Um, well, em - still doing lots of cycling  Survived the uplift day (just about) - just three crashes and a smashed up helmet  Have been doing a bit of weights - bit of benching which is going nowhere, but squats seem to be creeping up still. This is last nights session: Warm-ups with free squats then 20 kg: 10, 10, 10 30 kg: 5 40 kg: 5 45 kg: 5 50 kg: 3 55 kg: 3 60 kg: 3 65 kg: 3 70 kg: 1, 1, 1 - decided I should prolly try and lift something half decent - all easy enough. Was training on my own but sure they were all depth Front squats 20 kg: 3, 3 30 kg: 3 40 kg: 3 50 kg: 1 - I think this is a PB?? - was easy enough there's more there 40 kg: 3 Push pressing - dont think my shoulders are ever going to be ok but just grateful I can puch press anything again 20 kg: 5, 5, 5, 5 30 kg: 3, 3, 3 | |||

| Um, well, um - yeah not alot of lifting going on here again. Managed to train a couple of times - bit of bench and deadlifting but so unspectacular I can't be arsked with writing it up. Have completely lost my apetite again this week - but there is a small bonus. Not only would I defo make the 52 kg class - chinups are so bloody easy :lol: More cycling tommorow - first attempt at a proper downhill course - with uplift So no bloody riding to the top of the hill. How happy am I? All the fun without the CV | |||

Martin1956 said: Yup! Sorry to have nothing more challenging this week. Mind you, there's no rule that says I'm the only one allowed to put up dingbats on here. LGB will be disappointed, btw. Once again, my attempt to bring some pleasure into her life has been hijacked by some guy jumping in before she's even had a chance to look at it.  Indeed - I appreciate your efforts though Martin - even if they are scuppered at the last minute by these big brained boys.  I shall just have to keep a closer watch on the thread to make sure I don't miss anymore excitment.

Right - I did the Helvellyn ride and carried the 32 lb bike plus heavy rucksack on my back all the way up Gisburn pass and Dollywagon Pike to nearly get blown off the ridge in the 50 mile an hour winds and hail. However, all this endurance effort would have been well worth it for the descending - except I managed to come off 1/4 of the way down the first descent and break my brake lever. Front one in all - so that was the end of most of my riding and I had to push it most of the way back down  However, I will be going back in September to do it all again - hopefully with a fully functioning bike Anyway - I haven't been able to get to the gym all week - but have managed a couple of sessions at home. Normally I struggle to get anywhere near the same weights at home (I like to kid myself that mine are heavy) but it wasn't too bad considering. I think I have lost yet more weight as I just haven't been wanting to eat a great deal lately. However, had a pretty good squat session again tonight so it aint all bad. Prolly should make an effort to deadlift again at some point in the near future. TUESDAY Bench - warm up 20 min cycle on hills on bike W/U with dumbells and 3 sets 10 with bar 25 kg: 8, 8 30 kg: 8 35 kg: 4, 4, 4, 4 Rows and push press THURSDAY Squat day Warm up free squats - felt really good considering how crap I had been feeling today. Bar 10, 10 30 kg: 5 40 kg: 5 (was flying up) 45 kg: 5 50 kg: 5, 5 60 kg: 5, 5, 5, 5 - all felt pretty deep and apart from the third set, were flying up. Core stuff Goodness knows where that squat session effort came from | |||

Fatpete said: I think Martin is trying to trick us, it should be IX not 1X IX equals 9 making it on cloud nine yup - you must be right - it has to be that. Martin - you can't write them wrong - my head has been going round in circles all day trying to work out where the 1 fitted in!! | |||

Joni said: just came back from helvellyn! really nice place, was really positively suprised. All the best with it, enjoy! is that bald guy doing the race as well? The lakes are lovely aren't they It's not a race luckily - just an enduro ride with friends. I'm feeling full of a cold today so I may even have to pull out  No place to be sick on top of a moutain with a 33lb bike on your shoulders. Nope the bald guy isn't coming up - although he has just got himself a new bike and is storming ahead of everyone else | |||

Martin1956 said: littlegirlbunny said: there is no peace for the wicked!!!!!!!!!!! At last!!!!!!!!! Good one that, isn't it? Now what about the nimbus one? Certainly is! It's so funny how close I was without even meaning to be. Really bizarre! The nimbus one I am stuck on at the moment. I have a couple of ideas but neither seems right. | |||

Now that's really confused the issue! Is the other one overcast? (I.e one big cloud?) (clutching at straws here - it's been a long day lol) | |||

1X NIMBUS Gone in sixty seconds??? The other one has something to do with the missing 2p's I think. Heck I'm out of practice lol | |||
