Burneys first SUC - Final pics on the first page

Looking good in here mate, congrats on the PB.

Cheers OTF.
 
Shoulders and arms today. One of the best sessions I've had in ages. Not sure if it was because the gym was quiet and I could do more of what I wanted without waiting about.
 
Also confidence is growing at standing OHP. Still not much weight but it's feeling better!
 
BB OHP - 2 warm-up sets  -  50kg x 6 - 50kg x 5(just managed it)  -  40kg x 10 -  40kg x 8  -  40kg x 12(a few of them were with leg drive).
 
Rear delts DB - 7.5 x 12 x 4
 
Lateral cable raises - 4 x 12
 
Machine shoulder press - 2 x 15
 
 
Tricep pushdown and overhead rope extensions on cable
3 x 12 on each then drop a plate on each and repeat 3 times. PUMPED!

Good to see you're gaining confidence in the OHP mate, have you tried push press' too?

I actually love doing traps on a rest day. My grip is so much better than it would be after doing everything else.
 
I haven't tried push press on it's own but when I can't do anymore reps when shoulder pressing I use the leg drive to get the weight above my head

My own OHP is the bain of my life mate, been trying to get a lowly 75kgs for weeks, 70 no problem, but that extra 5kgs just ruins my form, the resentment is building and things are getting personal
 
Have a good weekend dude!!

Cheers OTF. I get like that with some lifts too, if it gets too long without making progress I try and switch it up a bit.
 
Just done a 5 mile walk to a local holiday camp to hand in a CV and covering letter. Will count that as cardio.
 
Took a picture on my phone of the 'beach' and wind turbines out at sea along the way.
 

ah like it mate, I am by the sea too, but mine is usually full of dead bodies

Haha where abouts are you? It was bloody freezing walking along the seafront today.

Lytham St Annes

Never heard of it before but had a quick look on google. Right close to Blackpool, didn't think it was that bad around there? Lol

Hello mate, how's it going? Long time!
 
30lbs in 90 days?  Are you eating everything you see?

Hello mate, how's it going? Long time!

Hello mate nice to see ya. Everythings good my end thanks, what about you? I see you're running a journal, I'll have to drop in sometime soon. I haven't really strayed out of the SUC section if I'm honest but will have to come and visit a few journals soon
 
The 30lbs in 90 days thing was just a joke. I nicked the thread title from some fella that posted in the diet section about it a few weeks ago. He seemed to think he could do it

Chest, tris and Calves today.
 
Decent session, really struggled with strength today for some reason but still trained hard so it's all good!
 
Tried getting the usual 35's into place and nearly had an accident. Actually that reminds me... last summer I was incline benching 30's and was really struggling with my last rep... Managed to get to the top and my arms just gave way and one of the DB's hit me in the face Had a nice cut above my eye and a black eye for a good few days, it was pretty funny actually. Wouldn't dare use the 30's again for a session or 2 either haha. Thought I'd share that.
 
 
Incline DB Bench - 2 warm-up sets  -  35kg x 5 (even getting it into place I nearly dropped it)  -  32.5kg x 8  -  32.5kg x 8  -  25kg x 12

Well done to your boys hey!
 
I almost had an accident with the BB on the weekend - it slipped out my hand at the top of the CGBP and luckily I had the spotter arms in place otherwise there would have been 60kg into my ribs!

Cheers Captain, great win, I'm gutted I didn't go now! Lucky there then that would have hurt I reckon .

Half arsed leg session today, still recovering from saturday nights antics. Social life kind of seems to be taking over at the min which is bad in a training sense but I'm enjoying myself for once .

That's it, legs were hammered and I couldn't be arsed to do anymore. I'll be feeling more upto it tomorrow.

Feeling more positive today which is good.
