Cheers mate, high praise indeed. I would like to be more consistent if I'm honest, had a few life hurdles recently but they will pass. I could also do with being a bit leaner for my next grading in March. Some nice reasonable goals.

More cracking work mate I like the look of those ring push ups and have looked at buying a set myself.

Thanks mate. Rings are a relatively cheap bit of kit, I got mine for about £20 including the ratchet straps. i haven't make much use of them which is a mistake really as they are a very big bang for buck modality. The only drawn back is, it can be a ball ache changing the heights when you want to switch between exercises. That's the main reason I haven't used them much #Lazybas***d.

I realised I need some heavy spinal loading in order to maintain this ability. It felt good to put something reasonably heavy on my back again. I expect these to be hard but in fact they were on the easy side. Form feel much improved and my upper back is certainly stronger. While my quads have always been strong they feel also feel stronger. The SSB is a fantastic tool and even though I haven't used anywhere near the same weight as regular squats I feel I've made some good gains.

Awesome KM session last night, the main focus was break falls and rolls. So so many rolls. Part of it involved doing 6 forward rolls over obstacles and then getting up and striking the pad at the end. Talk about dizzy my head was all over the place and finding a target was a challenge to say the least. A few rounds of that and I was ready to chunder. I carried on though, especially when I saw others quitting. I had to be the last man standing. I've been paying for that victory ever since though. I still feel sick today.

That's it for this cycle of bench, feel like it went well and has been productive. However next cycle I'm going to make a change. I'm going to go for reverse bands as this give me the overload in my triceps that I need. I will also force me to be more explosive. These are all positives. I think I'll start with 160kg as this will put the weight on my chest at ~100kg. Hmmm, maybe that is a bit on the light side, I'll experiment and find out.

Gripped a KB on it's side while resting between sets. Alternating between hands each rest period. Damn that was hard on the thumbs.

Cheers mate, not fast enough for my liking Roll-Eyes, compared to 85kg that is. Give it a few weeks and it will get better, there's 7 more weeks to get it right until the next increment. That boat rope is nasty for someone with soft office hands like me. But for someone with mans hands like you I should imagine it would be less taxing. It is a brutal variant though.

Ouch my thumbs really hate me today. The KB holds yesterday have destroyed them. This is awesome though since increasing my thumb strength will help with grabs and control (for KM).

Your consistency is excellent mate I don't think iv read anywhere in your journal were you have taken more than a week or two off and your strength shows it mate.
