19:30 The Bunker

Very tired. Last 12 hour shift. Last of 8 x 10 mile bike rides, and as well I've been doing a bit on the weights. Sitting down all day doesn't lend itself to feelings of athletisism. I'm tired.
Squat
50x5,5,5
100x3 Too tired for reps
140x1
160x1
180x1 Tired, but not unhappy at this stage

DL
50x5
100x3 Too tired for reps
140x1
160x1
180x1
200x1 Nothing blinding, but a nice little milestone at this stage.

Press
50x3 Too tired for reps
70x1
90x1
95x1

I'm tired and I'm done.

Hiking and camping from tomorrow so over to Coupey to keep the faith till next week.

I was talking about the last couple of sessions mate, every time you step in the gym something is improving!

Fair play Dave. Thanks fella. It's all muscle memory really. This OL stuff will be pretty short lived, but I've picked out a few lifts and if I can get to 75% of my best ever lifts I'll be made up. 80%'s and I'll buy Coupey a chicken kebab for roping me in.

Back from camping. I'm f**ked. 20 mile hike with a walking weight of 113Kgs (I weigh 90 striped) with a dog who walks backwards every time a car drives past took it's toll. Walked about 10 of it along the Bridgewater canal tow path which in the weather we had was beautiful. Did another 8 miles yesterday through Delamere forest and surrounding areas, avoiding blisters. The plan was to walk back, but decided to get my Mrs to come and rescue us. I also got sunburnt quite badly which is going to hamper any training done in the short term. Fun time had by all. No more camping for a while.Unhappy

Lol. No mate. Got a workout with Mr Coupe and Mills next month that I'm doing a bit of training for so as not to make too much of an arse of myself. Then I'm on a severe cut for a week, then I'm in Turkey for a week, then I'm back doing cardio.

I'm leaving the young mens stuff to the young men Wink

Another drawback is I don't have my own transport. I got fed up of spiralling costs a few years back and became a pedestrian, and have been happily walking and cycling ever since. As I dont want to smash my house up I have to be absolutely certain of getting every lift and under good control. I'm not convinced that this is the best mindset when you get hold of a bar.

Things change, so who knows what the future holds, but unless I get serious about crossfit I can't see it.

Limited to what I can do till the sunburn subsides somewhat.

Bench press
60x10
100x5
120x3
140x2
125x5
110x10
90x15 Bit disappointed with this set. The goal is bwtx25.

EZ Curl
4 10's

Pec Dec
4 10's

I reckon this is enough to allow me a carb back load night. I hope so. I'm going for it. Got myself a tasty Chinese lined up. Not as tasty as Ming-Na Wen, but in any case a big dish of beef chow mein. From the Oakwood chippy mind, not Lee Ho Fooks, because I haven't been walking in Soho in the rain.

Hopefully do something a bit less 'holiday' tomorrow if my skin allows movement. As it stands it hurts just to wear socks. I may have to try a good few exercises before I can find one I can do. Drained all my feet blisters now so they're on the mend.

Yeah, I make it look easy, but believe it or not there's quite a bit of effort goes in there.

Have you been watching the new 24 btw?
