Small session today but it was far from easy. My abs are in bits and I barely did anything. I'm slowly increasing the weight on SSB squats, I can see how small increases here will yield results in other lifts.

I found it very hard to get going today, normally I'me warm and ready by this point however I needed something extra today. I spent a good 30 minutes working on mobility and sorting out some niggles making my hips tight. It was miserable but felt much better after.

A1 Squat
70kg x 5 reps
120kg x 5 reps
140kg x 1 rep --Needed an extra increment today
160kg x 10 reps --Increased by 2 reps on last week
160kg x 5 reps --down 1 rep on last weeks volume, need to fix this morning forward.

A2 Band Planks
x 15 seconds
x 15 seconds
x 15 seconds --lol done at this point.

Back Extensions With Barbell Rowed to Chest (plus bands)
x 10 reps --I tried to video these as the description is a bit funky. However all I did was take a photo of the setup Roll-Eyes. The idea is to do back extensions (obviously) but also work on scapular retraction and maintaining tightness, hence the bar in the up position of a row. I always lose this tension on bench days so I'm adding in bit like this to see if it will make a difference. Oh and extra lower back work and all that.

--Reverse bands on
165kg x 15 reps --Damn near blacked out when I racked the bar. I had to lay on my back until the world came back into focus in a blissful nirvana of agony.
165kg x 15 reps

Well that was fun. I'm only up 5kg but today was a mixture of passing out and trying not to puke. Aren't reps fun.

Cheers mate, building up to where I want to be. Changing focus has helped to keep things fresh. I need to use that more often. There's a bit more fat still to go, love handles and tummy, but those are the only notable fat stores left. I'm not actively trying to cut but if it happens it's more than welcome. All I'm doing is putting my lunch and dinner calories into one tub and making sure it gets eaten. I then have a shake and some fruit. I then have a little wiggle room for a snack of some sort (or the kids leftovers). Simple as that. Initially I dropped a stone but now a few pounds have crept back on although that could actually be lean mass, well that's what I'm telling myself.

70kg x 5 reps

160kg x 8 reps --Much better form. I can get between my legs easier although I think so mobility is required. I'm happy with the adjustments and I'm getting the volume I need on Mondays. Therefore I can start to build the weight up now. I think a 3x3 with weekly increments until I start to see form breakdown. At that point I'll need to adjust.

If I'd realised that mid set then I'd have bashed out 20. next week I'll switch to 5 sets of 10. 15 takes too much out of me for more then 2 sets. I need to get this sorted, I think it's energy systems rather than muscular.
