    day 25

     

    squats

    60kg

    bench

    -

    barbell row

    45kg

    5-4-3-5-5

     

    was in serious beast mode with squats, dont know if its because i had a good stretch before or what but i sailed through, was amazing, but after last bench session i started to feel a pinch in my right shoulder and it came back today when i was benching the empty bar, i think i over pushed my self last time and ive annoyed my rotator cuff. so i didnt want to tempt fate so im leaving the bench be for a week or so whilst i strengthen my shoulders. rows were fine apart from i didnt manage to get contact between my abdomen and gar on a couple of reps, so let my ego take the hit instead of my form.

    day 24

     

    squats

    57.5kg

    press

    25kg

    deadlift

    95kg

     

    i think ive cracked it, press was finally fun, and i really powered that weight up, really suprised my self with deads, was a battle but did it, my grip started to fail on the last two reps, so that needs addressing.

     

    and sensai ross, forgive me for doubting you and myself

     

    not a single twinge in my knee either so a pretty damn good day, apart from the huge bruise growing just above my right knee from deads hahaha

    day 22

     

    squat

    55kg

    press

    22.5kg

    deadlift

    90kg

     

    still a slight twinge in myknee and back so im thinking of doing leg presses for a while to ease the stress as squatting is the only time they play up.

    presses are alot better than they used to be.

    deadlifts were a bitch but managed it, a little rounding on my lower back that i need to keep an eye on.

     

    on a plus not its my fortnightly weight in muscle mass is up .5kg fat mass is down 1.3kg.

    Day 21

     

    Squat

    52.5kg

    Bench

    45kg

    Row

    40kg

     

    Dialled awaits back a little to get back in the game, i saw a vid that said push your knees out when squatting, so I gave it a try and it's made the world of difference

    Bench was awesome, the last rep of the last three sets were he'll, I had to use every ounce of my being to complete but I bloody did it

    And Dialled back o therow as well because I was concentrating on rep number instead of form before and was getting sloppy

    All in all a bloody good session

    sqats

    50kg

    Press

    20kg

    Deadlift

    85kg

     

    deloaded on the squats to give my knee a break, was just nice to be back in the rack, starting presses from scratch with full concentration on form and it was a dream:) a hell of a lot simpler, and managed the deads, just haha starting to become a major challenge but the fact 100kg is so close is the driving force.

  6. hey ross i love questions ive got an appointment at 9 tomorrow morning. , im pretty sure its my meniscus cartilage. the knees been absolutely fine all day and most f yesterday to be honest, so if the doc gives me the all clear ill be back home in the rack Wednesday morning home sweet home. snows not too bad hers just icy as fuck, im desperate to get on my bike, i feel like a caged animal. hows it down your way?

    day 19

     

    squats

    0

    bench

    42.5kg

    barbell row

    40kg

     

    hopefully last day of no squats, ive had no problems with my knee all day, struggled towards the end of benching but soldiered on and stripped the rows back a bit because my form was becoming extremely sloppy so i took my time and concentrated more on what i was doing and not just banging the reps out.

  8. so my knee has felt amazing all day, if it carries on tomorow im going back into the squat rack , i think its a tear in the meniscus cartilage but ill get a second opinion from the professionals on tuesday.

    going to go right back to pressing with an empty bar on wednesday too so i can ironj out the bad form habits ive developed

    day 16

     

    sqats

    0kg

    Press

    25kg

    Deadlift

    80

     

    still no squats yet, deloaded on the press because i think im struggling because ive got in to some bad habits with form so cant progress the way i was doing them. was looking at some of mark rippetoes vids on you tube and tried some tips out today and by god was it easyer, i know i can already press 25kg but it was so much easyer this time and they powered upwards.

    deadlifts were still cool although a little challenging, i feel next session may be the first sticking point.
