Re: training Log Forum 2019
Hi Pete, I do a LOT of warming up on an iso press and then the bar (both for 20 or so reps) before pressing. Cold and not ready I'd still struggle to put it straight above my head without pain. That's left only as before. The right is fine

Slight throat infection thing today upon waking. Hmm
SSB Squat (leg press in use)
to 170-kilos x 4 reps
Leg Press
to 680-kilos x 8 reps (other sets 15 reps)
Seated Leg Curls
to stack plus 5.5p x 20 reps
Leg Ext
to stack x 20 reps
Bwt: 296lbs.

Re: training Log Forum 2019
Thanks Steve, yes those high reps really get the blood flowing and warm the whole area.Glad you are able to keep going with them.I have tried to get some younger guys to do them before they actually need to, but no one really listens.
Regards,Peter.

Tuesday
As per if I train double hard on legs the day before then it's that little bit harder to kick ass. 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, 87.95-kilos x 20 (4 cluster sets of 5 reps - usual short rest between). Not far from 90-kilos now.

Thursday
A good days training. I'm thinking of rotating grip exercises on Thursdays.
Close Grip Bench Press
to 140-kilos x 1 rep, then 2 x 4 reps*
Lat Pulldowns (hard machine)
wide bar to stack x 12 reps
Rolling Thunder Handle
Stiff as all hell. I've not touched it in a year
to 150-kilos* (plus the handle) x 3 x 1 reps left hand (failed one) and 4 right hand.
* = nice
Bwt: 296lbs
