Deadlifts took a bit more out of me this week but the recovery between sets is speeding up thanks to the cardio. Plenty of strength left in the tank for the next two weeks :)

Bench felt a lot easier than last week even though last week was also easy, considering upping it by 15 next week now.

Going to be busy with work next week so decided to get everything done today. Squats and bench were both easy, and I'm confident I've got a lot more in the tank over the coming weeks and months, but the deadlifts were far harder probably because I was beginning to fatigue due to the weights beforehand.

On to a structured routine and heavy weights again :cool:
 
Summer Cruise

The Plan
Going to be playing football and tennis at least twice a week over the summer months so I've decided to lose some weight, hit the gym twice a week and stick to low to moderate rep compounds. Unfortunately that means the heavy weights will have to wait until I start my bulk in October and peak around March next year.

Very easy session although I haven't done any shoulder pressing for over 9 months and haven't used dumbbells for well over a year so my stabilisers have got a bit of catching up to do.

Might need to reassess the amount of sport I'm playing and the amount I'm eating at the moment because my energy levels completely died halfway through my deadlifts tonight and the squats weren't particularly easy either :o

Feel exhausted at the moment due to work, lack of sleep and a calorie deficit so this felt hard today.
