Keep me honest...TAKE TWO

[boostinggtir]

Nice work, your consistently getting stronger.

[gazza]

cheers boosting,makes a difference when i can get in and train consistantly and get the odd boot up the backside :pfft:

[gazza]

had an extra rest day as i was very busy on my days off and pretty tired as a result. still floating just over 90kg so all good there.

took some pics the other day debating whether to post them as they were taken on one of the days where i felt crap..... we shall see.

back and calves

deads

1x15 120kg( this is an easy loosener but might have to put it up slightly)

2x8 160kg,170kg(8 reps)

1x6 210kg(4 reps) \:D/

db rows

1x12 50kg(12 reps)

1x8 60kg(8 reps)

1x6 65kg( 5 fail)

lat pulldowns

3x10 90kg,90kg,100kg(8 fail)

close grip cable rows

3x8 105kg,110kg,115kg(8 fail)

seated calf raise

3x15 75kg,75kg,75kg

extra rest paid dividends, pleased with deads, broke off the ground easy on the first rep and grip was still holding on the 4th, felt my form going though so bailed out of the rest of the set, could definately have gotten an ugly 5th rep.

should mention that i use straps on deads due to a permanent hand injury and i don't use a weight belt. :oops:

didn't think the gym had any 65kg dumbells but found some dusty ones(next one up would've been 70kg) under the rack.

strong deads you should really invest in a belt though `!

thanks. i do have one but i only use it to hang weights from when i do dips.

last time i wore a belt on deads i was doing a light weight and pulled/tweaked something so since then haven't bothered. lower back seems to be strong though.

if i ever try a one rep max i'll probably use one :shifty:

[gazza]

forearms are killing me and my back is officially munted \:D/ not looking forward to getting up tomorrow either

[boostinggtir]

Nothing wrong with a rest day sometimes though! Nice work on ya 210kg deads. How's the back?

hey how often are you deadlifting ?

and what does it mean when you say 1x6 210 5 reps ? is that 6 reps or 5 reps

1x6 is what it was meant to be, number in brackets is where i gave up or failed. in this case i probably had i more in me but thought better of it.

training 4 days on 2 days off so deads are first on back day which is usually day 1, everything gets done 2x every 10 days.

[gazza]

missed a training day and was a bit short of time today so a little bit of a mixture, nothing to write home about

hairy like a hobbits feet

need more depth imo, but size seems to be coming on fairly evenly all over.
