The Wizard of Wolls: Follow the yellow brick gains

There was a member on here who IIRC who very strong for their size but completely snapped up their back picking up a 25kg plate it may have been Nightmare.
 
Yeah it was Nightmare. Think he very briefly returned but didn't fit back in to the community and never posted again.
 
Well last Saturday saw a decent arm session:

and Sunday saw a lighter load back workout. Actually added in some standing one arm cable rows which was interesting and quite a nice feeling.
 
An alright chest pump today, despite my bench press looking like I desperately need a spotter. I'm too young to die pinned by less than 100kg :p

Today's workout is sponsored by Steedie Inspiration Ltd "Why simply train, when you could torture yourself and hate yourself at the same time?!"

Back workout. Asked Tobes for something a bit different. He suggested Rack Pulls supersetted with Bent Over Rows. I don't suggest these. Ever.

The pump from the superset was simply astounding - especially in my forearms. Had to use straps for the last two sets of rack pulls as I just couldn't close my hands and lift :D

Did you miss me? :D

Half a litre of vodka on Friday night, not a great diet on Saturday, and Sunday was beautiful with a Maccy Ds (double cheese burger and chicken select with chips) plus a parmo for dinner.... So let's just say I really hadnt fuelled my body for training today :p I still have a dodgy headache, so wondering if I'm coming down with a bug.

So that gets my excuses out of the way....

Hahahaha I genuinely fear you're right :D would explain why my slightly older girlfriend spent the whole of Saturday in bed and being sick :p
 
Really doesn't look like much, but this leg session HURT :D trained with the missus, and she didn't much like the wobbly nature of split squats, but it was nice to do a squatting motion again for a change.
