Hi Chris. I had a look on Ebay but couldnt find any, then forgot about it. Day one is meant to be Pulldowns, but i will have to substitute pull ups for them. Pull ups/chins twice per week will do me the world of good anyway! Colin

Hi Steve, that seems like a massive jump between DB weights.It would be enough of a jump in lbs.

Tonight:
Deadlift 80x5
Bench Shoulder Grip 55x8
Pull Up Wide Grip 10 strict reps in 2 mins 25 secs
Press 40 x 10

Dick Conner doesnt specify reps. So i will do 5s in the 3 lifts,and Day one press, and use higher reps in the other lifts. Bodyweight is 78. First week over. Thanks,Colin.

Indeed. I've done it before but would prefer smaller jumps

[peter yates]

Hi Steve, no chance of the gym getting some in between weight DBs? While you may be able to handle the jump how do the lesser mortals go on. Most gyms go up in 2.5 kg jumps as far as i know.
Regards,Peter.
