Strong fail today 
Got almost to the gym and realised i'd forgotten some stuff i needed to have with me for afterwards, had to go home and get them cue losing close to half an hour of the already pushed for time session i was going to have...
Deadlifts 60kg 8 100kg 8 120kg 5 5 5 130kg 5 4 140kg 2 - Managed DOH on everything up to the last couple of reps on the 130 sets. Tried mixed and i just ****ing hate it. Feels like it puts me so off balance/center so i just strapped instead. I'd rather focus on keeping form than **** about with that for now.
Pullups +5kg 8 6 BW 6 5
Yep. Strong session
Goodbye gains.

Good enough session for the time take. Strong pulling - and great chins. Sometimes shorter intense sessions just work.
Oh and dat ass / legs!

Bro, sober as poss, that is ****ing pathetic - even I lift more than you right now.
Srsly though, props for actually going home to get what you needed to go to the gym.

Pretty happy with the pulling, especially as my back wasn't feeling too grand this morning for some reason! That's my old pb for 2 anyway, after more volume than i'm used to too.
Wasn't stuff for the gym, was for errands after
Down to london tomorrow, all kinds of nandos gains will be made.

Awesome. If they're anything like your shoulders, we're doomed!
I can honestly say they are no where near as snapped. So by a normal persons standards, snapped to ****.

My posterior chain feels well and truly raped, anything special i should do for helping it recover?

Whatever you do DON'T use a foam roller or Steedie will stab you in your sleep tonight.

Soft tissue work.
Days like today are why we go gym.
OHP barxlots 40kg 10 50kg 8 60kg 8
Clean and SP 60kg 5 5 5 - I need to be taught cleans properly in person. Couple of presses may have had a tiny push but barely.
DB Press 30kg 8 8 7
Facepulls 64kg 10 10 10
Side/front cable raise 14kg 12 12 12
Epic. Delts were pumped beyond belief, veins errywhere.
My weight fluctuations make it so hard to gauge progress but strength is going up and looking bigger so i'm taking it as good news. For example on monday i weighed 183.8lbs, today 187.4 No logic behind that.

Same everything!
I can understand being slightly low on monday as i had a bit of a screwed up weekend macros wise, but i should still have been around 185 as per the week before, which would still be a 2lb gain in 3 days
Who gives a ****, mirror is where it's at
