Thanks man. Becoming less of a fatty is also helping my conditioning

Strong front squats. Nice work keeping on top of the extra sessions too.

[LtL]

Thanks J. The extra sessions are good fun and if nothing else they make me think about my weak points as they are usually sore

Was that a work gym lunch session?

[LtL]

Yeah. I'm working around the idiots and getting some good stuff done. Will try to get two more sessions done this week.

Good that you keep getting the extra sessions in Al!

Now my conditioning is up I can handle a lot more work. I feel like I need to hit these extra sessions to make me feel like I'm getting enough in. Big change from me just doing three sessions per week and barely having energy for assistance a year ago when Mini had just arrived and stolen any chance of more than 4 hours sleep per night

I know the feeling, Ive cut down my sleep from 8+h to 4-6 hours the last 6 months (4 small kids...) but somehow Ive got used to it now and still can train almost as much as I want. Dead tired most days though

Great session tonight felt strong and energetic which bearing in mind Mini has woken me up at around 6am for the past week and I was starving. Still getting leaner, my work trousers barely fit me any more. Scale is moving down slowly so should be right where I need to be come the end of November.

Strong triceps focused work tonight. Lots of volume and bench moved pretty well for the high tension and narrow grip. Was also trying to stop the bar just above my chest and turn it around with triceps and lats. Form and set-up felt strong. Good times. Followed it up with some heavier stuff and then lots of volume. Overall a good session. Extra sessions seem to be paying dividends as set assistance PBs for both lat and triceps isolations. One step closer.
