-Didn't really plan either of these PB's, just felt good, so I went for it, both we smokes easily. Last set at 150 was brutal, if I had planned properly I could have easily done it for 5x5...at last a bit of progress.

-I had the most bizarre tricep muscle spasm after squatting, basically just painfully tensed up on its own volition. Looking in the mirror I initially thought I had pulled/torn it, however after a few mins of stretching it went away, weird shit.

Thanks guys, I should note, this was a cluster set, so in actuality it was 2,3,3,3, still 11 reps tho. Hopefully I can get a couple of weeks of consistent squatting/pulling & then I'll go for a 5RM at 205.
 
Thanks, Kid, but pls allow me to discredit it somehow ;)

Nice work mate. Good deadlift volume. Going for a curry at the Mogul next week - remember that from your Camberley days?

How could I forget! Used to slave away at the garage in Bagshot for around 4 quid an hour. I actually made it back for the day last year, almost wouldn't recognize the town centre.

Good work in here, will be popping in on the regular.

Cheers bro, us Kilogram lifters have to stick together. You'll notice a lot of my training sessions are very brief with little assistance, not out of choice :mad: but I make
