another bench replacement session getting a bit boring but I'm quite restricted at to what I can do as the shoulder seems to be no better!

decided to go heavy on the skullcrushers today and they were f**king hard work!

skull crushers 46k 3/5/5 dont know what happened on the 1st set but rep no 4 was'nt happening

barbell curl strict 46k 10 cheat barbell curl 60k 4/4

might have to do some tricep kickbaks nextweek to relieve the monoteny and provoke some abuse!

Oh yes kickbacks do indeed rule the new king of exercises!

got in late tonight so short but hard session

front squats 90kx3 95kx3 100kx1/1

paused front squats 60kx2 65kx2 70kx2 75kx2 (1 minutes restbetwen sets)

reading that back it looks like f**k all but it felt really hard ,its going to be a tough day at work tomorrow!

shoulder seems to be getting worse was going to do paused back squats but couldnt get
my arm back far enough without my shoulder complaining so looks like I'll have to stick to front squats for a bit! seeing a new physio next week who is suposed to be a bit of a magician so hopefully I'll see some improvement soon!

need to work on keeping upright with the front squats as the bar was starting to pull me forward on the heavier sets still reasonably pleased with tonights effort,was hoping for 2 on the 100k but it was'nt happening ,still its a pb but only because I've never tried that weight before!doubles on with it on friday or next week and might try some half squats with 110!

Ed,
Little Pete tells me that both he and Kevin will be reffing on the Saturday so I might scrounge a lift up with them. Still not sure if Kevin is going to defend his title on the Sunday though.

triceps again today

skull crushers 46k 5 51k 3 46k 6
barbell curl 46k 10 51k 10 56k 6
dumbell skull crushers 20k 8/8/8
dumbell curls 20k 10

triceps well and truly pinged!

spent the day in the garden today with the kids messing about and having races and as I desperately tried to keep up with my 6 year old son ,tits and belly wobbling heart pumping and gasping for breath,I think I had one of those nearer to 40 than 30 mid life crisis moments ,where I realised that i have turned into a fat unfit f**ker who cant run to the end of the garden without having a mini heart attack!
I used to be a fairly athletic and 3 years ago I ran a reasonably respectable time in a half marathon so to suddenly find myself 20% bodyfat and gasping for breath is a bit of a shock!
tomorrow the fags get binned and I am going to start eating healthy, since I can only do limited training with weights at the mo I am going to start adding some anearobic cardio
such as interval sprints and pylometrics to my training ,as the extra explosiveness cant hurt the powerlifting and it will make me feel less of a fat c**t!
getting older its a terrible thing when your body wont do the things it used to do with ease!

I know what you mean! My 6 year old (nearly 7) can run like the wind and it takes some effort to keep up with him. Getting old is a f**ker no doubt about it. However, you and me we've got PBs ahead of us, so onwards to glory... or something Happy
