Nobbed she-ra whilst he-man watched Member 687, 260 posts SQ 170, BP 127.5, DL 215512.5 kgs @ 87.7kgs UnEq | Oh Kenny, ur a joker!!! Would be nice though Todays training: DLs (1st time in about 3 months!): Bar x some 60kg x 10 100kg x 5 140kg x 3 140kg x 3 160kg x 1 160kg x 1 140kg x 2 140kg x 2 100kg x 10 (slow, reset every rep) Was pretty pleased, all DLs at this place have to be done on these mats bout 1 inch off the floor, so I figured if I could do 160 twice, I still have it in me Front Squats: Bar x 10 40kg x 10 60kg x 5 (x5) 40kg x 12 (x2) YAY!! I do love front squats, 60kg actually felt too easy, getting a little too close to my back squats!! Mike | ||
