-big pr’s set today, that 3 plate DL is there for the taking… soon…
-felt ok going in, more solid as weight increased.
-some of juniors’ chalk used today for first time on main lift, and joker. Extra reps for pr’s today showed (mental or chalk worked… who knows…?). Happy to take suggestions on chalk colour preference… haha Gym Sign next to DL platform says ‘liquid chalk only’… fk that. This makes no mess and wipe it down after in anycase.
-time to dominate the rest of the day.

Nice PR! LoL at the chalk. Liquid chalk isn’t bad. It will make you feel like Spider-Man. Stuff is sticky when you first put it on.

So much good work going on. Looks like the PR train is treating you well. I have never heard of liquid chalk??? Good on you for doing those pistol squats. My knees would never survive those. Keep it up brother. :+1:t2: :+1:t2:

-Blocks of 101 reps done with ample rest. Slept in but dragged myself to the gym for some movement.
-cheers @TM79 the pistol’s defo test mobility to the extreme, I’m good for 3x reps then a rest is required! PR’s very enjoyable, running 351 helps on that front too.

303 reps? I guess some folks like odd numbers. :thinking: :sweat_smile: That is a lot of reps nonetheless…
