Scotbasher - forever Member 59, 2115 posts | Cheers Hayden! Had a birthday workout, Warmup on bike, about 6 sets of leg extensions, Bodyweight squats Hamstring curls Back was feeling better but felt it was wise not to squat. Hyperextensions followed by some stretching Bicep curls I worked the muscle groups involved in the squat as the back continues to improve day by day I will gradually up the workload. Hopefully this was just a warning shot over the bows. | ||

Scotbasher - forever Member 59, 2115 posts | Had a physio session this afternoon which helped identify a few problems in my upper back that were affecting my shoulders. Went to gym this eve just did some light bench up to 100kg as I'd had the shoulder worked on earlier. Upright rows 115lb dumbell rows up to 3 sets of 8 on 100lb tricep pushdowns with 130lb rotator cuff exercises. special trap exercises advised by physio Took it easy after the shoulder had been worked on. Have another booking next week | ||

Scotbasher - forever Member 59, 2115 posts | Missed weds due to feeling very rough, had a physio session on thurs and then did some light bench afterwards (about 130kg x 5) bit of traps and arms after that. Saturday warmup with leg extensions decided to carefully have a go at squats did 3 sets of 75kg x 8 with a belt on felt ok I will steadily work up from here over the weeks and hopefully remain injury free. Did 2 sets of wide stance stiff leg deadlift on 60 kg x6 with belt on. leg curls 4 sets 3 sets leg extensions hyperextensions b.w bicep curls I felt fairly positive about the whole session after pretty much having to avoid squatting the last 2 weeks. Big Jim did 2 decent reps on 380kg on the squat which is his last squat workout before the masters next week. | ||
