Mini Forklift Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Won't be too long before you are bashing out 150kg dude, damn you are making some great progress. How is your week going so far, you busy? Bats all okay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegan_rossco Posted February 20, 2013 Author Share Posted February 20, 2013 Ello jim all good except I managed to roll my ankle yesterday playing footy in the sunshine.. I figuired it would be unwise to proceed with my heavy squat day and just rest it up until max testing. How are you man? I'll pop by your training log shortly, I haven't been very active on the forum recently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mini Forklift Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Shit man, that's no good. Rest up, maybe get some ice on it and do that a few times a day until it starts to come right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegan_rossco Posted February 21, 2013 Author Share Posted February 21, 2013 Drunken update from me:Ankle is feeling fine today! Went to a HxC/metal gig tonight, lots of great bands as well as some drama and my friend smashing the mirror in the toilets... But still a great night! Benching and ohping tomorrow and its my last heavy workout of this cycle.I'm considering going for hypertrophy training now though but ill see how I feel about the whole thing after I've tested all my maxes! Hope everyones doing well, will speak to everyone tomorrow!Peace out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegan_rossco Posted February 23, 2013 Author Share Posted February 23, 2013 Ankle gave me hell at work today and its put me in a bit of a slump.. I'll continue to deload next week and since I've missed bench ohps and squats I'll throw in some extra reps for good meausre but keep it on deload weight.Still testing my maxes the week after and I'll try and film them all too. I may not be too active on the forum until then, I just need some xbox and beer therapy to cheer myself up. Hope everyones doing well and I'll be back soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mini Forklift Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Great work with the DL PB, bloody great stuff !!! Can't seem to get your video link to work, won't play for some reason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegan_rossco Posted February 28, 2013 Author Share Posted February 28, 2013 Ah bugger! I'll try uploading it again or something, I'm squatting today for pbs at lunch time at college lol, don't think I'll be allowed to film but I'll ask permission ahha. Going for 115Kg to make sure I can still do it, then 120 and see how that goes , I would test it from home but my "squatstands" are likely to crumble under that weight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felt terrible, looked terrible but its still a new record I probably could have done a little bit more but was advised by the trainer spotting me not to continue :/ my back feels a bit crap now too eurgh.Stretch/cool downAm currently playing with the animals at college.. Bench max testing tomorrow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mini Forklift Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Must be some new secret superfood that nobody knows about. Bat food !!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegan_rossco Posted March 1, 2013 Author Share Posted March 1, 2013 Haha hey guys! It must be something I ate although being a bit pessimistic here, the DL was a 25kg increase but it took months! The squat was only a 12Kg increase and that took even longer :/ maybe I shouldn't be so hard on myself eh?Looking at a few new ideas for training, I wanna give higher reps a go! I've also decided to take my eating as seriously as my lifting, I ordered some creatine Lglutamine soya protein and brown rice protein, I'm going shopping at the weekend and buying loadssss of stuff! I've got a big list and some ideas of what I'll need to eat in a given day.I used a calorie calculator and apparently I need 3600 calories per day for muscle growth, now is it just me or is that not that much? I'm not too good with nutrition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
