Default Re: Pikey's progress

Must be something about me and trains, I was down London again on Thursday and the train service cancelled at Derby then after everyone had got off the thing they told everyone to get back on – and the government wonders why people don’t use public transport!

Had some good workouts, my calf didn’t bother me training quads last night which was pleasing. Thursday night I flat benched for the first time in months I was chuffed stronger for 12 reps than when I left it alone. One of my favourite chest warm up exercises is max reps with 100K, I normally fade somewhere between 21 and 27 reps and find that gets plenty of blood in. I very rarely push heavy for low reps since the pec tare (that would be the last 14 years  ) Recently I’ve not been free bar benching at all preferring to use an isolation movement to pre exhaust and then when I have used a compound exercise benched using a Smith machine and taking the weight down to my throat for the extra stretch.
Thursday I just flat benched, incline flyes for 12’s and then Pec Dec which is something else I don’t do much of. Probably because I hit two exercises I don’t do but I’ve a good ache.

As I’m dieting now I’m going to try and keep off the scales – will be hard I’m almost addicted – and try and just go on the mirror.
