nice one mike, get stuck in mate and if you give up , i'll be down there ....

...........to nick your free pass off you

Bet you could run down in no time at all mate! lol. was meaning to pass on my congrats on your weightloss over at sb, but it seems i have either upset the powers that be or im just a mong, tried every password combo that i use and emailed to no reply. Or maybe im just a mong and its not getting through

Only got to train last week and both were disasters, had a dicky back one day for some reason and benching at my mates house had to be cut short. So ill carry on as per from today.

BB Rows:10x60/62.5/70/70/60

Just a quick one to get the blood in the back and see how i felt. Was ok, felt bit rough due to the reps and the heat. I'll do back soon, try and hit something a bit better.

hello mate good luck with you quest!

At least not till the nxt time your in a /party pissed and loads of you mates want to arm wrestle the big guy that weight trains!!

"Play Stonehenge!"

Hey up buddy.

Are you still using empire fitness or did you just use your 10 day pass?

How did you find it?

Good to see you back in the game mate. Goals?

Allright Tone. At the moment want to get back into lifting weights consistently for a start! Training a couple of times a week now so thats sorted.Ive got a bit of knackered ankle since last November, find squatting to any depth quite painfull still so might just aim to hit the deads hard, and bench. was never the greatest squatter anyways. planning to start a routine similar to yours I reckon. No need to get clever at this point in time.

@Iain K
Normally turn decline any such offers, or at least get to the bar when the action starts. shoulder fine now though, lucky escape.

Hey up buddy.

How did you find it?

At the moment just used up my free pass like a true pikey

I really liked the gym, i am unsure about joining still. Its just a matter of logistics and price. I have to get two bus's over there which makes the total cost around £60 (gym+transport) where as the local gym is around 25notes & walking distance.But no where near as good! A right pickle i might join for a month to see if i could stick it out.

FIN.

Deads went better heaviest been in a while. pretty comfortable.

you cant argue wih a 200 dead mate , are you back in the saddle or struggling with getting back full on training ?

I was struggling, well still not managed a good spell yet, feeling confident though now. I cant train legs without quite some pain, due to a buggered ankle which put me out of anything physical for a while. walking for two weeks after i did it was a simple no go. so get pissed that i cant train properly. doing anything remotely like a normal squat leaves me in pain. the leg angle for deads is about as much as i can go, even now as typing theres a sort of pain/numb feeling in the area. pissing me right off, shall persevere tho.

thanks for popping in
