| second time back in the gym first one was just mainly f**king about and limbing about. strict press 20x10 50x10 60x5 70x5 80x5 this was my old 1rm 90x2 95x1was quite slow but lock it out and striaght every thing up and held it for about 5 seconds just ta make sure i was in full control of it was well impressed a 15kg pb 50x15 tried behind the neck jerk for first time on proper olly bar 80x3 90x2 95x1 was easy i put 110 on but bottled it there wasnt much room and didnt want ta kill anyone upright row thought these might help my power cleans that i cant do at mo 30plus barx10 40plus barx5 50plus barx4 40plus barx5/6/7 pulldowns and machine row not sure on weights bench press first time in about 2 and a bit years 50x10 80x3* 90x5 100x3 105x2 110x1 pb 80x10 *started of with medium wide grip but it just felt slow and weird couldnt feel any muscles working just pain in joints. so came in to just within shoulder width and it felt much nicer more controled and a lot more explosive. few hammer curls all the log work done over the last few months has made these come along alot. felt weird not touching lower body | |||

| finished off yesterdays workout should have been resting but needs must drag two tyres concrete bottle and log 15 metersx1 same as above but used my addidas wrestling boots these seem to be very effective as this time went a bit quicker i think. put belt on and tried pulling like truck pull thought this would have gone better e.g. used a lot more weight but this was not the case used the same weight did 10 meters x2 added 20kg did 5 meters took the 20kg off did 15 meters with lots of rest inbetween each go these were hard i think maybe i should get a proper harness as i couldnt breath | |||

| think this was the worst work out i have ever had due to many reasons. one the tyre push last night, the f**king weather, me being weak over head, me wanting to video one set of each excerisize. braking my back gate, using some different tacky for first time and it was like f**king butter while trying to lift stone but very good at ripping the skin of my leg later on. log clean and press 75x5 95x2 100x2and a clean stone x1 x1 and 2 squats with it x1 then binned by accident on a patch of mud(bounced of me tyres) got another rep after this but was very slippy so stopped drag two landrover tyres tied together load with concrete bottle and empty log 15 meters very fluid no stops concrete block with 40 kg on log with 20kg on and a 25litre water bottle 10 meters very hard maybe longest moved in one go was 1 meters was going ta but some more weight on and pull it forwards with belt on but i had to go pick up my little one up from nursery | |||
