I always write it in a text editor (you could use, eg, Notepad) and then leave it open to copy it into both places when it suits me.

I am not nearly this sophisticated.

7/12/06

Hip not feeling too good - did plenty of stretching before and after and was fine during workout.

Squat
60x5, 80x5, 100x4, 120x3, 140x2x6

Bench Press (some paused reps here and there but mostly pretty touch and go)
60x6, 80x6, 95x6, 110x6x6

First couple of sets were easy, then it got hard, and then the last set was easy again. Don't really know why but I got them done.

Pulldown (neutral)
90x5, 105x4, 120x3x5

Hammer curls dropped because of mysterious tendon pain seemingly caused by benching, which WILL have gone in a couple of days.

8/12/06

OH Press
40x5, 50x4, 60x3, 70x1, 75x1, 65x3x3, 55x5, 50x5x2

Barbell Row
60x5, 80x4, 100x3, 120x3x8

Rope Pressdown
55x12x4

Pull-through
25x15, 35x15, 45x15, 50x15

Thought I'd do some of these as glute/hip (p)rehab work. 50 is the whole stack on the cable crossover.

Hammer Curl
20sx18x3

10/12/06

Squat
70x5, 90x5, 110x5, 130x5, 150x5x5

Excellent work. It was very hard but I was always going to get them. Feeling good about the peaking phase of this routine now.

Bench Press
60x5, 80x4, 95x3, 110x2x6

DB Bench Press
42.5sx10x3

Pull-up
+5x10x5

Very good day. Squats were great, and the DBs were an all-out effort to get 3 sets of 10 with a weight I haven't done 10s with before. I was knackered by the time I got to pull-ups but got a reasonable amount of volume in before deciding I ought to call it a day.

Anyone read this nonsense from James on the Muscletalk Progress Journals forum?

I have been reading some journals and thy're just like chat rooms! Too much banter - please try to keep it generally about relevant discussions.

The onus is on the Journal holder to keep the crap out - if it continues Journals will have to be locked, which is a shame.

We have standards on MT and many members/non members read the journals and enjoy them - please don't let MT become a trashy site.


Many members/non members read the journals because they like them way they are! I think this is just ridiculous so I'm not keeping my journal on MT anymore.

Nice squatting mate! Make sure you nail a big one at the end of this, I think the potential is obviously there. You just have to convert your past work into that 1RM.

That was 10/12/06: 150x5x5

so that leaves:

17/12 157.5x4x4
24/12 165x3x3
31/12 172.5x2x2
7/01 182.5x1

Rob, when are you using that two-day Total Fitness thing? Xmas Eve and New Year's Eve seem like good choices to me.

If James shows any signs of going back on his ridiculously petulant, dictatorial pronouncement then I'll consider starting it again, but it seemed to me the only thing to do. After all, he won't even let people reply to his comment - he posted it then immediately closed the thread!

Glad you've come over here though! Sugden Barbell is the new happening place to be!

Rower 500m x 2 - 1:30.8 / 1:50.0

Best 500m performance is 1:29.9 and I haven't done an all-out effort for ages, and haven't even rowed for a while, so I was quite pleased with this.

Treadmill 30 mins (Speed 6, up to incline 10)
