Some guy comes in the gym and starts talking to me about women in general and how lovely they look and how a man cannot live without a woman etc, we talked and then when I done the first set of the bench I slapped myself in the forehead, I put on too much on the bar, I thought it felt kinda heavy but silly old me just went through the motions
Deadlift night was exceptional, I thought I left my log book at home which was not good as I would of had no idea on what weight to lift. I had one last check in the car and lo and behold the log book stood out on the car seat, so glad I never left it at home I would of had to have done some kind of percentages if I had left it!
Bar went up sweet on all 7 reps of the Deadlift, I really am starting to feel strong and the chalk really helps with grip, It will be interesting to go for 150kg for reps in the next cycle. I had 5 on my mind so the extra two was icing on the cake.
Ahhhhhh how could I fcuking not forget the Press
Might have to get the technique right as when I was pressing I kept coming up on my toes so will have to analyze movement at the next attempt. I like the fact that my feet are touching I know it's a harder movement and I am of the thinking that this strictness will carry over to the Press and then sometime later I will start Push Pressing, so many decisions and so little time.
Nevertheless we carry on and fight each and every training day to get to the gym, not because we have to but because we must if we wish to get some stress out. Believe... I need to get stress out
Well that's it. Deload week is upon me once again.
Peace.
