cheers Paul, good to see some 1 else reading my journal too. always good to have more opinions, advice n criticism from fellow lifters.

dont be depressed Vausie, id like to think most weeks il get PBs cos its my 1st SM style trainin cycle b4 i did more BB style so alot of the exercises are new to me n so is all the low reps, think iv jus hit the point wer my body has got used to it so am settin alot of PBs. also started taking creatine n cissus which will have some effect. hows the injury today - any better?

n i thought it was funny that my strict is so close to my push aswell, 1st time iv done a 1rm on strict tbh n i dont know wer the strength came from today.
just dawned on me while typing this that maybe my push isnt as good as it should be compared to my strict bcos my technique is crap with push n dnt use enough drive from my legs maybe?

dodgy session, still feel abit under the weather but wanted t lift something.
as soon as i picked a weight up my head was pounding so didnt attempt any deads.

strict press
40k x 5
50k x 5
60k x 5
70k x 5

push press
70k x 5
72.5k x 5
75k x 5

strict press 27k x 30

had a break n a creatine drink

bench press
57k x 10 felt heavy for a warm up
77k x 10
91k x 9 failed lockout on 10th rep / also felt a pain in my back
57k x 18

left it there, jus didnt have the energy as diet is still off n head felt funny (like a light headedness poss blood pressure).
overall annoyed i couldnt fit deadlifts in but happy to finally lift something

forgot to mention iv lost 6lbs in BW too Unhappy

Bingo bango bongo, pretty solid pressing.

Also, a 6lbs loss in BW... pft, that's nothing... I'd lose 6lbs overnight if I ate like a normal person for a day.

cheers paul. having abit of an off week this week while i recover. consists of sun mon tue off, then fit in the primary lifts between weds thurs - usually OH, bench press, deadlifts weds n front n back squat thurs - then fri sat sun off. this way i dont have to deload as much weight. also do about 5-10 rep sets.

another bodged session really jus a few reps of a few weights instead of nothing. guna have next 3 days off tho so i should be back to being as weak as usual by monday.

Deadlifts
100 x 2
120 x 2
140 x 2
150 x 2
160 x 1 / wanted 2 but failed 2nd
every rep felt i was guna pass out, most of them was slow n crappy, what wud b normally a disappointin session im actually quite pleased with bcos my head was that bad i was debating wether to miss deads or not, its only bcos im so weak i cnt afford to miss a week.

Fronties
41 x 5
61 x 5
81 x 4
86 x 4
91 x 4 rep PB i think
again every set was a grind, glad its over. missed back squats feel too drained.

overall prob the shortest workout in sets n reps iv done in a long time but probably the hardest ever session. iv done workouts hungover that felt easier than this. proud of myself for going through with it. smiley face for me Happy ha

Stop your moaning. Grin

Make a plan with slow and steady progression and stick to it, get more volume in and don't just make things up as you go along.

i appreciate ur concern paul however i do have a plan but with me been ill this week i was in no shape to stick to it, also i got a weird way with volume atm, e.g. say shoulders in a week, 1 day push press about 4 sets of 4. another day strict press 4 sets of 4, then followed by DB pressing for 3 sets of 10. DB's r assistance but also volume. i do this with most things i keep main exercises low reps n assistance for volume. such as deads all low reps usually n SLDL for assistance is normally sets of 10 reps. only exception is squats but i squat twice a week 1 session again low reps n the other sets of 8. also 1 week out of each 6 week mesocycle i intend to do all high rep work and another week mainly heavy singles
