Bodybuilding program lol. I only have a pair of 25 lb dumbbells so time under tension and shit.
Envious of your home gym man! Must be nice lifting in your backyard. That 120 kg x6 squat tho

You just gave me a shitload of back-reading lol that corona virus thread blew up eh
Bit of a sore subject that one. Definitely pissed off of psyching myself out and underperforming. Next time though.
Yeah, I’m very lucky to have a set up at home where I can train. I honestly don’t “need” to go to the gym ever again, but air conditioning and adequate light and stuff are always nice

Definitely looked like there was more in the tank. There’s always a next time tho! No safety pins/catcher probably added to why you didn’t push it as much as you could have.

Thanks @simo74! How’s life in the apocalypse? Your log is so popular I haven’t back read everything lol
Life is good mate. Normal life is a little upside down right now. Gym is closed so I am back in the neighbours gym. I am sharing home schooling the kids with the wife. That means three days a week I am at home in the mornings schooling then kids and trying to work and then I go to work around 3pm and work till late. It’s not ideal but it’s not really that hard. Kids stress me it a little at times but again it’s not the end of the world. How you coping ??

That sounds good man. Good for you that the neighbours have a home gym. No gains lost for you!
I’m good, thanks for asking. Me and the wife are both working from home so we are able to take care of the little one. She just turned 7months and is already a handful! Sleep is another story though, since our work ends at 12midnight, and the baby wakes up at 6am. So one of us has to get up and let the other sleep in late.
Training wise, I just do what I can. I got a total of 50 lbs in dumbbell weight so it’s just pump city lol. Also trying to eat clean and lean down.

Made some homemade almond butter. Not exactly the type of food when trying to lean down, but the missus loves it.

nice little session
Is it done like jump rope 30 sec 10 sec rest then ab wheel for 30 sec 10 sec rest jump rope 30 sec for 8 x 30 sec.
I would imagine that the first round would be easy for the first couple of minutes and from there it’s just miserabel. Good ab and condition circuit.

Thanks Mort. That’s correct, 30 sec jump rope 10 sec rest then ab movement for 30 sec then 10 sec rest and so on. Hope this gets me lean and not lose muscle while the gyms are closed.
