LtL's Training Log

[Fazc]

Good strong work mate despite the sleep schedule. Speed Benches looked snappy and under control.

[LtL]

Thanks man. They looked faster than they felt which is always good.

How's your eating been during this sleep deprivation period? That was always the hardest aspect for me when they were so young.

Apart from having a few beers on Friday I have been backloading to a t. It gives me better energy than eating carbs throughout the day. Well that combined with huge amounts of coffee

Not a bad session. Bad night's sleep again last night and back is strained from Mini being in the bed all night. Took ages to loosen up but was ok once I got going. Disappointed about the knee wraps debacle but I just need more practice. Should probably wrap myself as well so that I can control how much I can feel my feet.

All of the speed work was snappy and although it wasn't light, it wasn't too heavy either. Got a few days off now and hopefully some sleep and extra sessions before max effort bench on Thursday. Got a week out of the shirt and doing floor press against chains. Got a session with Faz lined up soon as well so need to make sure I am not completely run down by then

Good work tonight man, it was fun torturing you with the wraps.

Train with Faz on ANY day except the 21st and I'm game (and the 24th/25th).

[BendtheBar]

Man points for just getting in and doing work. Hope you can get some sleep in tonight.

[Squatter]

Snappy would be an understatement Al. I think that is the best dynamic work I have ever seen in your log. Those Box squats were superb.

Big Pete is also looking spiffy!!

Yeah "thanks" for the wrap Unfortunately this one is confirmed for the 21st as it's the best weekend for Faz and I but at least you'll be snapping necks and doing other gridiron stuff

If I didn't train when I am tired, I wouldn't train. It builds mental strength as well. Got a decent 7 hours last night

Thanks Jim. Hoping that the box work translates well into free squat form next week.
