thanks sir but bear in mind done fresh,just to see where i was. In saying that i did a bit of rowing the night before but thats low intensity . Form was breaking down. Possibly could of added 10 kgs and gone harder but it ceases to be a bentover row,also my double overhand is not strong so probably a limiting factor as well.
I thought i trained quite lazily tbh,i tried to 1 arm row with the ez curl and couldnt grip it with my left hand with 46 kgs so gave up. I did pump the tyre out,pretty easy,first time doing it and its good. I actually got this notion i should do it as a max effort first up exercise and do as many as i can next time,for a laugh. Theres a scrum machine frame there too. Squats tommorrow to make up for it

front squat belt and sleeves up to 138x1,depth was not great tho and thats something to work on but i havent front squatted that sorta weight for nearly 10 yrs and have more in the tank,just gotta build my confidence under it,then i did 2 inch deficit deads beltless with a pause at approx where the floor would be. Up to 170x2. This is hard to firstly maintain position and control where you wanna pause,then did back work.
