Muzza's Training Log/Bulk

[Muzza1875]

Just a point to note, the main exercises on (A)GVT should be compound exercises (i.e. deads, squats, bench, BORs, OHP etc...) using machines/non-free weights are for the subsidiary exercises.

Excellent progress and work though

Cheers mate, I'll limit gvt to just bench,squats and shoulder press and bent over rows (I'd die if I had to do 10x10 dead lifts) And base routine around them with machine exercises etc.

@methingyx So scrap shoulder shrugs aye? I didn't really feel much in my shoulder's when doing them( only recently started doing them) no matter how I did them I was always feeling it in my forearms before my shoulder's got tired/failed.
Haha yeap I feel stupid doing them

You're meant (!) to feel it in your traps. A much better alternative from a shoulder health perspective is the face pull or heavy snatch pulls, but I wouldn't suggest the latter to somebody without proper coaching.

Biceps and triceps this morning, lots of close grip barbell bench presses, skull crushers, triceps pull down and bro curls.

I decided I wanted to do squats though when I first got into gym.
Smashed pb I got 5 x 5 130kg and felt relatively easy then smashed out another 5 reps so dead chuffed.
Gonna aim for 135kg x 5 next heavy day and go for 1 rep max but still carrying on with gvt on leg days.
Also aiming for 5 x 5 400kg leg press so something to aim towards.
