Roll on 5 plates per side

**Tall** · 13-02-2008, 09:59 AM

Was short of time today.

20 Rep Deadlifts @ 140kgs.

Chuff me they were tougher than I expected. May need to review my diet... Sadly I don't like baked beans so having a Jacket Spud and baked beans at not one minute later than 4.15am isn't really an option

Backdown set 8 reps @ 100kgs

**Tall** · 25-02-2008, 02:48 PM

Had a week off training last week. Hence no updates.

Training has been switched to 3x Full Body for the next 4-6 weeks. Also trying to train at lunch instead of pre-work...

Today was supposed to be Squats - but the Squat rack was occupied. So had to make some alterations...

Bench (@ 60% 1RM)
Warmup
10 @ 60kg
10 @ 65kg

Deadlifts
Warmup x forever
Left side hip ligaments still playing up. Tried increasing them ROM (using smaller plates) and then settled on decreasing the ROM - deadlifting from 2 plates (1.5" off the ground) and switching to Sumo stance.

20 x 140kg

Felt strong.

3 x 160kg
3 x 170kg
0 x 180kg

Seated Shoulder Press
2 x 10 @ 50kg -- Too light. Will increase.

Pull Ups
Hammer Grip - 2 x 3 @ BW
Palms Facing - 2 x 5 @ BW

-- I struggle to get Reps on Pulls Ups. However I think I could do them weighted if I them them RP style and Palms Facing.

Bruch Curls
50kg to Failure (9 reps)

**Tall** · 27-02-2008, 02:41 PM

20 Rep Squats
Warmup x Forever
20R @ 115kg (PB)

Hah! My body didn't see the 115kg coming - starting from the bar only I added 2.5kg/5kg/10kg as appropriate.

(25kg increase over last time...)

Bench @ 90% 1RM (Machine)
Warmup
3x3 @ 110kg (PB)

That was tough. I know its a machine but I've now hit a BW bench.

OHP (60% 1RM)
Got the levels wrong - supposed to be 2x10....

6,4,7,3 @ 60kg
