closed it again. Belting down. Got back in bed. After a day of telly and youtube I managed to do a bit Press 40 5,5 60 5 75 5 85 2 70 7 Bag 10 1min rounds. Shoulderz gainz I think as I'm on a performance decline from an age perspective I'm starting with 0k PB's across the board from next year. It's the only way any of this lifting stuff will keep me interested. | ||

Lost his pen, then found his pen. #phew Member 4899, 2956 posts | Long ago I decided that yearly bests were the way forward... | ||

still a devious weightlifting bastard Member 43, 14379 posts | I tend to agree Chris. It's not about going forward any more. It's about digging in and not going backwards, at least not willingly. | ||

Lost his pen, then found his pen. #phew Member 4899, 2956 posts | Pretty much - I like to think I have a few years left but, from injury if nothing else, I think I won't see some of my past lifts again. The good thing with yearly bests is they can fall where they may and, if they get up close to old levels, all the better. | ||
