510.0 kgs @ 112kgs UnEq		Some reps on squat a very lowly 102.5 x 10 for 3 sets

Bench was 130 x 2 and 120 x 5 - if it makes any difference every rep was paused, no spotter, no wrist wraps or elbow nonsense. Both sets were on the cusp of being s**t - I would like to get the bar moving a bit faster.

510.0 kgs @ 112kgs UnEq		Signed up for the East Midlands Masters GBPF in August.

Highlights of this week's training have been 150 x 8 deadlift. 100 x 10 bench and 130 x 8 squat.

Squats starting to feel a bit more like a squat than a spine snapping train wreck, which is nice.

More work next week - I hope that 175/140/200 will be possible for August. It'll need a lot of work but will be a nice way to celebrate a year out of hospital.

510.0 kgs @ 112kgs UnEq		It'd be good to see you Ian - my hopes for the 105 class appear to be misplaced as it appears that biscuits and snickers bars still exist - who'd have thought!

Today I cut the volume somewhat, but pleasing nonetheless.

Bench

110 x 8
120 and 130 singles - both comfortable

Then 5 sets of bench rows.

I've been having some cramp in my previously torn pec so I thought any more work would be foolish

510.0 kgs @ 112kgs UnEq		Yesterday was many (7 or 8) sets of bench for 5 reps with 100kg and some chest supported dumbell rows between sets, some cable upper back stuff to finish.

Today was squats for 3 sets of 5 with 120 - my right quad is giving me some pain, so I kept the volume down - I did some machine work to finish.
