dannyboy73 said:All looking good here. any pending weight/rep goals at the moment? No just getting in shape for comp really. Have 80 log, 100 frontie, tyre flip into 80 farmers, Max dead, 100 stone. Just trying to hit comp weights regularly. I will in no way be 'ready' after injury, but I'll be going balls out on the day! | |||

The_Lone_Wolf said:In recent weeks I've developed some form of leprosy and I'm starting to fall apart... Wednesday nights tip dipping into block pulls has left me with a strained left trap, and I think I slept funny which caused my left shoulder to be a bellend. Regardless of my new found disease I woke up 10 minutes before my alarm and even thought about sliding my hampton into the good lady... In the end I fell asleep and was woken by alarm. Out of bed, kettle on and get the wheels in motion. I did some light band work in the kitchen to try and loosen up, with the hope that my left shoulder would cheer up. I felt like a young Mr Motivator for a few seconds before going to the toilet for my usual caffeine induced clear out. I got to the gym at 6 and went through the usual motions. Warm ups with some bands and I resorted to the spikey massage ball to work my on left trap. I thought I'd play it safe and do some light benching as my left shoulder was being a bit iffy. Bar x 10 40kg x 5 60kg x 5 80kg x 90kg x 5 100kg x 5 Despite some sloppy lines, it all felt easy enough but my left shoulder was still not behaving. I dropped the weight down for some speed work and to take it easy. 70kg x 3 for 8 sets Some of these were silly fast, but my left shoulder/pec were still giving me a little bit of hassle. More shoulder work with bands and stuff. Some DB Shoulder pressing. More band work. Done. By the time the session was done my lefty felt better, so I need to keep on top of that with some prehab. I got on the scales when I got home and was bang on 115kg... The missus then commented that my power belly was looking impressive, or what he really meant was, I'm getting too fat. What is life... Absolute lols. How do you feel about being a more portly gentleman? Do you enjoy the powerful feeling? Do you feel slower? When I hit 97 Jan 15, I felt strong but slow. Now I feel weak and fast. There is no middle ground. Ha | |||

I find they burn more on the way out. A paused 120 is awesome after losing a high % of BW down the council gritter. | |||

The_Lone_Wolf said:That's a fair amount of work for 25 minutes! I'm just about getting warmed up after 25 minutes. My warm up is the set with the empty bar. Haha. Usually I like a 15 min warm up at least. But it's the only time I get to train on the 6-2 shift. | |||
