Do you tape or wear wrist wraps?

I wear wrist wraps for everything now mate. Never wore anything really before I damaged my wrist, only on event days. Probably why it's screwed up!

My chest used to be strong, now it's an uphill battle. All else is good though. How old are you if you don't mind me asking? Danny must be busy..

Never really been one to bench mate, hate the exercise to be honest lol. I'm 29, been training patchy for 3yrs.

Yeh haven't seen Danny in a while, must be very busy indeed!

Yesterday I tried to bench. Weak as blankety blank. Did them after farmers though. Bench puzzles me. I am at a conference. There are a bunch of geeks here. It's odd that I am getting the highest grades though.

Deadlift
Bar x 12 x 2
60 x 5
100 x 2
140 x 2
Add belt
180 x 4 x 2 - second set was way better
185 x 3
Back wasn't feeling great at all to be honest, so wasn't too bad. It's the most I've lifted for a few months anyway. And I think the triple was somewhere between 5 and 10 kg off my pb triple. So it's coming back for sure :-)

3 sets of bodyweight hangs to failure

Haven't been able to get in all week, had s**t loads on and got bitten by something when strimming the garden and my arm blew up for 3 days and was pretty painful, gone down now but still itchy. Also since squats last Sunday my lower bicep has been aching, like a light strain, so wanted to rest it a bit.

Deadlift

Bar x 12 x 2
60 x 5
100 x 3
140 x 2
170 x 1
190 x 5 - pb don't think I've gone over 180 for 5 reps
205 x 1 - wanted a double but the 1st was so slow I knew it wasn't going to happen.
My biceps killing again now so need to sort it before I put any more strain on it, which just about every exercise does! Ice and anti inflammatorys when I get home

nice deads!

caution on the bi mate...maybe use straps on the heavier weights until it settles?
