Tuesday
As per if I train double hard on legs the day before then it's that little bit harder to kick ass. And my first 4 plate a side squat in a long time made it hard. Upped a half kilo and got it done anyway.
Two Hand Pinch
Same set/rep set up as before (around 80-seconds total). Equ (27.7kg) x 20 reps, 57.7-kilos x 20 reps, 88.45-kilos x 20 (4 cluster sets of 5 reps - usual short rest between).

Tuesday
My usual 'oh my god I could stay in bed all day' Monday night / Tuesday morning. Snack at 3am followed by a late for me breakfast (did 30 mins paint undercoating of the bathroom walls beforehand) turned into a GOOD pinch session.
Two Hand Pinch
Same set/rep set up as before (around 80-seconds total). Equ (27.7kg) x 20 reps, 57.7-kilos x 20 reps, 90.2kg-kilos x 20 (3 cluster sets of 7, 7 and 6) reps - usual short rest between.
Now I'll work on the time. I'll have this record in the next 2-3 weeks max.

Iso Low Rows
to 120-kilos x 8 reps (all she'll hold)
Adjustable Thick Handle work
to 131.25-kilos x 2 x 1 and then 1 x 2 reps RH and almost 1 x 2 LH (just missed lock out on the 2nd rep)
