Cardiovascular weight lifting I believe.

Some kind of euro training hybrid

I think I've screwed my right leg, hurts around the knee when going up and down stairs, although walking straight isnt too bad. I just hope its a bad case of DOMS and nothing else as Squats are coming along nicely at the moment.

That sucks, depending on how painful it is probably just twinged something...sometimes my old knee issues spring up occasionally, just have to calm down for a few days

Front, just above the knee. Comes on worse if I rest it then attempt to start walking, so trying to keep active.. Just no stairs

Saw someone deadlift 290kg yesterday, the guy was a freak! Me on the on the other hand, more modest

100kg x 10
140kg x 5
190kg x 3 x 3
170kg x 5

 

[icecold]

lol

You're hardly "modest" pulling 190 for a triple at your bodyweight

Your PB was 200kg, right?

 

[Temi_D]

yeah it was 205kg , I attempted 210 last week but only got it a few inches off the floor.

 

[icecold]

If I remember the video, your form was quite pretty too.

Keep plugging away at the reps (with no bounce!) and you'll get that 210 soon enough.

Making progress on the squats.

Set 1 of 3.

 

[Syla5]

Squatting in my rack! Nice work man

 

[LiE]

Yea, I don't catch the bar on the walk out.
Thanks.

 

[Syla5]

Next you will be deadlifting from the bottom catchers...

 

[LiE]

Nah, don't need the height advantage

 

[Fallen god]

That euro training looks amazing, going to try that tomorrow

Good learn2press vid from the other week. Wish I had a mini-Rip in my gym bag to shout at me.

Will be hitting chest and tris tonight. Still short of breath and have no appetite so there's no way I'll be hitting >3k cals without resorting to ice cream.

Do it! I'm sure one of the supermarkets will have Ben and Jerrys on offer.
