Part 3: The Garage Chronicles
Speaking of the garage, I took a couple pics last night. I've added a shelf of legends, which I will be hanging bands from soon. Chains are still planned.

Needs more mirrors.

Nice ab roller 
P.S: You said couple of pics...I see one pic.
P.P.S: Where is the bro-down invite? I need to curl in a squat rack without fear of being castrated

They are 2 pics...
Bro down shall be arranged. Just need to get into the swing of training and make some decent progress. I'm away for 2 weeks in June on a cruise, although I have access to a gym on board to do various bits. DBSS on a ship during rough seas, stability gains.

Stupid filtering our end no doubt.I'd basically fall over instantly, can't stand up on two legs well, let alone one, on a ship, that's moving

Paused Bench Press
BARxLots x2
60x8
80x4
100x2
110x1
125x5 - good speed.
127.5x5 - much better than last week, 5th rep was slow.
127.5x5 - caught the catcher on the 3rd rep, but I powered through it. Good set and good progress over week 1 numbers (120x5, 125x5, 127.5x5). Will need to restructure my sets next week to hit 130x5.
Normal Bench Press
100x8
115x8 - +5kg over last week, tough set.
115x6f - 7th failed, which isn't surprising.
Dips
30x8 - triceps were trashed from previous 115 sets.
45x8 - still managed +5kg over last week, bloody hard work.
45x8 - good night sweet triceps.
CGBP
80x8 - triceps were finished going into GGBP.
80x8 - stuck at 80 instead of the 90 I did last week, power was gone.
80x8 - 8th was close to failure.
Diamond Press-ups
12, 13, 13f - lol triceps.

OAKG is working great for recovery. Not a single chest or tricep DOMS was felt from that day.

u are 1 ******* cheeky **** mate i swear i am goin 2 wreck u i swear on my mums life and i no u are scared lil ***** gettin your mates to send me messages saying dont meet up coz u r sum big ******* with muscles lol ****** sad mate
Dude - your rep workouts (i.e. no 'heavies') are just beyond my comprehension (same for ice/Dom/FF/etc.).
No DOMS from that session?
That would have crushed me like a bug! 
Interesting to hear about OAKG, however - same for me.
I can only assume that because I am recovering like a beast while sleeping I am making all kinds of gains.

Can someone explain why the 250g bags are £8, yet the 500g bags are £33 dafudge?!

The 250g bags are part of their big up to 50% off sale they have on at the moment (disclaimer, not sure if this is still on!)
Paused Deadlift
70x8 (RDL)
100x3
120x3
150x2 - looked good.
170x3 - felt slow and looked OK.
170x3 - things weren't firing well, too much hip raise.
Deadlift
200x4 - haven't done normal deadlifts in a while, just wanted to do some at a decent weight. Power was good, form was my usual style. It got me thinking, maybe I am setting up too low, which is why my hip raise action is more pronounced. It certainly doesn't feel wrong. Or it could be that setting up low allows me to get that initial momentum to move the weight. Either way I don't know if it's something I should fix or embrace.
Didn't go mad with the reps, need keep some in the tank for paused squats.
