Day 3
Low bar 3x120/ 3x140/ 5x160
High bar 6x5x95
Calf raises (10 minutes) 40kg. 64 reps.
Leg extension (10 minutes) 50kg. 100 reps.

I dunno if I can do calf raises. I was having to cut the ROM to ensure I didn't get cramps. Not really a long term solution. I was hoping 5x160 was surpassing my old strength but I don't think it quite is yet. I was still really happy that it was so easy though.

Day 3
Low bar 2x125 2x145 3x170
High bar 1x3x85. 1x2x100. 2x1x110. 1x120. 1x130.

Leg extensions (10 minutes) 55kg 80 reps.

Today was supposed to be 3x165 but I did 5x160 quite easily the week previous. I thought I must be in for more than that and so I gave it a crack. Wasn't disappointed.

Day 4
Bench 3x4x80 4x3x80
DB press (10 minutes) 20kg 42 reps
Flye machine (10 minutes) 45kg 56 reps
Cable curls (10 minutes) 25kg 48 reps
Lying LTE (10 minutes) 30kg 29 reps

Switched out pull ups as my elbow pain has flared up. I'm also having some tightness in my shoulders so I threw in sets on the reverse flye machine to hopefully help.

Week 3
Day 1
Sumo 1x170/195/220 (back to five plates. Whoot!)
Head supported rows 4x6x65
Chin ups (10 minutes) 10kg 13 reps.
Pull throughs (10 minutes.) Had to use another machine here so I'm not sure what the weight was as it only has numbers. 52 reps.

I must stop with the dive bomb and yank that I'm doing all the time. I nearly missed the rep from knocking the bar out of position. After getting it back though the pull was easy.

Day 3
Squat 1x145 1x165 1x185
High bar 6x5x100
Calf raises (10 minutes) 80kg 48 reps
Leg extensions (10 minutes) 60kg 56 reps

Super happy with 185. These top singles are moving better than they ever have.

Day 4

Bench 4x3x85 2x2x85
Seated DB press (8 minutes) 22kg 25 reps
Chin ups (8 minutes) 10kg 12 reps
Super set cable curls and push downs 5x8

Strapped for time so I had to cut time on sets and improvise.

[BootyBeech]

Not the best...

Sumo 3x155 3x175 5x195(3)
Lat pull downs (loads of sets)
Reverse pec deck (loads of sets)

I ate, a lot, and went straight to the gym. I was so bloated that a simple stretch made me feel pukey. I failed even at 175. I stopped and had to do it again. Proper failed this all because of the puking sensation and for no other reason. Now I'll take most of the week off to rest my tweaked hip and I'll go back at it and it'll fly up.

[BootyBeech]

A week after injuring my hip.

Cycle 3
Week 1
Day 1
Sumo 3x180/ 5x195
Good mornings 4x8x50
Lat pull down machine 3x8x80
Reverse flyes 3x10x115(lbs)
Narrow grip lat pull downs 3x6x75

Stopped the cluster reps for now. Just until my back/hip feels fully healed. Putting straps on worked really well. I could focus on the whole pull rather than my hands hurting and so on. I'll still do singles without them I think though.

Day 2
Bench 7x5x75
Good mornings 4x8x50
Lat pull down machine 4x8x80
Close grip lat pull downs 4x6x75
Rear delt flyes 4x8x115

[BootyBeech]

Day 3
Squat 3x150/ 3x170. Was supposed to 5. 3x165.
High bar 1x3x87.5
1x2x102.5
2x1x112.5
1x122.5
1x132.5
Leg extensions 6x10x62.5

[BootyBeech]

Really wasn't in it there. I think I went in with a low carb and calorie count and I just had no go at all. 170 flu a lot slower than it looked so I feel like I could have ended up getting the 5. Balls!
