i find it very disturbing that I was just about to say the same thing...

Inspector Coptoor · 21-02-2011 01:03AM

yeah, that'll be the plan i guess.
benching, rolling tricep extensions, db power cleans, anything upperbody focussed i can do on a bench.

i couldnt go 10 days without training.

Ill just have to get on with it and go from low conditioning into medium conditioning and then try to push into a higher level in a few weeks.
Ill do 120kg for 12 in 10 next time at the end of a strength session.
