[nipple-flip]

back on the grind. first day back after a long trip and getting covid

very weak today. 180kg for 3 reps on DL was a lot

knee rehab is going well but the knee is very very tired after a lot of lower body work. somewhat concerned about how light i took all the squatty stuff and the knee still bothered me

 

[Crimson]

Reached the goal, I’m actually 89,8 kg Yesterday must’ve been extra food in my stomach.

 

[Ali]

Felt quite weak and achy after being out all day. I've also gone down a size on my belt so it's not quite tight enough for squats

 

[Ali]

Hopefully will have flat bench back up to 120kg 5×5 by the end of the month.
I'm going to have an upper body day based on bench and dips and another on overhead press and pressups with my legs raised.

 

[Ali]

Abandoned my overhead press day and just trained what I wanted to, a good session still

 

[Ali]

Switched back to squats and more strength based training for the lower body.
Felt quite awkward moving back to a wider stance with a flat heel but the reps moved fast and I should soon be well above 200kg for a 1rm.

 

[Ali]

Upper body workout before my arms get too tired cleaning

 

[Ali]

Fun strength work.
My extra chest work with the stretch at the bottom has been yielding some good gains, getting a classic era chest now.
No way to build significant size without years of progressive overload.
