Thanks OJAy, well if you in it for bodybuilding your certainly doing something right judging by your pics!
I'm aiming for about 50/50 for strength and boyduilding. Although I don't wish to get massive, probably around the 15st mark then hopefully working on imroving my bodyweight to strength ratio!

For some reason I had a lot more strength on 45 deg leg press than usual 
Squats: 1 x 10 60kg, 1 x 6 100kg, 1 x 6 110kg, 2 x 6 112.5kg
45 deg leg press: 1 x 6 220kg, 2 x 6 225kg, 1 x 7 240kg!!
quad extensions: 1 x 8 133kg, 2 x 8 140kg
DB OH press: 1 x 8 20kg, 1 x 6 32.5kg!! 1 x 4 32.5kg, 1 x 6 30kg, 1 x 5 30kg - I think I'm going to be on 32.5kg for quite sometime before I manage to hit 4 x 6
BB shrugs: 1 x 8 100kg, 1 x 6 130kg, 2 x 6 140kg - form suffered on 140k, back down to 130k next week.
lateral raises: 1 x 6 12.5kg - thought id add a set of these just to kill the delts off.

Thanks guys
just t - impressive lifts you got there mate! mighty jealous
O Jay, you'll get there eventually! your goals and aspirations are different to mine though I think.
Im REALLY happy with how my deadlift has progressed as 130k was my best in may and then didnt lift until late august!
I'm less happy with my bench though, which is very weak in comparrison

Having taken a week out to rest, I'm hoping for a good session tomorrow.
I'm swapping round my routine so I'll be training back tomorrow then chest / tri's on the following session and then finally legs and shoulders on the final session. Doing this gives my back more time to recover from deads in time for squats
Aims tomorrow are: 3 x 6 on 152.5kg deadlift. Hope to at least achive what I did on the previous back session with the other exercises.

Well I certainly surpassed my expectations of the deadlifts, however this was at the expense of the exercises that followed as I seemed to run out of energy  However I'm pleased as I expected to struggle after having the week of and during that week the diet wasn't very good at all.
Deadlifts: 1 x 6 80kg, 1 x 6 120kg, 1 x 6 152.5kg 1 x 6 155kg 1 x 6ish 160kg (Had to re-grip before 5th rep otherwise I'd have dropped the bar) however I'm going to count it so new PB!
WG chins: 1 x 6 +15kg, 1 x 6 10kg, 1 x 5 10kg 1 x 6 5kg - Bis seemed to take a beating from these and on the final set they were out of steam
DB rows: 2 x 6 42.5kg, 2 x 6 40kg,
EZ curls: 2 x 6 40kg, 1 x 6 42.5kg, 1 x 6 40kg
