Decent day today despite carrying an injury On Saturday I feel down the stairs from my upstairs flat carrying a bin bag down, thankfully near the bottom but resisted the floor against the end wall with my right arm and tweaked my tricep/delt area. Testing today pressing appears ok oddly enough but could feel it pulling and doing biceps Will get the missus to sort it next week...just got on with it today but was twinging. Deadlifts 60kg x 5 100kg x 5 140kg x 5 180kg x 5 220kg x 3 260kg x 1 300kg x 1 332.5kg F at knees 300kg x 3 add bands to pull against (about 80kg more at top_ 220kg (300kg) x 5 rep pb 220kg x 5 250kg (330kg) x 1 PB Well 300kg flew easy so figured i'd try a PB, moved ok off floor but no cigar today no worries, just wanted a pop while feeling it. Band work was strong and much improved since last time I did them..will hammer these for a bit as they build back nicely and hit my weakness. Enjoyed these, tricep twinging a bit but eased off as I progressed. Reverse Grip Hammer Pulldowns 100kg x 20 rep pb 100kg x 13 volume pb These made tricep hurt a little but oddly eased and went away as reps progressed. Lats pumped like mad. Wide Grip Straight Arm Pulldowns 35kg x 15 rep pb 35kg x 12 + 4 R/P volume pb These feel awesome on lats, much better than a rope, crazy contractions from little weight. Kneeling Dumbbell Shrugs 62kg x 20 rep pb 62kg x 20 volume pb Reptastic and pumptastic! Close Grip EZ Preacher Curls 42.5kg x 16 rep pb 42.5kg x 13 42.5kg x 12 volume pb Weight up and reps up, again I could feel tricep but not an issue. Cable Concentration Curls 25kg x 15 30kg x 15 rep pb 35kg x 15 rep and volume pb Awesome contractions and biceps blew up like crazy, much much better than a dumbbell as you can keepa constant tension. Standing Cable Crunch 35kg x 20 rep pb 40kg x 12 rep pb 30kg x 20 Love this movement, tiny ROM but the pump and burn in abs is awesome. Cable Side Laterals 45kg x 15 45kg x 15 45kg x 15 Felt awesome, can really focus on intercostals nicely with these, immense burn as again its a constant tension, minimal rest periods. Machine Crunch 30kg x 20 rep pb 35kg x 18 rep pb 35kg x 18 volume pb Burn burn burn! Felt awesome. No rear delt stuff today as it was hurting niggle so left it there. SSCV 45 mins Incline Treadmill Done, Push 1 tomorrow. | |||

Only 30g of carbs via salad and veg going in today and 1900kcals...tomorrow I refeed Feeling good. Video of my tyre flip, not done in years and massively out of practice, also done on a slope and little decent grip via tread on this tyre but was a laugh for a change. I don't think I have done one of these since 2008 London's Strongest Man. | |||

Awesome session again today, still a tad sluggish with energy to begin with but got into my groove.. Push 2 Narrow Stance Hack Squats 40kg x 10 80kg x 10 120kg x 10 160kg x 12 rep pb 165kg x 12 rep pb 170kg x 8 rep and volume pb Huge increases again this week...weight up, reps maintained, rest reduced a little...quads felt battered ina very good way. Leg Extensions 80kg x 13 toes out rep pb 80kg x 13 toes in 80kg x 13 toes straight Massive pump..so painful after the third set, quads blew up really well. Decline Bench - 10-1-10 Method 80kg x 1 15 sec rest 80kg x 2 rest and so on up to 10 then back down, had to drop to 60kg half way through though! Utterly horrendous...the pain and pump was crazy..100 reps banged out pretty quickly and my chest was in bits….from so little weight. 80kg feels so easy to begin with but the 15 second rests are killers and I was in bits. Should have gone with 60kg from the start..so much work done with so little weight. Pec Dec 86.5kg x 16 rep pb 84kg x 10 77kg x 10 + hold on last rep until failure and a slow negative. Major pec burn after the pressing, small increases here, pecs on fire. Cable Side Lateral Raises -60 sec rests 15kg x 10 15kg x 10 15kg x 10 15kg x 10 15kg x 10 15kg x 10 15kg x 10 15kg x 10 15kg x 10 15kg x 10 volume pb These moved lovely and held the weight on rep 10 each set for a good 5 seconds. Delts blew up. Smith machine was busy so.... Strict Barbell Press 60kg x 10 80kg x 5 90kg x 2 100kg x 1 push 115kg x 1 Banged out quickly and without thinking too much...a bodyweight strict press pre exhausted is quite nice. Happy with these as not been training them really. Smith Machine now free so.... Seated Smith Machine Overhead Press 100kg x 11 rep pb 110kg x 3 rep pb 80kg x 15 volume pb Despite being fatigued by this point I got 4 more reps on 100kg than last week and a nice triple with 110kg...felt really good. Cable Side Laterals - 60 sec rests 15kg x 10 15kg x 10 15kg x 10 15kg x 10 15kg x 10 Banged out a other quality 50 reps and side delts poping in a way they never have before. Incline Hammer Press 80kg x 20 100kg x 12 100kg x 8 Subbed out tricep work for a while as tris are not a weakness and chest is so wanted more chest targeted work....these felt great on upper chest. Seated Calf Raise 60kg x 12 toes straight rep pb 60kg x 10 toes out 60kg x 10 toes in 60kg x 10 toes straight volume pb Reps up and tweaked toe position...such a painful burn...moved really well and got a nice pump. SSCV 45 mins Incline Treadmill And that was that...low calorie day tomorrow then a nice refeed day sunday. | |||

nails said:Massive set of dead there mate, nice little head flick as well. Such a monstrous weight to be repping like that. So many other PB's as well. When's the BB comp mate? Do you have a date set? Thanks mate...I am going at some point I think attempt a build up to 260kg x 20 Comp..if I do it (depends if loose skin on stomach is an issue) is June 2019 mate so finish this cut in single digit BF...assess if I would be able to get on stage ...if so a lean bulk adding size to my weak areas then a longish prep into the show. Oh and also hoping to pull 360kg next year lolol. | |||
