Time restraints mainly. It's a little better when I'm at my hometown gym, I have more time then. I don't always list everything I do either. For example, yesterday I busted out some hammer curls, a major part of anyone's training routine, but I didn't list them.

Damn Straaaaaat, butt! You should have just listen those, I'm always interested in people's bicep progression.

Notes
Was meant to be bench today but bench was being used and squat rack was free, so figured I'd get my squats in. Wasn't a great session and the 135kg reps were harder than they should have been, so didn't do the joker sets today,
