vausie said: dont get me started about that one i used to use it but since the gym changed hands to a council run gym chalk is banned from the bars so the girly girls dont get it on there nice new joggers Have a look on strengthshop they have some stuff on there which is suppose to be a substitute for chalk, i've been looking at getting some, cause my gym is same, not too happy if i turned up with chalk | |||

| Start of heavy WEEK 2 DAY 1 Bench 80x3/90x3/100x3/110x3/115=FAIL/110x3 Fly 18x6/20x5/22x3 Clean then Strict Press for reps 30x4/40x3/50x3/60x3/70x3/80=FAIL/75x1+2 Tricep Dip (assisted)19x6/12x8 (unnassited)6/8/6 Superset DB Side Bend 32x12/32x12/32x12 Not happy with bench  got the 110 easy, but the 115 just wouldn't budge, think i'm going to do DB bench on light weeks to strengthen staibalisersThe +2 on shouders was a little push press, and my first ever mini jerk!!! Apart from that had a decent workout, going to aim for a full set of unnassisted dips on machine, also another PB on shoulders. Any tips on benching would be gratefully appreciated as 2 weeks ago i failed after 110kg. Cheers for reading  | |||

| Had mock style 3xevent session today, got beat 2-1 by moose ;-( I'll get him next week!! Squat for single, 110,140,160,170 PB! this was the only one i won Rope pull 68kg 23 pulls in 75 secs Crucifix hold 5kg for 44secs Then just to finish legs for the week we did 3 sets of 10 barbell lunges each leg. Now i know these weights are pitifull for most of the guys on here, but gotta start some where, and got to improvise as i have a lack of equipment for event trainig. Thats all the training for this week!! Its back to heavy lifting, and i can't wait!! | |||
