I assume you've got some kind of deload plan so you peak on Saturday bro?

I'm just going to do a few 75% effort trains this week and take Thursday and Friday off completely.

Yeah didn't go hard today. Gonna go in and do an upper back train tomorrow then pump up the arms on Wednesday then rest Thursday Friday as well.

So things haven't been going that well for me lol. Still sick, nose is blocked and voice is on the verge of being lost. Thankfully, my appetite has not been affected and my weight remains the same. Drinking a lot of water to compensate.

To make matters worse, at work today I banged my knee, right on the edge of the knee cap on metal and now I can't even bend it without considerable pain. It is painful to walk too. Hopefully it's just bruised and it will come right by Friday.

Haven't trained since Monday and don't plan to this week.

Weighed in at 83.4kgs. Scales at home read 86kgs in the morning so scales at comp are obviously calibrated differently. Same scales as two months ago though and last time I was 80.6 so a 2.8kg gain.

19 years old

RAW plus

Squat

230kg Good lift

240kg Good lift (12.5kg PB)

250kg No lift

Bench

120kg Good lift

125kg Good lift (5kg PB)

127.5kg No lift

Deadlift

200kg Good lift

2nd and 3rd attempt pass

Total 565kgs (12.5kg PB)

Pretty happy with my result. Goal was to hit 250/135/235 for a 620 total. Back was a bit uncomfortable on the drive up so I knew it was going to be pretty niggly. Fortunately didn't affect me too much on the squats and I managed to get a pretty clean 240kgs.

Elbows and shoulders got battered from the squats though and could definitely feel it warming up on the bench. 110kg for a single was disgustingly slow, a lot harder than two weeks ago when I repped it for 7 reps. Opener of 120 wasn't too bad and I managed to get a slimy 125 in for my second attempt.

Warming up on the deads, I knew I was in trouble as even with 100kgs my back was shooting with pain. Initially I was intending to open with 220kgs. On my last warmup with 200kgs, I couldn't even get it off the floor due to the pain. So I dropped my opening attempt to 200kgs and got that without much difficulty although it did hurt a bit. Passed on my second and third attempts as I didn't want to hurt my back any further.

Just went really light today, still had a good pump and hit the target muscles pretty good. Lots of volume so still did quite a bit of work. Probably do light work until the end of this week and next week as well to let my CNS recover a bit.

I think all 24 hour fitness gyms are the same 70% cardio equipment 30% weights.

Usually don't have barbell equipment.

Your pull-ups improving?

 

They only had 2 barbells and one power cage with no bench presses. Dumbbells only went up to 40kgs too.

Pullups: Not really but considering I've gained 13kgs in the last 7 months and doing the same number of pullups, I guess I am getting stronger.
