probably not, I don't have a camera and my workout 'regime' is not worth posting as its not organised at all. What do you do for shoulders?

Don't do anything for shoulders at the moment.

any particular reason? I dont think I could live without my military presses

It stems back to when i was boxing a bit. My shoulders get tensed quite easily and i found doing shoulder work with weights made it worse. When i was doing a lot of heavy bag work that worked my shoulders well. I have fairly broad shoulders anyway, so they dont look out of place. Heavy bench pressing works them enough for me at the moment. Although i will probably be adding some military presses into my routine at some point.

I did'nt do any training yesterday and i got up late today. My diet was crap today and i felt low on energy. Went jogging today as i really want to improve my fitness. I did'nt expect to get much volume out of tonights workout but was pleased to get 120kg bench press with good form. Im not going to class this as a personal best because im not sure if it is. I can't remember for sure, but i do think i bench pressed 120kg a few years ago when i was doing a lot of weight lifting, although if i remember rightly, my form was very, very poor so i did'nt really count it.

Got up late so did'nt do any cardio. That pissed me off a bit. Nevermind. I could still feel my triceps from last nights chest workout so i did'nt expect too much tonight. Was pleased that i had managed to increase my reps compared with last weeks.

Your squatting is coming up fast but WTF???1@195 deadlift!!!
That's a fecking nice dead.No wonder the squatting is coming along so nicely.The muscle groups you're working with deads greatly help on the squatting.
Again.Bloody nice deadlift.

Cheers! I did do a 200kg deadlift about 5 weeks ago, but i did'nt really do any sets, just a couple of singles then the 200!

Fairly pleased with my squats, still getting used to the feel of them though.

Finally got around to looking at ur journal m8, looking good, im gonna take some pointers from your routine and put them in mine. My goals to be lifting what your lifting at the moment m8. Im gonna keep tabs on this

You better get a move on then, coz im increasing each week!... ...only messing!

My increase in lifts is gonna slow down soon, it's just because i've not long been back into regular training, muscle memory in effect!

Had a look at your journal, nice progress with your deadlift, your gonna feel good when you hit that 100kg!

Nice to hear my journal is benefiting you in some way, anything your not sure about feel free to ask.

Went out on the town last night and had a few drinks. Got up late today and did'nt do any cardio. Been feeling crap the last few days with a bit of a cold/flu and a nice toothache!! Was pleased i got an extra rep with bench press at 110kg, but felt low on energy for the rest of my lifts. Will have an early night tonight.
