Here goes...The names Luke, I'm 23 and live in Preston. Been back in the gym for 4 weeks after a year long layoff (no injury just a lot of going on the piss!). My strength is about 20% down across the board which isn't too bad considering the time off. Todays session went as follows. Going off a dodgy memory. Squats 160 x 2 170 x 1 180 x 1 Log press (first time) 60 x 1, 1 70 x 1, x 1 75 x 1 80 x 1 60 x 8 Deadlift 200 x 3 220 x 1 Bench Press 102.5 x 8 110 x 3 115 x 2 Close grip bench 90 x 10 Chin ups Bw 3 x 5 Very good day.

Face pulls/curls/db extensions/lots of different db and cable raises done pretty much continuously for about half hour. Very light. Pulling 240 in my 4th week back in the gym leaves me feeling pretty content. My grip is feeling very weak atm and its always been a problem (little girl hands) I'm gonna try and train it directly at least once a week. Any suggestions would be appreciated. | ||

You can do them with and without chalk, just keep a record for each. Your grip will soon get better. You have to squeeze like a mother though lol Haha on it! I'll start these tomorrow. On a different grip related note I closed my CoC 2 with my right hand yesterday. Doesn't really carry over to anything but I like using them. | ||

his poor male ego must be crushed Member 883, 6251 posts SQ 290, BP 180, DL 420890.0 kgs @ 105kgs UnEq | Let's hope I can get the same results. 3 Board Bench 110 x 3 120 x 3 125 x 3 130 x 3 135 x 2 failed 3rd 140 x 1 Everything above 110 felt super heavy in my hands, cue lots of shaking. Need to get used to the heavier weights again. DB Press 42.5 x 6 45 x 6 50 x 4 45 x 5 One arm machine rows 60kg x 7 too heavy 40 2 x 10 Face Pulls 10p 3 x 10 Good session with Martin and co. Seeing him benching with 280 is f**king scary haha. | ||
