Not been training my chest heavy (15+ reps) also just stopped cutting. Did use a heavy weight at the end of nov and got 65/70kg for 6-8 I think but this was too much coming back from cutting so I took it easy and tapered my cardio down to 20 mins and built the weight up slower

Went back to heavyish weights on monday. 60/65kg dumbells for 8-10 reps. Maybe heavier next week.

semi-seriously through my late teens and then very seriously from late 19 (i'm now a few months into 21), so i guess about 18months seriously.

when i started training seriously i was doing 6-5-4 of about 85kgs with crap form. now 5-4-3 120 with good form !
