What about yourself, are you doing any training at the minute? Thanks for the link Joni, I shall definately try and get down to this. There's me thinking nothing ever goes on in this godforsaken s**thole of a country. (Can you tell I'm pleased to be back?) | ||

Eat.Cycle.Sleep.Win Member 2, 12511 posts SQ 190, BP 150, DL 280620.0 kgs @ 99kgs UnEq | Just doing a bit to get by mate, comeback started about 5 weeks ago. Only really doing push presses and fronties until I can put a bit more time aside but its going quite well so far. Will be good to get back at it properly. | ||

Member 379, 49 posts SQ 310, BP 170, DL 290770.0 kgs @ 96kgs Eq | Hi Adam, Hows the squatting going? I bought a Texas power bar and took it down to MX today.Martin wasn't there but Andy said I could hide it in the back room so no-one else could use it, as he was sure that someone would find a way to bend it! Well I am impressed with it, I have used one in the warm up rooms at some of the comps I have done and have to say that the Knurling is amongst some of the fiercest I have tried, it feels nice on the back and would be very good for your low back position when squatting and I am sure that nobody would fail due to lack of grip. My squats were crap as I had been on my feet all day at work and my back was hurting but I did go up to 240kg for an easy, if painful on the back double and did my usual slow motion 180kg for eight reps at the end with the usual hip pain. Not long to go now til I see about my sclerosant injections and I am looking forward to getting back up to my 300+ squats. Anyway I will probably post a comeback training log on here myself once my hip is fixed. Keep posting your progress as it is interesting to see how you are getting on. Dave. | ||

Gone squatting Member 12, 386 posts SQ 250, BP 155, DL 260665.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | Good to hear from you again Dave. It must be great to train with a decent bar in MX, thats the only thing that gym really lacked. Other than that they have everything you need. I can't imagine Martin having any objections to you using your own bar, in fact i'm sure he's quite relieved. Would be good to see you keep you're log here, have you got a date for your injection? | ||

Gone squatting Member 12, 386 posts SQ 250, BP 155, DL 260665.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | Couple of sessions to catch up on. Friday 22nd August Bit of a s**t session tonight, wasn't really in the mood for lifting. Even a good hour of Slayer and Machine Head blasting on the ipod wasn't enough to wake me up. Incline Bench 60k x 10 80k x 8,8,8 70k x 10,6 Chin Ups 15k x 3 20k x 3 25k x 2 10k x 6,6 5k x 8,8 Saturday 23rd August Not a bad session on the squats considering bodyweight is still well below 90k. Form wasn't great on some of the reps but i think this is down to weak hamstrings / lowerback, with a bit of work in this area I should be back up to the level i was at around March / April. Squats 60k x 5,5 100k x 5 120k x 2 140k x 2 160k x 2,2 180k x 5 190k x 1 150k x 10 Paused Squats 100k x 3 110k x 3 120k x 3 130k x 3 140k x 3 Stiff leg deadlifts 60k x 5 80k x 5 100k x 5 120k x 5 140k x 5 Some leg curl and leg extension to finish. | ||
