Evening all
Today was weight-in. I am now 233lbs - another 1lb off. Little disappointed it isn't greater, but guess that this way (i.e slowly) then I am more likely to hold onto the lean mass
GREAT training session tonight! Driving there didn't really feel that up for it - back was a little sore. But got there and when I got going it felt excellent, just got in the groove and stayed there.
Training - Squat
1 x 10 x Bar
1 x 10 x 75kg
1 x 5 x 115kg
1 x 5 x 135kg
1 x 3 x 155kg
1 x 3 x 175kg
1 x 2 x 185kg
1 x 1 x 195kg
1 x 1 x 205kg
1 x 1 x 210kg
1 x 1 x 220kg
1 x 1 x 235kg
This last one was the best in a long while! All the singles done with just a belt. Feel beat now - but a good feeling 
Food
8.00 - 10 egg whites scrambled, food doctor bagel
11.15 - wholewheat pasta, feta, sun-dried tomatoes, pesto
14.00 - 100g chicken, sweet potato
15.00 - Apple
