Let do this. Member 3512, 2473 posts SQ 200, BP 140, DL 252.5 592.5 kgs @ 80kgs UnEq	Veebs said: General feeling: Did not come prepared to this session and head was elsewhere --> not a good feeling. Bench felt awkward due to Olympic bar (narrow and spinny). Basically tonight I simply moved stuff around: having no plan when going to the gym is like not hitting depth on a squat; tonight I achieved no lift. You say this but if you look back at what you did it was a very strong workout. Especially those deads. When you are on it there will be PBs in there.

I do not know what happened on that first rep. Did it make it better that I paused the very last one?

Regular chest press (machine) x8 at 70kg x8 at 70kg x8 at 70kg Lat pulldown to chin x8 at 70kg x8 at 60kg x8 at 60kg --> not liking this machine: will have to try something else. Any suggestions welcome. General feeling: Nice and enjoyable session, nothing that particularly made me tick re form or set up. Need to do again.

Let do this. Member 3512, 2473 posts SQ 200, BP 140, DL 252.5 592.5 kgs @ 80kgs UnEq	The first rep being the worst one is a habit i am trying to shake. On the platform you only get 1. I find that not moving on from a warm up weight until the weight moves nicely helps. Sometimes the first set at 60 will be good, sometimes it will take 3 or 4, sometimes my 140 wont move so well so I will have to take a couple of goes at it. Having said that, strong work.
