Incline Poliquin Flyes 22kg x 15 32kg x 12 rep pb 32kg x 10 32kg x 10 volume pb 32kg x 8 last week was brutally tough, breezed past that this week. Chest blows up like mad from these, they are literally the best chest movement I have ever done, they feel awesome. Incline Hammer Press 100kg x 12 80kg x 12 80kg x 10 + 4 + 3 rest pause Brutal after pre exhausting, so much weaker but the chest fatigues fast which is just what I need, started to develop a dull ache all over chest after second set of these while delts and tris felt fresh, liking this pre exhausting. Cable X Overs 45kg x 11 rep pb 45kg x 8 45kg x 8 + 8 partials Strength again massively up and reps were nice and controlled with a pause on the stretch, the blood flowing into chest was immense, felt very good indeed. Low Cable Standing Flye 25kg x 8 15kg x 15 15kg x 15 15kg x 15 Nice movement...seems to hit inner chest very nicely, lots of very good pain from these. Incline Bench Press 60kg x 12 80kg x 8 80kg x 8 Chest was just blitzed so could barely manage any weight but all the focus was on chest, delts and tris felt fresh but chest was destroyed, plan is working, will hopefully see some visual difference in a few weeks as I lean out more. Chest was shaking and stupidly pumped after these exercises, finished it off with some posing to really make it hurt. Machine Preacher Curls 60kg x 12 60kg x 8 50kg x 10 + 5 + 3 rest pause Quick bicep blitz, bad one holding up well this week and got some really nice pumps, veins starting to come through all over arms while training now again. DV Tricep Cable Extensions 17.5kg x 20 huge rep pb 17.5kg x 16 25kg x 8 + 3 + 1 rest pause Strength gone a little crazy on these, maintained the strict form but jumped from 12 to 20 reps on set 1...I thought I had misloaded but hadn't. Triceps burned like mad from these and were almost painful as they were so pumped. SSCV 25 mins Incline Treadmill Job done, average weight this week is again lower than last week and strength continues to go up along slowly with muscle size. Getting comments in the gym now about how different I am looking just 4 1/2 weeks in to my cut. All on point. Legs tomorrow...280kg x 3 SLDL then destroy quads, hams and calves before more cardio. | ||

Surprisingly though todays session went well, just tired.. Reverse Band Stiff Leg Deadlifts 140kg x 10 180kg x 5 220kg x 5 260kg x 3 300kg x 5 default pb 340kg x 1 default pb 260kg x 10 default pb Decided to mix things up a little this week and the bands worked well, hams and glutes were worked very very hard. 340kg moved well, should have doubled it tbh but plenty of room for progression. Very solid reps and I knew I had done them. High Bar Squats 60kg x 10 100kg x 5 140kg x 5 160kg x 2 180kg x 1 Very very out of practice and the bar sat so high and the closer stance felt very alien but all moved quite nicely despite fatigue from the heavy work beforehand. I must admit I enjoy them and they attack a glaring weakness. Close Stance Belt Squats 80kg x 12 rep pb 80kg x 12 80kg x 12 volume pb Reps up again on last week and moving well, had to dig a little deeper for the last set but got them done...quads pumped massively from these. Seated Leg Curls 75kg x 26 rep pb 75kg x 20 75kg x 16 volume pb Hamstrings felt tore to shreds after all these reps, the pump was so painful and all sets saw increases in reps. 60 degree Leg Extensions 80kg x 15 80kg x 13 80kg x 12 80kg x 10 superset with Seated Calf Raises 80kg x 5 rep pb 80kg x 5 80kg x 5 80kg x 6 rep pb and volume pb Had to superset to get the session finished as had my daughter with me and we needed to be done asap. The 60 degree leg extensions pump quads so much...the constant tension is brutal and feels very good indeed. Seated Calf Raises I increased by 10kg to get some lower rep work in, will stay at this weight nowand build to 10's, calves felt very worked that's for sure, if they grow though that's another thing lol. A fair whack f work banged out very quickly, 1 exercise to the next and back again until all sets done. Quick ab blitz which I am adding in as I lean out and a few vacuums to finish the weights. SSCV 25 mins incline treadmill Utter sweat fest today, dripping with sweat all the way through...i'm sure they appreciated that in Aldi when I called in after lol. And that was that, tired session but a strong and productive one too. Looking forward to a good sleep tonight then smash a big shoulder and arm session tomorrow. The weekend sees my doing my final assessments to gain my Level 2 Gym Instructor grade then we start Level 3 PT, sooner the better as I have some clients lined up and need the money. Vid... | ||

