aj_rock Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 You smack yourself AJ, why? Haha Lachy, i've done one, maybe when i get to double digits you can be impressed.Quit hittin yourself, quit hittin yourself...@katscratch: thanks for making me look that up. o.O Should we ever meet Pat, I'm not sure I can look you in the eye now... Quote Why must I put a name on the foods I choose to eat and how I choose to eat them? Rather than tell people that I eat according to someone else's arbitrary rules, I'd rather just tell them, I eat healthy. And no, my diet does not have a name.My daily battle log! Link to comment

Pat G Posted August 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Friday 31 Aug 2012. squats: 3x5x100kg. High barred it. ZOMG, what a difference in terms of muscle recruitment, quads burning, also sloppy form bit of a good morning on they way back up, plus having to go AtG to get the bounce.Bench: 10x20, 10x40, 5x60, 2x5x90kg. Wanted to row more today, time constraints and all that. Rows: 10x20, 10x40, 2x5x60kg, 2x5x67.5kg. Overhand untill the very last 2 sets.Dips: 3x5 Quote "Strength is the cup.

Lachy Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Was that meant to be beast mode above? Anyway, nicely done, man your bench is sky-rocketing! Quote Battle Log - Facebook Link to comment
Pat G Posted August 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 My bench has stuck at 90kgs for the past 2 weeks, slightly frustrating, but fixing form issues may get me there next wednesday. Cheers for the proof read too. Quote "Strength is the cup. The bigger the cup, the more you can put in" - JDanger Link to comment
Lachy Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 So it has, my bad 90KG is just too impressive to me, so it seems like it must be going up. Looking back you always hit the first 2 sets, then number 3 puts up the barrier. Try dropsets when that happens perhaps? Once you hit failure, jump up, knock a bunch of weight of either side, get back under and go to (near)failure again, practically zero rest except the time it takes you knock say 10 - 20KG off each side. Get your body used to carrying on past that point. Quote Battle Log - Facebook Link to comment
katscratch Posted September 1, 2012 Report Share Posted September 1, 2012 Sorry, AJ....At least Cherry Ripe to me means a yummy Cadbury treat and nothing perverted!Looking forward to reading your form tweaks. And watching you smash 90kg like it's a pizza box. Quote Link to comment

Pat G Posted September 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 I don't know how much father i can progress each session on the Deadlift, i'm not really doing 2x5 warmup sets anymore, ones twos and threes till i get to working weight.
