Nice new PR LtL, looks a great session to me. I guess the 30 minute walk to and from the gym is helping you shed a lb or two each week,

[ravimolasaria]

You obviously lift often enough to shatter PR'sLike Steve said, you likely had more in you, but you always seem to have more, if not now, the next time.

Are you taking in live any Olympic action like the weightlifting?

[LtL]

Loving the weightlifting. It's timed perfectly so I can watch the finals as I get home from work Now though it's time for beach volleyball

[Hazzard]

FIN

Good session tonight. Did front speed work tonight and damn it was hard. Had to drop the weight to keep the speed up. After 4 sets I only wanted to do 6, so I did 8 and then 2 more for good measure. All sets were horrible but form got better. Very hard on the upper quads and upper back.

Speed pulls went really well. Dipped a little lower at the start as per Steve's advice and it made the whole pull cleaner. Hopefully I'm onto something.

RDLs were brutal. Not least because I had Pete shouting at me the whole way through to keep my form tight and to slow the reps down. Very hard on the glutes, hams and back.

Finished with spread eagle sit-ups which are fast becoming a favourite.

First session on Volatile tonight. Need to work on dosage and timing but focus and pump were solid and no jitters. Feeling like I will sleep well too which will be a bonus over all other preWOs

Will do a little session at the work gym tomorrow and then dynamic bench at the weekend.

That all looks really good Al, I'll be looking to hit some Front Speed work at some point as well.

I'm assuming they were to a box right?
