samevans		lifting thing or failing to do so	24-04-2011 @ 23:54
just got PM'd Member 1945, 685 posts	Thought i would write a journal as im not going out tonight Im 21 and weight just under 90kgs Going in for Cheshires first timers in July so thats the focus at the moment Went to the Ministry of Muscle to check it out as i was in the area 23/4 Session went like this log 65x4 75x2 80 fail fail fail bang it on top of my head time for new exercise wasn't happy with this as have got 80 before a few weeks ago but only for one rep. Went on to tyre 100x8 130x6 350 failed this for ages then gym owner and his mate came over and taught me how to do it on the 130 properly which was sound of them then got 350x1 350x3 350x2 very happy with this very sore Fingals finger got it over 3rd time round happy with this never done it before back to log 65x3 65x2 atlas stone 80kg to 48" easy for one then twinge in arm on second rep so sacked it in. got pretty excited so didn't actually get down to it due to all the equipment like a kid in a sweet shop

just got PM'd Member 1945, 685 posts	session 9/5/2011 hammer curls 5x4 17.5 kgs deadlift 3x5 170kgs 1x4 170kgs (bent my back on last rep so put it down) 1x2 180 kgs belted felt a lot nicer than last week clean and press 5x5 67.5 kgs this was hard work and a new best for working sets was pleased like rows 5x5 on 85 pretty easy was knackered tho so didn't work too hard think next week will keep weights the same look for more reps and shorter recoveries lower back still aching now so have an easier week. looking to clean and press 80 by july all being well

just got PM'd Member 1945, 685 posts	monday 28/11 row 3 minutes warm up Chins 7 6 5 6 clean and press 50 x8 65 x5 67.5 x5 72.5 x5 67.5 x5 65 x5 Deads 120 x5 157.5 x5 167.5 x5 180 x5 167.5 x5 157.5 x5 Rows 80 x4 80 x4 70 x8 70 x8 Abs (hanging upside down sit ups) 8 8 8 Rotatory cuff and stretching then leave Think session was too long, was thinking as i train shoulders 2 or 3 times a week might drop down to 3 working sets and not pyramid back down on them Also lower back felt funny on sit ups so might just stick to roll outs and weighted plank from now Any thoughts welcome
