There's video available of the 170, but it's a bit boring. Today Squats Same depth as the 140*5 or deeper 60 * 5 100 * 5 110 * 5 120 * 5 130 * 5 - Feeling knackered 140 * 5 - Quite a sweat on 150 * 5 - Bleh, too tired to carry on Still felt like more of a back workout, legs don't feel worked hard. I think next time I'll go 100, 120, 140, 160 rather than 10 kg steps. Didn't find it any harder going slightly deeper, if anything a little easier. Dumbbell Rows 55 * 8R + 8L 60 * 8R + 8L 60 * 8R + 8L I can't really fit any more on the dumbbell without using 10kg plates which reduce the ROM, but I'm not sure I get more from 60 than from 45... it's harder to really concentrate on any part of the lift in the same way. Still, variety is the spice of life and all that. | ||

Member 351, 107 posts SQ 190, BP 180, DL 255625.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | Today was a little more upper body work as my legs/back are feeling tired after some walking. Bench Press 60 * 6 - Paused 100 * 6 - Paused 100 * 6 140 * 1 145 * 6 -  I loaded one side but not the other, unsurprisingly it was a lot of work to keep it under proper control150 * 5 - Felt good, but hard work after the last set, pain in my right wrist so I dropped the weight down a lot 100 * 10 100 * 10 100 * 10 - Not full ROM, working the lower part of the rep more 60 * 10 60 * 10 Plate Flyes Working mid-deltoid and using plates rather than DBs as I couldn't be bothered loading up the DBs. 10kg * 10 10 * 10 5 * 10 5 * 10 Felt quite a good session overall, probably because I was in the mood for it. It's not following any plan, just what I feel like I can do at the time and trying to mix up heavy weights and form/control/higher reps work. I got a good pump at the end as well!  I've not repped 150 before either. | ||

Member 351, 107 posts SQ 190, BP 180, DL 255625.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | Missed out a couple of sessions including squats to 160*5 and paused technique squats using 100 & 140 kg to maximum compression. Today: Bench Press 60 * 10 - Felt like nothing 100 * 5 - Felt silly light 140 * 1 170 * 1 - Felt good 175 * 1 - Felt good 180 F - Miserable and painful I don't know if I got the wrong line or if I was tired out by the two previous sets. It felt good on the way down but just stopped on the way back up.Finished up with supersetted CGBP@60kg and EZ-Bar curls@38kg with no rest until I couldn't take any more :'( Felt quite ill after that. | ||

Warmed up with 100*10 on bench - still quite stiff. Clean & Standing Military Press 50 * 10 60 * 10 70 * 8 70 * 8 - Last two reps had leg drive involved 60 * 10 50 * 10 Lateral Flyes 10 * 10 10 * 10 10 * 10 5 * 10 Painful pump after these I did some rowing as well with 50 kg and concentration curls for fun given the new mirror *999, 1000, 1001... | ||
