Nice log Chris and good training. I enjoyed the Ed C deadlift routine and although not doing exactly the same now I am still using the general scheme.

Cheers for the comments guys.
I have just contacted James with regard to providing a nutrition plan for me. I think my main weakness is lack of planning and no inbuilt satity recogniiton! I am hoping that having a plan laid out and specific makes it easier for me to stick to.
Looking at having a gentle squat tonight to see how the groin feels.
Cheers

Ok so update from earlier...

1 x 10 x 70kg
1 x 10 x 90kg

Took the squats really light tonight as I still have this dull ache on the left side of my groin. The problem is that it hasn't abated in two-three weeks so I am just trying to carry on training light.
Thought I would have a crack with my shirt tonight - only the 3-4th time I have ever bothered to try it on. I am left with some lovely cuts and bruises on my shoulders and arms. I also managed to blow a load of blood vessels in my forehead and around the eyes so I now look like I am suffering with a contagious disease. Still, all good fun...
Food
10.00 - Protein and oats in water
13.00 - Tin tuna, little oil and three slices of Soya & Linseed Bread
PrWO - 6 oatcakes
PPWO - Large packet of sushi, healty living rice and king prawns and a quarter chicken!!
