Short handy session reasons for which will become clear.

16kg 'bells
x 20

30kg 'bells
3 x 15

Standing BTN Press
50kg
3 x 8

Plate Front Raises

Sin é

POA=

Took it handy today as im becomming reaquainted with my old friend Smolov tomorrow...

I must go have a wander around my logs to see what assistance template i used the last time.

Reckon i'll take the same starting max again and see what happens... i'd like to get that 140+ bench back for my own peace of mind more than anything else.

Some langer asked me to spot him on DB Curls today.. i nearly shat myself!!

MRI results should be out tomorrow i'll keep ye updated... (if anyone is still bothering to read this crock a **** anymore that is)

No Boozing during Smolov i'm firmly of the opinion i can get the same results again if i stop the beer again as i did last time.

I can haz Large??

Week 1 (SETSxREPSxWEIGHT)
Mon - 6x6x70%
Wed - 7x5x75%
Fri - 8x4x80%
Sat - 10x3x85%
Week 2
Mon - 6x6x70%+10-20 lbs (bigger increase for bigger lift like squats)
Wed - 7x5x75%+10-20 lbs
Fri - 8x4x80%+10-20 lbs
Sat - 10x3x85%+10-20 lbs
Week 3
Mon - 6x6x70%+15-25 lbs
Wed - 7x5x75%+15-25 lbs
Fri - 8x4x80%+15-25 lbs
Sat - 10x3x85%+15-25 lbs

i'm considering using 130 as my max............. 125 makes the percentages look a bit light, i spuppose i could always man up go test my max tommorrow

I'm thinking about risking 135kg for this cycle....

maaaaaaybe... i'm not sure if i can handle it but i;m assuming an increased training frequency added to muscle memory will allow me to adjust quicker..
