| Trained at the new gym, definitely need to get used to the equipment.. Deadlifts 3 @60kg 3 @100kg 3 @140kg 3 @180kg (Belt) - felt like my back was rounding so recorded next set. 2 @180kg - horrendous bend in my lower back. 3 @167.5kg - again, lower back rounding. Decided that I need to fix my lower back rounding. 5/6 x 1-2 @140kg no belt Squats (low bar) 3 @60kg 3 @100kg 1 @140kg 3 @140kg (belt) Squats (high bar) - trying to get the form for these 5 x 3 @60kg 2 x 3 @100kg (paused) Glute ham raises 3 x 3 @BW - no assistance DB rows (loose form) 5 @20kg 5 @40kg 5 @47.5kg 2 x 5 @55kg Definitely need to sort out my deadlifts, I think I'm very hamstring weak, so will make sorting them a priority. Along with trying to just keep as tight as possible. | |||

| Not that it makes a huge impact but the 8th marks 1year anniversary of surgery.. Been looking after my back and pretty much had a week off/very light stuff. So.. Squats 20 @20kg 5 @60kg 3 @80kg 3 @100kg 1 @120kg 1 @140kg Belt onwards 1 @150kg 1 @162.5kg (PB) - hips still came up too early Fail @170kg - think I definitely had 165 in me, but again.. hips rose too quickly. Probably too big of a jump by going straight up to 170. Military 20 @20kg 5 @40kg 1 @50kg 1 @60kg 1 @65kg 1 @70kg Fail@72.5kg 1 @72.5kg (PB) Fail@75kg Bench 20 @20kg 5 @40kg 3 @60kg 1 @80kg 1 @85kh 1 @92.5kg Fail@100kg - didn't get it purely because I wasn't strong enough, which I'm taking as a good sign as no pain in my shoulder. Overall happy with today. Resetting my,5/3/1 numbers and going again for a while before attempting any more 1RM's. | |||

fctilidie said:Some solid training going on in here as I'd expect. Hope it's just a twinge and not an injury. To be honest I want to do more, but I'm doing the base of smolov and smolov jr for OHP and decided to just stick with the programme then take it from there. I think it's just a tweak as the more I'm rolling it etc the better its feeling. A week on sat il be coming to Vulcan to test (hopefully) new maxes | |||

| No food..was not feeling great, non the less.. Squats 5 x 7 @130kg, However, on the 3rd set I paused the last rep, from then on my right lumbar region felt like it was on fire. Last set was probably the best in terms or speed etc, didn't pause between any reps and still got them done. Military 7 x 5 @57.5kg, once I got into the groove these felt easy as per. Came home, waiting for food. Back is in pieces, hopefully il be able to walk tomorrow.. | |||

vausie said:nice journal mate sensible goals aswell il follow this with interest nice to follow journal with guys similar strength to my own how come you never had the bicep repaired Cheers! Because I tore the long head and the way it attaches its practically impossible to get it back.. And would potentially compromise the repair of my pec. Functionally my bicep feels fine, maybe 95% strength compared to my other arm. Your deadlift is huge for your weight D: | |||

| Trained in new gym today.. Place has tons of equipment, but the one thing that matters is useless. The squat rack has safety raises that are fixed and they're too high for me to squat in.which means taking about 4 steps back then squatting without rails. Not happy. However, there is somewhere to do GHR'S and they're not bothered about chalk for deadlifting in future. Squats 4 x 9 @120kg - felt really easy. Military 6 x 6 @55kg - again, easy. Then some rehab/general messing around on some of the new stuff. My lower back is still sore but it's the last week of the base cycle so should be all good when I get the week off squatting. | |||
