well done on the hammy PB!
squats look good, keep a mental note if you can of the previous lifts if you dont use a notebook at the gym, saves you repeating a weight.

cheers IB going to stick to that weight  for the moment intill i get 15 full reps do you include the weight of the bar in your lifts when you squat, my legs are improving alot i think might put a pic up soon just of my legs need more sweep on the hams limited to han machines might add sldl in my routine more.

If the bar is made out of balsa wood then no... if its an olympic steel barbell weighs 20kg then yes

good lifting on the deads,  i wouldnt even dare try lift that, think my back would explode and my knees collapse!
