Alright, I'll give the lower weight higher reps a shot, thanks.
Yeah squats are good! Keep on thinking I'll hit a wall, but my legs seem to just keep on powering on! Quads are getting rock hard, and getting more definition. :)

An 'update' on my weight: Still been the same at about 166 lbs for the past 2 months. Don't really have an aim weight-wise atm, as my lifts are still getting better without bulking. But once I hit a wall, I'll slow bulk to 182 lbs.

Thanks! Really liking the change as well. I can remember what it felt like at the start of this log when I was all blubbery haha. Not going to that place ever again. :)

Only 2 sessions left before a 2 week break because I'm changing gym. :( I'll do what I can with a single 15kg dumbbell at home haha.
 
Well the reason why I didn't carry on the gym membership for one more month and overlap is that I'm trying to save a lot of money for this coming summer for travelling, so wanted to save that £18 instead of the 2 weeks gym. Tight I know haha (the reason why I'm changing gym is The Gym has a pre-open price for £10.99 a month, every little helps!). Another factor is that I'm starting new part-time work next week so wasn't sure on the timing of things.
 
Good session! (Apart from losing focus on the row/dips)

Squat
107.5kg - 5x5
67.5kg - 16, 16

Bench
70kg - 4, 5, 5, 5, 5
45kg - 14, 12
20kg - 20, 30

Row
90kg - 5, 4
70kg - 7, 7, 7, 12

Dips
BW - 16, 12, 12, 12

Bb Curl (Finally broke 30kg!)
32.5kg - 5x5
20kg - 10, 15

Got my leather skipping rope in the post today so started that up again. I don't remember it being so exhausting!

And finally invested in electronic scales so no more guessing my weight on the silly analogue ones!
 
The Gym opened up their East Croydon branch on Thursday so started back at that (2 weeks felt like ages!). Unfortunately it's not as well equipped as EasyGym and it's not as good quality. They've only got 1 squat rack, no bench racks and the dumbbells go up to 30kg. There are also not enough weight plates as if both the smith machine and squat rack is being used, there isn't enough plates for someone to do deadlifts or whatever as well. If it wasn't for the pre-open price (£10.99 a month) I would go back to EasyGym (and it'll only be for another 4 months), but providing I don't go at peak hours it's just about manageable, plus it has the benefit of being a 24/7 gym if I don't manage to get in during the day.
