These crippled me last week after a week off them with the Rona. Hoping that’s not a thing this week. Still added 0.5kg, so may still hurt alot. Bring it on.
10 more burpees in the cool down. Much harder than earlier. Haha.
Struggled for time today. But not in a bad way. Great daughter/dad day was had.
Squeezed in a set of 15 burpees this morning before we went out.
Squeezed in a quick weights session before dinner.

Quick splash in the pool then dinner down the pub with the little miss to round out a great day.
Thanks mate. A couple changes with a new block starting. Dealods are for pussies, so just straight into it.
Truth be told i just didnt need it. I semi-deloaded my deadlift only.
The squats were done with 3 minutes rest. The stiffies, just 2 minutes. Superset completed with no rest between exercises. Deadset was huffing and puffing the entire session. Considered hari kari during the burpees. Jumped in the pool instead.
Yeah it’s moving ok actually at the moment. Rpe 7-8 only yesterday. Still a little down on power, I should be able to get 12 or so with that weight ideally. Week 1 again though, 15 rep target was hit easily so jump 5kg next week. Will be past previous block finish in no time.
Good plan to do a reset. You need to remember that you did have rona mate so there could be some minor lasting effects for a little while. Better to finish a session strong with more in the tank and build from there. Well that is what you would tell me anyway
Wanted to finish with burpees…yeah nah. Perhaps later with the jump rope.
Have started adding jump rope stuff every couple of days usually after the burpees. A good way to sort of add a bit more conditioning without adding more volume to my Triceps lol.
Squats were really good, 5rep increase accross the sets. Add 5kg next week.
RDL’s will hurt tomorrow. 4 extra reps there too. Add 2.5kg next week.
Leg extensions burned like hell. 5kg heavier this week, same reps achieved…another 5kg next week.
Chinups I stop the first set one rep earlier to try and increase density accross the sets. It worked, with a total of 3 reps added this week, 15% increase in volume…no weight increase next week, keep pushing.
