The daily max felt poor, but working back up I felt better and hit a nice triple. Bench, medium grip 20kg x 5 x 2 40kg x 3 x 2 60kg x 3 80kg x 2 90kg x 1 95kg x 1 100kg x 1 105kg x spotted 105kg x 1 PB 95kg x 2 85kg x 5 PB Cool... Pendlay row 60kg x 5 70kg x 5 75kg x 8 PB OK. | ||

Deadlift 60kg x 3 80kg x 2 100kg x 1 120kg x 1 140kg x 1 160kg x 1 180kg x 1 195kg x 1 205kg x 1 PB Wahoo, matched my equipped deadlift PB without a suit on. Best thing is that I don't think I was 100% today. The last couple of inches were a mega grind. | ||

I've found a decent enough looking gym round the corner so will try and train there at some point soon. | ||

Member 2213, 300 posts SQ 235, BP 130, DL 215580.0 kgs @ 75kgs Eq | My hotel told me I could use a local hotel's "gym" for free so I headed there today. Friday 12th August 18:00 -- PM Session Oly squat Bar was approx. 10kg and racked on dipping bars, a real shoddy make-shift set up 30kg x 3 x 2 60kg x 3 70kg x 3 100kg x 3 110kg x 3 120kg x 3 126kg x 3 128kg x 3 Had to be careful with weight selection as dumping the metal plates onto a tile floor would have caused a lot of damage. Fatigue kicked in quick too as the place was a green house, it must have been well over 30C in there. Happy with this as maintenance work though. Bench, medium grip Approx. 10kg bar on unsafe rack 20kg x 5 40kg x 5 50kg x 5 60kg x 5 70kg x 5 80kg x 5 Fortunately a friendly ex-pat came in when I got a bit of weight on the bar and gave me a spot. This was essential as the bar only just fit into the rack so a slight misplacement could have been problematic. Again, I'm happy with this as maintenance work. I couldn't work out any way of deadlifting or doing overhead work with the equipment I had to work with. I'll just get in when I can and do squats and bench. That should be fine for maintenance over a week. | ||
