old age traveller Member 332, 7866 posts | Thursday 7x100m on the ERG fastest was 15.2 which 2 months ago I would of been delighted with. Friday ERG 42m 9928m Saturday Bench 140x6 140x4 quit and went for a solo 3 hour ramble which did wonders for my perspective. Had a day off the ERG ate lots. Today Bench Raw 150x3 I put my oldest loosest shirt on, after more than 2 years of Raw only it was quite a shock Dicked about added Bands and maxed out with a single on 270. Then ADDED RAM loaded 300 on the bar I failed the initial unrack got it at the second try got a touch and managed to press to lock out but could not get back in the rack. SO did a lovely negative onto the rack safeties. MY first 300 bench (all you bro) Dicked about with some low rate 500's these were the best 500m 1.59.1 10spm 500m 1.53.8 12spm 500m 1.42.9 16spm  | ||

But could you still hold 300kg over your face? They had one of our top strongmen (130+kg) on the French Ninja Warrior show a couple of times. Didn't get very far  | ||

MY first 2k was around 7.10 done on damper 10 but I was not and have never been average We went to a "try para style sports" today open for all it was much fun. The boy finally found a sport he actually took to straight away and enjoyed dun dun daaaa drum roll etc etc Wheelchair Basketball. It was an eye opener as an adult trying it much respect to those guys and gals. I also did 10minutes on a stationary bike to earn 2 passes for the local "everyone active" swimming baths. It was not as boring as i thought it might be. | ||

old age traveller Member 332, 7866 posts | Training update, there hasn't been any of note a couple of days on the erg but I couldn't get my mojo back. Have tried to bench a couple of times but again it was half hearted (or less) and even the bar felt heavy. I am content with the the pbs on the erg the only slight regret is not being mentally tough enough to have gone for a 2k when I was in physical shape for a 6.35. The bench well 173kgx1 140x8 130x12 I know I wanted the 180kg but on reflection I am chuffed with the numbers I did get as a skinny fat 52year old. Maybe next year i will feel like training again. | ||
