First time hitting chest in a couple of weeks, either lost lots of strength or because its the first time ive used an oly bar. probs the latter.

Hi mate, just thought I would pop into your journal and say hi. I see you got your new kit you lucky bugger, looks good stuff, bet you're chuffed.
 
You've made some great progress in a short time and you're moving some decent weight as well.
 
I notice you say 36 x 10 for your hammer curl, is the 36kg both dumbells?

Cheers mate. Yea I'm really pleased with it. I've still got the lat pulldown part to put on yet.

I was using a hammer barbell thing from argos, if you know what I mean? but cant use that with the new oly weights. I need to buy a new EZ bar now, but they seem very expensive.

Ah I know what you mean now, I actually have one but don't use it. Shame you have to buy new stuff and yes olympic bars/ez bars cost a bomb, whats the cheapest ez bar you've found? If I come accross one cheaper I'll let you know.
