Blah blah blah! I here the gassing, but all I see is a couple of weedy Manchester guys, who think that good training involves taking the whole summer off, to go galavanting on disco world tours! :P

So there it is. Weak but progressing. Back felt stiff on Monday but trained through it and it seems OK. Looking forwards to setting some PB's soon. Creatine and protein consumption has been resumed. Will start getting some vids of my training soon with my new digi camera.

Cheers guys. I plan to leave you all in my wake in the near futureWink

Post edited to include a couple of things I missed out. Here's tonight's workout:

Wed 12/9

Wide grip chins
BW x 5, +15kg x 5, +27.5kg x 5, BW x 15 ez

Supine rows (feet in flat bench)
BW x 15,15,15 not as easy as I thought they'd be

Palms facing close grip chins
BW x 10,8,10

Incline rear delt flies
12.5kg x 12,12,12

Incline DB curls
12.5kg x 10,8,6,6

Concentration curls
12.5kg x 10,8

My biceps are amazingly weak. I need to put a bit more emphasis on them so when I eventually get a tyre I can Daddy it.

On other related gym news I've 'acquired' some barrels (just need to fill them and get a couple of bigger ones).

Whats the plans for the event training now mate? Every now and again

Ive gotta pick some stuff up from Cumbria in the next month or two and my old training parter has offered to drive up. Hopefully we'd be able to pop in for some dungeon fun. That be ok?

You need to get a tyre. I think thatd be a real solid addition to your training and a really good way of getting some hardcore cardio in.

I've got 3. A mate of a mate (who happens to own a brewery, Bank Top to be precise) dropped 2 off. They are great, totally empty and de-pressurised with plugs to put in the holes when I do fill them. They are not massive barrels though. The other barrel was dropped off by a mate (he 'found' it) - this one is medium sized and I have no idea whatsoever how to get into this one. In fact it seems impossible to me. All I have to do is get a couple of bigger ones and I'll be rockin'.

Joni, the plan on Sunday(s) for me from now on involves no log. Don't see the point as it's an axle and DB press at the comp so will focus on them during the week. So, log and farmers alternated weekly (heavy), a grip event, a medley of some sort and stones. You are welcome to do log though (and knowing me I'd probably just join in and do it anyway!). How does that look to you?
