Would have been better had you done it on International Chest Day

I'm basically pressing and deadlifting at the moment... that is pretty much it.

Missing leg day errday.

mrthingyx · 14 Apr 2017 at 22:12

Deadlifts.

DEADLIFT (3) 100-130-155-155-155-155
RDL-CLEAN SECOND PULL (5) 100-100-100-100(8)

mrthingyx · 18 Apr 2017 at 23:15

Finally... some squats.

BACK SQUAT (3) 60-80-100-100-100-100-100
BSS (10) BW-BW
SLDL (5) 100-100(2) Weird - my wrist started hurting on these, so had to stop. No, I have no idea why that would happen.

GSVBagpuss · 20 Apr 2017 at 08:58

Hip heals enough for squats and then does BSS

mrthingyx · 20 Apr 2017 at 13:02

BSS are quite "easy" because they allow a great freedom of ROM...

Not too clever doing them as a "welcome back" exercise, however.

mrthingyx · 24 Apr 2017 at 22:42

All the squatz0rs...

BACK SQUAT (3) 80-100-110(2)-115(1)-100-100-100-100-105-60(5)-60(5) Lots of relatively heavy volume...

That's some lovely volume :cool:

Legs were in pieces yesterday... the wife commented I was walking funny.

MoNkeE · 27 Apr 2017 at 08:41

I'm sure that's just her way of saying she's noticing your gains

GSVBagpuss · 29 Apr 2017 at 08:51

Dear god the volume! Showoff

Relatively.

It is a routine called "squat nemesis" developed by a self-proclaimed "iron samurai." It is actually meant to be run on a daily basis, but you can tell I am not there, yet. :eek:

Today's squatting...

BACK SQUAT (3) 60-80-100-110-120(2)-130(1)-100-105-110-115-65(5)-65(5)

And it will probably hurt tomorrow. Good thing there is a barbecue on the horizon, and I won't be grill-master. :cool:

mrthingyx · 29 Apr 2017 at 23:32

Strike 1: I almost fell over going up the stairs...

mrthingyx · 1 May 2017 at 17:51

Press day...

OHP (5) 40-50-55-60-45(10)-47.5(8)-50(6)-55(6)

No time for anything else!

mrthingyx · 3 May 2017 at 22:17

Couldn't face another hour of one of the new canon Star Wars books so decided to do some squats.

BACK SQUAT (3) 80-100-110-120
RDL (10) 60-60-70

A bit light on the RDLs, but it getting me nice and warm after such a long layoff...

mrthingyx · 6 May 2017 at 00:05

Cheeky late night session...

BARBELL ROW (12) 60-70-70
INVERTED ROW(10) BW-BW-BW
SAR(12) 25-25-25

Pump was strong, but back felt happy.

mrthingyx · 7 May 2017 at 22:06

Press work...

PUSH JERK (5) BAR-40-60
STRICT PRESS (5) 40-50-55-60-65(3)
STRICT PRESS (*) 45(12)-47.5(10)-50(8)-55(5)

Even my broceps were pumped... somehow.

GSVBagpuss · 12 May 2017 at 13:02

No squats though

No - just cable and machine work in the office gym, yesterday. Back'n'chest.

mrthingyx · 14 May 2017 at 00:08

So today was squats...

BACK SQUAT (3) 80-100-110-120-130(1)-100-100-102.5-105-70(5)-70(5)

It was too late to do anything else by that point, and I was fried from to heavy single (form went to pot)...
