I'm assuming this is club wrestling or is this university-affiliated? Either way nice log and that's my favorite sandbag exercise too.

the wrestling club was set up by some iranian guys who wanted to carry on there training from back home. its really rare to find a proper wrestling club in the uk. i have a background in bjj but now do wrestling instead. im learning freestyle and greco roman.
i still suck big time at it!

tonights training
still a little sore from all the body weight squats we did yesterday in wrestling practice
squats
4 x 6 170kg
1 x 4 190kg

good mornings 6 x 6 100kg (220lb)
inbetween each set i make sure to stretch out and work on touching my toes. i know its gay but ive learnt some pretty good stretches in yoga

theres guys on the flat bench so i do incline press
5 x 3 100kg
damn i suck at benching. maybe it comes from training on my own but its the number 1 exercise i always skip

i superset my dips and pullups
6 x 2 x 6
i do 6 dips followed by 6 pull ups
rest 30 seconds then repeat
i do this 6 times
my form is real sloppy on the last 2 sets
i suck
