-heavy gravity day? nah someone put black 25kg plates in the 20kg zone in the squat rack. Didn’t pick it until after first 5’s set… oops. Didn’t notice racking them on the barbell either… getting stronger maybe? haha - lesson learnt!
-BW 68.5kg this am, dropped nearly 4kg since peak a few months back. Suprised by that. Less food during chest infection (no appetite). Still pushing the lifts though so here’s hoping there’s mainly fat/water loss in those numbers. Strength down slightly but no biggie, to be expected with some weight loss.
-cheers @TM79 getting the work done amongst chaos of work as xmas approaches. Conditioning brutal but it’s gotta be done!

Congrats on that OHP PR! I usually don’t get more than one grindy rep on that lift. Maybe two. Glad you got the lawn mowed and gutters cleaned.

Thanks @burien_top_team was suprised I had that in me after this week. Just lock the core and glutes and get to it… circa 66% BW for 7reps… reads better than 45kg…
@throwawayfitness appreciate the following as always. That 500lbx5 lift & vid of your squat… crazy good there!
Thanks @TM79 , spring means lots of growth here, and the gutters get ignored a bit too often at home!

Nice PR on those OHPs! Those are always tough to come by.

That wouldn’t be tolerated at the gym I go to, all plate go back and colours are not mixed.

-simple deload week, that 110kg went up nicely too
-thanks @shaneinga will be interesting to see how the ‘simple’ volume and basic accessory work goes towards building this up a little more too!
-we have a couple of half squat racks at my gym @simo74 - those have colour coded plates… alas everywhere else is just black plates

-sunday off, finished painting. Whole house is now fully painted. It’s taken so long to finish the painting, it’s probably time to touch up other rooms we renovated years ago…
-kept TM the same for cycle 2, as I work back into 531.
-felt the DL effort a few hours later… all good.
-tag @Serge_A_Storms as you’re back on the forums - great to see
