Welcome! Just checked out your log…you are strong as shit.

Feeling like I want to go to the gym today but going to have a picnic with the ladyfriend’s family instead, at least there will be meat and wine. 2 beautiful things.

Squats today
2x5 60kg
1x3 80kg
1x1 100kg
1x1 120kg flew up
1x1 130kg leaned a little forward, meh
1x1 150kg again forward lean, wtf!
1x0 160kg got out of the hole not much further, fucking chicken pox killing my progress, almost back though.
1x5 60kg
1x2 100kg
1x2 105kg
1x2 110kg
1x2 115kg
1x2 120kg
1x2 125kg
1x2 130kg
1x1 135kg
1x1 140kg
1x1 145kg best lift of the day, weight was back and I got up pretty quickly even though exhausted.
1x0 150kg almost got it but whatever, dont mind failing at the end of my set.

2x10 60kg RDL

EDIT: Forgot FS: 2x5 60kg, 1x2 100kg, 1x1 120kg. Not much work but felt good.
Seated calf raises

Leg press, trying to hit glutes a little.

Curls for the gurls, lots of volume low weight.

In and out session today, just did bench.

BP
60kg 1x10, 1x5
90kg 1x3
110kg 2x2
120kg 2x2
125kg 1x2
130kg 1x1
135kg 1x1
60kg 1x10 CG
60kg 3x5 Extra wide grip.

I moved my grip back out today and my bench is so much better off the chest, the lockout sucks now though. I need to find a happy medium. Hard to progress when I am still doubting my style.

Pullz

3x5 60kg 1 set sumo, i rarely use sumo but it felt a shit ton better and i was getting into position easier sooo.
2x3 100kg sumo as are the rest of the lfits
1x3 130kg
3x1 160kg flew up!
3x1 170kg last one with straps, grip was failing. Sumo feels a ton better, off the ground still kind of sucks but the limited ROM is awesome and my hips stay down so my back doesn’t round. Think this is a permanent move.

Been doing a 3 day on 1 day off for the last few weeks.

Going Back, Chest, Legs using the powerlifting lifts as the main basis but not necessarily doing them every time.
For example, I will sometimes use cleans as my main back workout (instead of deads), then do pullups, lat pulldowns rows etc. As well as biceps

Chest is a variation of bench every time and tri work, going to start incorporating OHP in

Legs are usually squats, front or back, sometimes both, with SLDL and some leg press along with calves.

Been trying to do cardio a few times a week as well.

Working great so far, getting muscle and conditioning back as well as getting leaner.

So, the plan is to gradually lean down. I am going to try and lose half a kilo a week (at least) for the next 20 weeks. I started this last monday, and weighed 115.8 to start off with so my final weight should be around 105 when all is said and done.

Gotta get that diet in check

Lifted 6 times this week and played bball once. See where my weight is at tomorrow morning, think I’ll be down right around a half kilo.

114.8 down 1 kilo through one week
