| Changing up my routine from tomorrow : Monday - Pull Tuesday - Push Wednesday - Off Thursday - Pull Friday - Push Weekend off Just feeling like I need a change up and get some more frequent lifting in for each bodypart. Cardio, remaining the same for this week, maybe increased next week. | |||

| Thanks lads appreciated. Still struggling with my breathing but had a better session today... I have wrote training out 3x and the site keeps crashing ...can't be bothered again to write loads again...in a nut shell, strength up on most movements and had a huge session that resulted in a ton of PB's again. Weight and reps up on nearly everything and finished up with a HIIT session on treadmill sprints. | |||

| Feeling crap today...the asthma I have developed from the pneumonia at Christmastime hit hard during the night and this morning and I have been really struggling to breathe. Got my session in but was nothing special. Deadlifts 60kg x 5 100kg x 5 180kg x 5 220kg x 3 260kg x 2 300kg x 1 280kg x 5 Plan was to go for a max today but just the way I was feeling that wasn't happening so just did a little technique work and trialled a tweak out I have been wanting to try. Nothing special but work done. Hammer Strength Row 120kg x 15 160kg x 8 rep pb Moved back to this machine as the other one I have stacked and added weight to and i'm likely to break it so had to make the change. T Bar Row 60kg x 12 rep pb 80kg x 8 rep pb Still getting used to the set up on this but its feeling pretty nice and got a nice squeeze each rep. Straight Arm Rope Pulldown 40kg x 20 rep pb 40kg x 16 volume pb Decent increases in reps this week and moving nicely, lats burning well. Reverse Grip Hammer Pulldown 110kg x 10 rep pb 100kg x 10 Feeling heavy today but eeked out an extra rep on the first set and moved to more of a tempo set up for second set for variation. Behind Back Smith Machine Shrug 120kg x 15 rep pb 120kg x 13 Moved back to these after a good while away and still imo the best shrug variation there is for me, great ROM and muscle worked very hard. Kneeling Rope Crunch 45kg x 15 45kg x 15 45kg x 15 Knee Raises x 20 x 20 x 20 Ab work to round things off. SSCV 30 mins incline treadmill Had to slightly reduce speed today as lungs not enjoying the process. Well I got it done, felt weak and off but not unexpected considering, pleased to get what I did done though. Chest and arms tomorrow. | |||

stephen9069 said:Lol that volume is ridiculous mate id hate to see what you would be like if you missed a session i bet you couldnt sit still for 5 minutes. Lol...volume has always been something I just do, now doing a cut and bodybuilding it helps even more as I am burning more calories quite easily  | |||

John said:Always blown away when I read your journal,I'd be very interested I the diet side of things,anyone heard of the vertical diet. Awesome workouts. Thanks mate...diet is nothing special, just high protein, moderate carbs and fat...eating under maintenance to drop the fat. I di the vertical diet for a while...its no doubt effective but I found it too monotonous tbh bud. | |||

nails said: Yes, the insanity is certainly back in full force. Well you know what they say, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. I do have an SSB but it's too damn wide for my garage. I'm a bit loathe to use it outside the rack although I have done before. Yes I can see that mate...awesome bit of kit though. | |||

nails said:Awesome sessions mate, so much damn volume. SSB squats looked brutal. I do like that bar though. Ta mate, you know me...I love my volume. I am toying with changing to a push/pull/off/repeat set up but currently sessions are working so loathe to change as yet! You would love an ssb bar mate...very you, its brutal! | |||

| Cable Side Lateral Raise 5kg x 20 17.5kg x 13 rep pb 17.5kg x 10 15kg x 15 7.5kg x 21 Cable Bent Over Lateral Raise 7.5kg x 12 7.5kg x 12 10kg x 12 10kg x 12 Cable Front Rope Raise 30kg x 12 32.5kg x 12 35kg x 12 37.5kg x 12 rep pb Hit delts from every angle with minimal rests to totally pre exhaust them, very painful pump at the end, one of those times it hurts so good but you don't know what to do with your arms to stop the pain lol. Smith Machine Bradford Press 40kg x 20 60kg x 10 rep pb 60kg x 8 switch to just normal seated smith press 80kg x 8 drop 60kg x 7 drop 40kg x 10 + 11 partials to complete muscle failure. Despite pre exhausting strength well up on last week and all felt lighter, delts on utter fire at the end after that triple drop and partials finish. Smith Machine Tricep Extensions 60kg x 15 rep pb 60kg x 13 60kg x 10 volume pb Much easier than last week, reps up with ease and a huge pump, can get a good slow negative and a deep stretch on these, really like them....no elbow aggro either. Smith Machine Drag Curls 65kg x 12 rep pb 65kg x 12 65kg x 12 volume pb 5kg up and reps the same as last time, felt so light I thought I misloaded. Great pump. Tricep Pressdown Straight bar 50kg x 15 rep pb Rope 40kg x 22 rep pb Rope 40kg x 18 Prefer the rope I think but wanted to try it, now I can do these without pain its nice to push them, triceps working very hard. Machine Preacher Curls 50kg x 12 30kg x 15 30kg x 12 + 5 + 4 Biceps wasted from drag curls but banged out some reps here, quality pump. SSCV 30 mins Incline Treadmill And that was that, decent session and banged out pretty quickly, delts and arms in bits now. Weekend off...doing my PT training this weekend, might do some extra cardio but will see...2K low calorie day tomorrow then I think I may do a slightly higher day sunday but still clean. Vid | |||

| Weekly weigh in and measure...weight is up just over 1lb on last week, my waist has come in 1/2", this was week 8 of my cut. This cut is not going at all like I thought it would...muscle appears to still be creeping on despite being in a fairly hefty calorie deficit, training days I am sitting on 2800kcal and 2 off days a week I am on 2100kcals, protein still high. No changes this week in terms of diet but may switch up my training program from Monday but not decided as things are clearly working as they are. Cardio will remain the same. | |||
