| Got my bag ready and went to the gym. Realised my chalk was in my other bag, so had to see what I could do sans chalk. Deads Up to 185kg for a single 195kg x 2, failed third because grip. The reps themselves were difficult, but should have managed to grind out a third if I could have gripped the bar. Using the women's bar as per usual. Maybe it's time I started using the thicker, stiffer bar again as I am weakest off the floor Bent over rows 135 x 5, not too much bother, but no chalk so no grip Lat pulldowns 3 sets from dead hang, up to 95kg x 8. Grip fine Seated rows 3 sets to stack plus 10kg for 6. Grip fine. Leg ext - 3 sets. Felt a weird pain in the VMO, probably as a result of not having done much in the way of legs for ages Leg press - 3 sets Hammer curls, alternating l/r 20kg x 12 working my way up the rack to 30kg for a less than perfect set of 6. Tiny bit of stretching. Need to foam roll at home. | |||

| Damn. Although a lot of people didn't "love" the guy, he was certainly one of the bigger names on here and it won't be the same without him. Wishing his friends and family my deepest condolences. | |||
