Sparrow said:The sorest I have ever been was after doing a Bodypump session (work forced me to at the time). I have never met anybody who got swole from doing Bodypump alone.


I did one once and I agree that it's also the sorest I have ever been. Far worse than twenty rep squatting even.

Barbell row
60 x 10
90 x 10
100 x 10. 3 sets.

Wide grip pulldowns.
Sets of 8, worked up to almost the full stack. A definite weakness.

125 x 3.
160 x 1. PB.

Bench Press
70 x 10
90 x 5
110 x 3
120 x 3
130 x 3
140 x 3
150 x 1
162.5 x 1 PB

Pleased with this, haven't benched in a while, I think the addition of more overhead pressing has made the difference. I didn't have a front shoulder before hand.

Close grip bench
110 x 6. 5 sets. Paused first and last.

Strict Press
50 x 10. 3 sets.

Tricep 100 rep challenge.
A bit of fun, hell of a pump from it but not a whole lot of weight to speak of. Various pushdowns basically.


Done. Happy with today. I think 180 is a very real possibility on the bench this year with this 162.5 off the back of very little training.

I suppose Misha would count as an Olympic lifter, there's a video of him behind the neck jerking 270.

Deadlift
Warm up
145 x 2

I've decided to try and get into doing pull ups, back when I was lighter I could knock them out quite well. I'd be lucky with 2 nowadays.

X 10. Felt quite reliant on him though.

Well every new burst of enthusiasm is normally met with a stumbling block. My back has been out of action for a few weeks, I've been to the specialist and had a few appointments to try and realign my pelvis. Four weeks until my first strongman comp and it doesn't look good, I'll still take part just to get a feel for the experience.

Squat
Went to 140 and stopped, back isn't ready for this yet

Strict press
60 x 8
72.5 x 3
77.5 x 3
80 x 5
50 x 10. 3 sets.

Close grip bench press.
80 x 10
85 x 8
90 x 5
100 x 10

Front squat
80 x 5
90 x 5
100 x 5

Dumbbell press
32 x 6. 3 sets.

Stretching and foam rolling the quads and hips.

Done. Feel better mentally after doing my something for the first time in a while. Slow and steady progress to be made from now on. Try to build some sort of shape for the BDFPA full power early next year.

Smolov for squats. The one phase is 4 weeks with a PB aimed for on the end of week 4. It is brutal but it works.

I've always been amazed how much people care about others being gay, transexual, religious or any other sort of social group. I genuinely don't understand it, I really don't care what someone else does as long as they aren't hurting anyone else. I don't support this 'they can't do that because it offends me' either. I read somewhere that its like saying someone eating a cake offends you because you're on a diet.

Question though, what do people make of the huge amount of publicity and award for bravery that Kaitlyn Jenner has received?

25/7/15

Squat
Warm up
150 x 5
160 x 5
170 x 5

Felt awful. Feel like I have no leg power. A few months ago this would've felt easy.
Started on sets of 10 lighter but my back gave out so I called it a day. Need to see the osteopath.
Let's hope for something positive next week.

I've had this quite a lot in the past, particularly if I go through a stage of squatting more frequently than usual.
I've found stretching can help a bit but I've yet to find a cure.

I couldn't agree more mate haha.

Warm up

His brother could be a force to be reckoned with in the not to distant future. Pulled a 382.5 deadlift looking at his Facebook and a 180 log. 6 foot 8 as well.
