mobsterone Posted October 21, 2008 Author Share Posted October 21, 2008 Cheers Andy. There were problems but are ok for now. Tuesday pm Busy in the am and not feeling like training then by the afternoon I was up for it so... Seated BB Press 50-kilos x 8 reps, 80-kilos x 6 reps, 110-kilos x 1 (cool but tough!), dropped to 100-kilos and did 3 r/p reps. Not too bad considering the usual difference between machine and freeweight poundages in the past. Target is 120-kilos before xmas for 4 x 1 reps. DB Curls 10-kilos @ x 8 reps, 17-kilos @ x 8 reps, 35-kilos* @ x 3 x 6 loose reps *could not find a pair of 32.5-kilo bells, this also made my elbows ache a little. TPD stack x 8 reps, plus 20-kilos x 8 reps, plus 50-kilos x 2 x 8 reps (held back due to elbows) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mobsterone Posted October 22, 2008 Author Share Posted October 22, 2008 Wednesday am Lat pulldowns usual set up 80-kilos x 8 reps, 120-kilos x 8 reps, 165-kilos x 6, 5 and then (cos they were so damned hard) dropped to 160-kilos x 5 reps (sill tough). I was going to do pinch then but called it quits for a come back and have a go later session. Wednesday pm Tried working to 80+ kilos over set up weight but was having, so it seemed, another off day. So dropped back down and instead of having another run at the top weight decided to do a killer volume session. 2HP @ 44mm equ (22.2-kilos approx) x 6 reps, plus 30-kilos x 3 reps, plus 60-kilos x 1 rep, plus 70-kilos x 1 rep, plus 80-kilos x 0 reps, dropped to plus 75-kilos x 1 rep, back to 80-kilos and got 1/2 rep, 1 rep and another 1/2 rep. Dropped back to plus 75-kilos and set myself a 20 singles with 97 (approx) target. 1,1,1,1,2.5 (was trying for 3 reps) 1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1, 1, 1, 1/2, 0 reps So just missed the 20 x 1 with 97-kilos. I still need to see if I can set it to 46mm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobsterone Posted October 23, 2008 Author Share Posted October 23, 2008 Thursday am CG Bench - max 60-kilos x 8 reps 100-kilos x 6 reps 140-kilos x 1 rep 167.5-kilos x 3 of 4 attempts. All super tough and 2 and 3 were a little sloppy. But I have until 20.12.08 to hit my target so I'll stay with 167.5-kilos for a while. Thursday lunch Clue: do not blast pinch to death one day and expect massive gripper closes the next. Reason: Gripper work Usual warm-ups L/H: BBGM x VVN, x 1 easy, CoC 3 x 2 x 1 reps, Paul's RB300 x 0, BBE x N, back to Paul's RB300 x 6 x VVN reps (some better than last time) R/H: HG350 x 1, CoC 3.5 x 1, BBSE x 1. Then 'easy' 4 x easy rep, Then 4.01 rated 4 x 5 x VVN (no closes), my RB300 x 1, my RB330 x 1 and then 1 more attempt to VVN with the 4.01 rated 4. My RB 300 and 330 felt strangely soft/pillowly after the close. Hard on the sweep I closed both and then strangely easy/soft as they opened.
