You'd hope so Bill. Today was one of those days that come around every couple of weeks. Two 6 hour train journeys this week and a resulting bad back, no training on Wednesday and seriously humid at the Farm. This session did not go to plan. Weighed in at 119.95kg.

Squats.
2 x 5 x 20
5 x 60
4 x 90
3 x 2 x 110
Should have been working trebles up to 140, however it was never going to happen today.

Bench.
2 x 10 x 20
8 x 60
6 x 80
3 x 3 x 100
3 x 5 x 85 Close grip.
All felt heavy but all done with no handouts and no spotters.

Bad day, will go for it again on Monday.

I generally un-rack and re-rack without spotters when i think that it's going to be comfortable. Today i was left in the embarrassing position of having to cry "help" when the second 105 press just got stuck on my chest... Unhappy

535.0 kgs @ 92.8kgs UnEq		Nice benching once again Ian. If your knees are are the cause of the problem with squats, why not take it easier on squats and focus on deads more. They use many of the same muscles without hurting your knees. Then when your knees are feeling up to it again, catching up again will be easier....hopefully!

This might be a plan Bill, squats were very bad again tonight.
