Quality Lower session, took 220kg on deads for 4, the 5th defo could have been there but the lock out would have been rough but I feel it could have been done. First time have taken 220 x 4!
Personally if it was 50/50 sometimes it’s the wise choice to leave it and fight for it another day as now you will be confident it’ll be there next time .
If you took it today it might have taken so much from you and affected the rest of the session negatively. So sometimes it’s about leaving the dance floor at the right time ..[/quote]Quality Lower session, took 220kg on deads for 4, the 5th defo could have been there but the lock out would have been rough but I feel it could have been done.

Good upper session yesterday, kept the adjusted session as my elbow is a lot better but not 100% so thought I’d give it the extra session.
Met Lee Priest on Thursday at Zone Gym in North London. Decent seminar and an incredibly down to earth bloke.
Lower A today meaning Hack Squat

Fucking elite leg session. Took 230 x 3 on deads which I was massively happy with as I’ve never pulled anything above 225 before. Rest day tomorrow but I will be meeting Lee Priest so that’s cool.
The elbow also feels a lot better.

Adjusted my upper sessions temporarily to compensate for my dodgy right elbow and was able to get through today’s session just fine. Using free weight machines and cables seems to work well in comparison to BB and DBs when it comes to my press work. I’ve also temporarily deloaded on my arm work so I’m simply just using the elbow joint less as well as my tricep and bicep tendon as it’s where they joint the elbow is what was causing me discomfort. Hopefully it continues to get better. Lower B tomorrow which means deadlift day!

Good upper session today. My elbow is still a bit funny and it bit at me quite a bit as I racked off the barbell for bench. I’m going to take flat bench out and close grip bench as my elbow seems to be more comfortable with the likes of DBs and handles that are angled. Also seems that if I come just shy of a fully lock out, it also helps nurse the elbow as during the actual pressing it isn’t too bad at all.

Very good upper session yesterday and solid lower session today. Also done leg curls prior to back squat and it didn’t seem to mitigate the hack all too much.
Lifts are moving nicely. My joints of late seem to be getting agitated a bit more, my knees are feeling it a tad at times are my shoulders and elbows, especially my right shoulder joint and the right elbow. Nothing too major just an observation from feel of late but it hasn’t slows down progression it seems. However the right elbow feels like a touch of tennis elbow so I might invest in thin elbow sleeves just to cushion it that bit more and potentially adjust my pressing work if I need too.

Rest day today.
Solid Lower session yesterday, feeling strong on deadlifts and leg press.
Solid 210 x 6, 200 x 7 on deads. Intrigued to see where I can push them in what small amount of time I have left of this gaining phase.

Very very good upper B session. Pleased with the lifts. Switched up the shoulder movement to a high incline smith to see where I was at with that and it was easier to do at the time. Potentially thinking about moving it back into routine but we shall see.
Good session all in all. Lower B tomorrow which means Deadlifts!!!!

Quality Lower session at Muscleworks in Bethnal Green today, signed up permanently and will continue to train there.
Chilled one this evening and rest day tomorrow.

Had a decent upper session today. Had to train at a different gym due to weird times at the end of the year so I had to rejig some exercises and the selection but the bulk of it was there. Carried way too much fatigue in my shoulders into today’s session, hit a PR on a couple of the sets but not as many as I would have wanted. Gonna look back over the last couple of days and see where the issue lies and sort it out.
Also planning to move gyms entirely. Turns out I only live a half hour ride is from Muscleworks in Bethnal Green and as it’s a Bodybuilding gym I’m gonna give it and crack and hope it lives up to its reputation!
Lower tomorrow after work!

Very good upper session yesterday. Some nice progressions particularly on seated OH press where I took 85kg x 5.
Just got back to London from Essex. Will be heading to train lower shortly and it’s deadlift day which is still the king of all exercises.
Then I’m straight out this evening to twicks to watch quins vs tigers!

Also chose to back squat todya for the first time in weeks as my gym in Essex I go to doesn’t have a hack squat until next month. Wasn’t too shabby, managed to get up to 160kg for a couple of good decent reps with no wraps or belt so I’ll take that given that it’s far from the best movement for me.

Good lower session this morning and had a fair amount of food after. Not too long left of this gaining period that I’m in.
Rest day tomorrow then upper on Friday!
