I think the powers that be were trying to tell me something this week!

1 Inspiration started with reading Cookies post on training routines, I remembered back to the old days when me and the guys used to do 3x100reps on calf raises. We used to be shattered from this and would always spend around two days woulking bent legged, up on tip toes!

2 The next sign from above was in reading big petes journal. He said that he was set a chalenge to see how many reps he could complete whilst benching 100kg

3 When I walked into the office at the gym this evening divine light struck me a third time when Harold told me he had been using Jay Cuttlers rest pause technique for his chest, accumulating nearly 100 reps in the process!

Three times now I had been told to rep my way to heaven and back so I could do nothing but get on with it so as to not defy the all and powerful lord

I'm currently as clean as a pair of Justin Timberlakes pants so I thought it would be a good measure of my true abilities. So, I started off by stepping up to the plate with NU and see what I can do.....Warmed up with 60kg for two sets of 20 reps and then loaded the bar with 100kg.....

I usually rep 140kg flat for around 8 so I was confident I would get lots out with 100kg....Not a fu**ing chance ladies and gents. I used Cookies method of lowering the bar to my chin/neck and only managed 25 full reps! This was poor by my estimations so I rested 10 secs and pushed another.....5 pathetic reps!

Off came the plates and I was down to 60kg, 10reps (bugger) 5 seconds, another 10(wake up you useless piece of excrement)

Down to 40kg, got 25 completed, 10 more seconds and completed the final 25.....My goodness I was spent! It was like being thirteen years old again after just discovering Men Only magazine

On to the incline press for a triple drop set 80kg 10reps, 40kg 10reps and 20kg another 10reps.

Swiftly on to the incline dumbells for another triple drop. My chest was begging me for a rest so I allowed myself a warm up on 20kg dumbells for 10reps or so. Then the real set....50kg dumbells for 6, 35kg for 8, 20kg for 10, rest then another 6 or so.

I was now sporting a chest that would make Katie Price (Jordan )jealous! If I had time I would have taken five minutes to play with them, instead i...

Moved onto the cable cross overs and reped with no drops for 100 with maybe three or four 5 second pauses.

Goodness gracious, golly gosh I'm a hero folks, autographs later LOL

In all seriousness, that was fun people. Try it yourself or something simillar, you will be supprised at how low your poundages will drop!
