Rower
100m x 20 / 1min rests
All sub 19secs

Treadmill 15mins
Base incline 4 speed 6
Intervals @ incline 5 speed 15

ie, running!

It was quite fun actually, till I realised I was squatting heavy tomorrow and should probably not overdo it. Felt somewhat incongruous pounding the treadmill at 95kg next to several skinny girls.

It's all relative though isn't it? Tongue I feel skinny next to other powerlifters, even next to a fair few people at Total Fitness - but it's hard to feel skinny when you're running next to three girls barely over 7 stone making no noise while you can hear your feet pounding on the shuddering treadmill.

Squat
60x5, 80x3, 100x3, 120x3, 140x3, 155x2x4

Bench Press
60x5, 80x3, 95x3, 110x3x6

Squat

Shrug
70x10, 100x10, 120x10x3

The heavy squats weren't a breeze but were far from difficult - as it should be, but it's still reassuring that the heavier weights are still going OK. Need to get to 200kg before Rob! I was going to do multiple sets of 10 after the heavy work on Thursdays but this was a bit knackering so I might stick to one big set of 10, getting back up to 140ish in 5 weeks. Going to do 10 rep sets of SLDLs as well, starting tomorrow at 120. Not done it alongside conventional DLs before, but f**k it, it's only for 5 weeks: I'm going for broke.

Good session. Getting some decent heavy squats in - want to hit 175 for 2-3 singles the week after next and at least 165 for doubles.

Also, have to concede that seated DB presses are easier - in terms of weight - than standing barbell presses. Can't understand it, but there it is. I'm still s**t at them, mind.

Squat
60x5, 100x3, 120x2x10 (Might have been 12 sets, can't remember now)

Bench Press
60x3, 80x3, 95x3, 110x2, 120x3x5

Excellent work!! This was the best bench day in ages. Was planning to do 120x2x3 but the first set was so easy I added another rep and just carried on. Could probably have got 4 reps on at least the first three sets. If I had the same "PB" philosophy as some people around here I would definitely be writing it here.

Shrug
60x10, 90x10, 120x10, 140x10x3

Barbell/EZ-Bar Curl (Pump 'n' tone giant set)
40x10, 35x10, 30x10, 25x10, 20x10

Feeling good about things right now.

You don't know do you?

While you've been away we decided (unanimously) that 'volume pb's' are not allowed, so it is definitely not a PB.

Rep pb's (for most weight obviously) and singles are only allowed on this website. Just thought I should let you in on that one. Pop over to my log to see some of them.Wink

Only playing with you mate - good work! Can't remember if it was 10 or 12 sets on the squats!!!? s**t, I wouldn't be able to count past 2!

Good post Millsy. Nobody is really abusing the PB system at the minute. Even Rick!

Don't get the ones in my log confused with volume PBs - they are genuine ones; just because I do multiple sets of them doesn't change that!! Wink

Ah, this must have been what threw me! I had witnessed the entirely justified banning of spurious so-called volume PBs, but somebody's log had led me to believe they were still at large.

For the record though, my previous best with 120 was 3,3,2 - and that was at a time when my bench was going fairly well. It's odd having such a good day all of a sudden - cos I was expecting to have to work really hard just to get back to where I was before the 3x3 scuppered things. Then again, maybe the volume in the 3x3 did actually lay a good foundation that just needed building on with heavier weights again - but it's impossible to be able to judge that.
