Friday LEGS

very good session today got some knee wraps!

so i did a few sets up to 160kg for 5 reps raw.

then wrapped up nice and tight, got shown how to do it right (OUCH!!! PAIN)

170KG X 5
180KG X 3
180KG X 3

thats 4 plates! felt damn good! wanted to put more on but thought i'd betta not get too keen. the support and extra power the wraps give is unreal!

so 220kg 1rm (5 plates) is the target same as my DL target, this may take some time to achieve though i think 200kg is achievable within a month or so.

then did leg presses up to 280kg for 5

SLDL 100kg x5 x 5

calf raises standing
80kg x 15 x 3

weighted abs stuff

180kg, 4 plates a side, VERY nice mate, good going.

You'll have to get a vid of the 200kg when you get it, would be great to see

recently yes!!! any reasonable fitting jeans are a nightmare to get in and out of.

luckily this lovely weather is a great excuse for some baggy shorts ahhhhhhhhhhhhh...

cut going well, abs are peaking through which is very pleasing to see!! havn't checked weight though.

here are some videos of todays shoulder session with some BTN jerks. quite pleased with these considering the restricted calories at the minute, hope to get up to about 120kg 1RM this year when i up calories again. will try a 110kg nxt week.

cheers mate, still getting used to that movement but enjoying the thrill of putting the weight overhead, need to improve my technique a bit though. gonna try and up that quite a bit if possible. i should point out that that was after a 5x5 of increasing the weight push press.

here is a pic of my gym, good gym!

also am off to see the wizard the wonderful wizard of osteopathology tomorow morning.

back has been quite uncomfortable of late in the lumbar region, i dont know whether to put this down to the weights, i have a feeling all the heavy DL'ing and squatting may have been the cause, so might be no DL or training all togehter tomoro after the treatment we'll wait and see.
