Thanks guys. I felt pretty good after the workout - decided that I had done pretty well for my first session and look forward to taking on the equipped stuff again until I master it Grin The bruises are the biggest discomfort as I bruise very badly and takes a long time to go away!

On an upside, I am starting to *want* my knee wraps tighter these days - must be a good sign!

If you don't have a big Phil, you need a dance

Friday 16th Nov

Swim in the morning.

Equipped squats
Bought some Titan suit-slip-on tights and it made all the difference Grin
10x20kg suit bottoms
5x60kg suit bottoms
3x80kg suit bottoms
3x90kg straps up - not parallel
3x100kg straps up and loose knee wraps - not parallel but easy as pish!
3x3x110kg everything pretty tight - wasnt paralllel but I think it was more psychological than anything. Was pretty easy Grin Was going to do another set but was suddenly hit by fatigue so stopped. First time I have shouldered 110kg on squats - felt HEAVY.

Deadlifts (raw)
5x60kg
3x90kg
3x100kg
2x110kg
5x2x120kg - wow tiring!

Rows
3x10x40kg

Shrugs
10x40kg
10x50kg
10x60kg
10x70kg which is about the right working weight for me

Pullups: 4,4,3,3,3,3

Hanging leg raises 3 x 5
L-hold leg raises 3x10
V-ups 3 x 20
Reverse hypers 3 x 10