Legs are not a weakness..apart from calves but even they are slowly coming on...as I get leaner and waist comes in I will be able to assess better where my weaknesses lie...before I get on stage lolol. | ||

Strength well up, muscle still creeping on...absolute win at the moment! | ||

Likes tight rubber Member 2981, 11067 posts SQ 242.5, BP 192.5, DL 330765.0 kgs @ 92.9kgs UnEq | Barbell Strict Overhead Press Bar x 20 40kg x 10 60kg x 8 80kg x 5 90kg x 2 100kg x 1 105kg x 1 Push Press 120kg x 1 Back to Strict 80kg x 8 Overhead strength still there, not done barbell overhead in ages so all out of practice too but a comfy 105kg strict and a pretty easy 120kg push press too...though the 120 felt heavy on the clavicles but then that's down to a lack of skill practice. Shoulders are looking huge but training them very hard as I am very blocky due to my years of powerlifting/strongman so the wider I can make myself the better. Dumbbell Side laterals 24.5kg x 8 24.5kg x 8 24.5kg x 8 Upped the weight and reduced the reps, heavy and hard but keeping the thought on the side delts and moving with the elbows and a good contraction each rep. Delts really felt these. Side Lateral Cable Raise 15kg x 12 rep pb 10kg x 22 10kg x 20 Reduced weight slightly and repped more, side delts pumped and pumped, such a nice movement. Reverse Pec Dec 70kg x 13 rep pb 70kg x 12 70kg x 9 vol pb Rear delts got some nice contractions on and really felt these after. Machine Shoulder Press 120kg x 12 rep pb 130kg x 6 rep pb 120kg x 8 + 3 + 1 rest pause Strength rapidly increasing on these and the tension put on to the delt feels really good, delts fatiguing quickly by set 3. Side Lateral Cable Raise - 45 second rests 10kg x 26 10kg x 17 10kg x 15 10kg x 12 + 5 partials to complete muscular failure Brutal second time around after heavy pressing, reducing the rest periods made a huge difference, incredible burn and felt it all in side laterals, felt very very good. Close Grip Pulldowns 90kg x 8 90kg x 8 90kg x 8 + 3 + 2 rest pause Quick Lat blast to get a little more back work in, felt really good, slow controlled reps with a big stretch. One Arm Cable Curls 40kg x 12 rep pb 45kg x 8 rep pb Strength well up again on last week and decent reps, even the bad bicep playing ball. Cucifix Cable Curls 25kg a side x 20 27.5kg a side x 13 Biceps really filled up with blood from these, found a good angle for them and it worked well, will be doing again for sure. Rope Pressdown 30kg x 20 35kg x 18 40kg x 12 rep pb Made some adjustments in my set up and zero elbow pain and more stress on the tricep, much stronger too and I feel like I can make some progress with these now. SSCV 25 mins incline treadmill to finish proceedings off. Great session today, huge pumps and strength flowing. Got some planning to do now for my practical assessments tomorrow and revise for my A and P exam sunday, joy lol. Bodybuilding vid lol... | ||

Loads and loads of work. I'm not surprised you were a bit shaky after that. Also I've noticed you tend to wear a vest on bodybuilding Friday, when in Rome and all that. | ||
