28/7 - MY BIRTHDAY!!
Squats
220 * 2, 2, 2, 2,

Good mornings
140 * 5, 5, 5, 5, 5.
Long pause front squats
140 * 1,
160 * 1,
180 * 1.
First time doing vaguely heavy back squats for what feels like forever. These moved easily enough, but didnt feel as comfortable as squats used to. Im sure another few sessions will have me back in my squatting groove, and able to start pushing for some big numbers, its been far too long since i hit a PB squat.
A little deadlift session tomorrow morning, then i fly off to the south of France for a couple of milestone birthdays in the family (my own 30th among them)

Keg loading
up to 4 kegs - very fast.
Keg toss
2 * 2
Just a quick one today, trained events that my training partner has coming up in comp. Keg loading was great, by far the best runs ive ever done.
First time ive got round to trying keg toss, it was ok, but not special.
Back in the gym tomorrow for a proper session, managed to keep my weight up on holiday so hoping strength will still be there.
