cheers pal, i was aiming to get to about 80kg on the rows so was buzzing last night, bloody hard work though after deadlifts, hence i only did static holds and not shrugs

rugby training,

fitness session but involved a lot of ballwork

it was up at the top of the field so loads of midgies and little leeches to contend with, i think i need some anti-midgie spray

i took some dig on my nose, mouth, ribs and arm, my arms still dead but my nose and everything else are ok

i didnt stay for the last 15-20 minutes which was tag reugby as i was gettign eaten alive and i was absoloutely fooked

good session

alright mate

i think chest gets hit during chins yeah, it's not meant to include chest exercises but it's unavoidable with chins/pulls in there
i usually do shrugs in place of the plate pinches
shrugs are not really meant to be in a strength based routine but it's took me years to get them to grow so i dont want to lose them, also figure big traps will be good for rugby

no spinning of the head though, there was a loud "fook me!!!" and flat fingers, to be honest i didnt think i would hit the 130kg (i struggled with about 110kg two weeks before) but after i had done them i thought i could have got a 134 or a 136 for about 4

but on the whole i'm happy

devo'd today

i can't train tonight as i well and truly buggered my shoulder/arm last night at rugby, i can't get my arm above shoulder height (if you imagine doing overhead presses with a dumbell i can only get my hands up to head height)

so there will be no chest and triceps session tonight, which means that i won't get a new pb that i was confident of

a night of tele for me

It's called injuries and get over it, welcome to my world.

winger of old would have powered through it and jacked himself up. Dave on the other hand takes the approach that skip a day and come back stronger, damn why didn't I take daves frame of thought.

hahaha don't worry dave of old learnt the hard way that rest is better, if i recall correctly two of the three times i have struggled with a bench press have been when injured

i've got about 70% movement now so im confident of some form of training either saturday or monday, possibly legs but at the moment i cant put a shirt on as my arm wont go back so i may have to re-think what session im going to do

the only reason i didnt think i had broken something was the fact that it went dead and there was no loud crack, if it wasnt healing and i couldnt get my arm past 45 degrees (i can just about now) id say it was my collar bone

im a bit confused though as i cant work out where the pain is

well big news for today was that i went to me mum and dads for me tea, my sister moved out on friday but her and her fella were round so i decided to pay a visit and get me some good old mum sunday tea

and the first thing my mum and sister asked was "have you been on a diet? where has your belly gone?"

which i suppose is a good thing however it means they thought i was fat before []

my chest has also all but disappeared as i knew it would, ive always had a wan* chest [:(]

Do you use your straps (I really hope you meant wraps.lol) on all of your sets on squats?

hahaha im a bit mongified after the gym, leg wraps yes

yeah i use them on all sets

my mother couldnt find out what i had/have but as a kid i was told to only wear boots and never do a lot of running or leg exercises (so i took up cross country running )

the confidence is not there at all :(

Your Military Press is impressive, man! 71.5k is better than my 60 by a long-shot!

Hope you're ok after your little problem with the squats!

Not sure if your nose is supposed to bleed at any point in a workout? Is that the new measure of intensity? LOL

dmcc

You'd be surprised mate - I've seen pics of powerlifters with blood all over their faces after a big lift.
