Have become jealous of all @I_Luc and his 4wding so am planning to head out to the high country for a little weekend fun.
You lucky son of a bitch! ![]()
I am jealous. Vic High Country is on my bucket list.
Closestt I am getting to any wheeling is a run down Goolwa Beach soon.
Maybe I’ll have to go down and do a run from Beachport to Robe, however my mates are all out of action, work etc and 1 just had a baby a few days back.
Sunday work out: pause squats: 5x5 @ 150kg

3x10 @ 60kg
Snatch grip DLs: 2x10 @ 140kg
Accessory:
Tricep extensions, face pulls, plate curls and lateral raises.
Notes:
So the gap between work outs and not having squatted in a while has left my lower half with some decent DOMs.
DLs were relatively easy but the pump was unreal. Glutes feel fucking PHENOMENAL lol
I’ve also come to the conclusion that as much as I missed the access to various equipment, I think I prefer my home gym.
I probably just need to Join a better gym, where you’re encouraged to lift heavy instead of wearing a heart rate monitor.
Wednesday work out: weight 88.9kg
Squats: 1 @ 160,170,180,190,200kg
2x10 @ 140kg
Ng pull ups: 5x5 @ BW
Accessory:
Easy bar curls and face pulls
Notes:
Haven’t logged in a while, have been getting in regular gym sessions though.
Not having things written down has made it hard for me to keep track of but over the last fortnight I’ve managed to squat 180kg+ on 4 different occasions with out severe DOMs or to much fatigue, so I’m taking that as a sign of improvement.
I was kind of expecting 200kg to feel heavier but it was no different than squatting 180kg really.
Also made a gym friend, even get to see videos of his PR sets lol
Haha he does have a better physique than me though.

NG pull ups: 5x6 @ BW

Snatch grip DLs: 3x5 @ 180kg
Pull ups:5x5 @ BW

1 @ 180,190kg

Squats were good, I’m sure I could pause 200kg but it’s a mental block.
The weight feels fine, maybe once I work it into regular rotation it’ll be a bit less daunting.
Nice work big fella

Just a quick one tonight, drove upto and back from Canberra over the weekend.
Would have started with squats but the pt was using the rack… From the other side of the gym, along with 4 other pieces of equipment…
OHP: 3x8 @ 65kg
2x10 @ 50kg
Good mornings: 20 @ 60kg, 15 @ 80,80kg
NG Pull ups: 5x5 @ BW
BORs: 10 @ 80,90,100,110,100,90,80kg
Notes:
No shoulder problems, might keep away from DB incline for a little longer though (just to be sure)
Tonight was probably the busiest I’ve seen the poor gym.
Had a guy sent up his Matt right next to the rack, literally had to walk all over the Matt to load the bar… Honestly did consider dumping the bar when he started planking.
Had another guy decide the best time to grab the spare bar from the holder in the rack was while I was mid set of good mornings.
I was facing a giant mirror, I could see him creep up behind me as I was Bending over.
Awkward for all involved.
The bugger then came back and tried to take the clips off my bar… caught him mid theft.
“Oh are you using these”

Bring a long weekend I think my recovery was better/wasn’t as tired going into the session.
Shoulder is still feeling fine which is a good sign.
