Cheers guys. It was good fun but I do need to play sensible and get so quality work in now.

I've been away moping for a few days, feeling a bit melancholic. However, I needed to snap out of it and today was all about catharsis. A bit of explanation is needed. I've been back to the Doc's about the headaches I get and the diagnosis of TN. Long story short, because of my age (young for the condition) I have to be scanned for a brain tumour. I think without the meds (which mess with my mind as it is) I would probably have taken this better. It is after all an elimination thing. But being a drama queen, I went off the deep end and was all "the end is near". I'm over than now so it's back to doing what I love.

365kg x 1 rep --PB by 20kg
385kg x 1 rep --PB by another 20kg

The bands done go entirely slack at the top so they are still doing something. I can live with that, it's still bloody heavy.

New form drilling in nicely, Back is super tight using this, I'm almost using my arms as splints. A bit more upper back mass would help out no end.

Sorry to hear things ain't good, all being well it doesn't turn out to be something too serious and all gets sorted ASAP.

Liike you say you are back to doing something you love, which i must say appears to be going quite nicely, some mighty fine squatting mate.

Cheers guys. That lift certainly did what it intended, a lot of emotion went into it and metamorphosed into something positive.

Here's a positive side effect of my meds. They make me feel very nauseous which means I just don't want to eat. Therefore I only eat when I'm truly hungry and so mindless snacking has died a death. So now I only eat my actual meals. It's a simple thing but I'm down 5 lbs and half an inch off my waist. I'm not actively trying to recomp but "do what can, with what you have".

That's a massive session mate. Have you noticed any difference in your strength even with dropping 5lbs ?

I've got specialist appointments coming out of my ears. After doing a bit more of my own research, it's a difficult condition to diagnose. Therefore everything else need to be eliminated first. It's just damn scary when a doctor tells you it could be a brain tumour so lets can for that. Ok,excuse me while I go an have kittens.

Cheer mate. I'm going to adjust the set up for when I try again (in 4 weeks). I want the bands to go completely slack. I also want 400kg. The question is, can my grip take it...

Thanks mate. I haven't noticed a strength drop at all tbh. What I have noticed is a leaner profile. It feels like everything I've lost has been from my spare tyre. You'll hear no complaint from me about that. It is strange though, usually my fat loss is more systemic and it take a big drop to see it in the gut area.
