Amazing work as always!!!

Thats the difference between people who go to gym, and the few people who are kings of the gym! Amazing dedication!!

You taking creatine, or was that lower back pump more from brutality? (Which I imagine it was).

Great effort LTL. How are those sumo RDLs coming along? Any issues at all with knees and or hips? I've never run them long term. (The sumo version that is)

I hate triaing alone, it just seams at times I push it a bit more when another person is there.

Keep up the good work brother.

No creatine, all brutality

Haven't done the SUMO RDL's for a while, just started cycling them back in. I'll let you know how they work for me.

Awesome session today. Felt good to be back under a heavy bar for the first time since holiday. Very pleased with the floor press PB. I made a big jump after the second set but I couldn't remember whether my previous best was 130 or 132.5 so I went big to be sure

The volume on this routine is still taking some getting used to but should give me some decent growth, especially in the triceps if the pump was anything to go by I love how they fail almost instantaneously. Repping the last set of pushdowns I thought I'd get 25. 21st rep' felt ok, 22nd the bar wouldn't move. Good times.

Now having a restful day visiting Mrs LtL's parents after spending yesterday with mine. Lovely weather here so gonna sit in the sun for a bit

Should be Max Effort Lower tomorrow, work permitting. Gonna be working some heavy weights Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Thanks guys. For some reason I always assume that these will be easier than regular bench... They're not
