    Gym with TR Jnr
    Leg press, weighted jump squats, hamstring curls, leg extensions (single leg) calf raises, knee raises then 5 mins on a momentum treadmill (suuuuucked) 5 mins on air bike (suuucked too)

    Started off doing single leg curls, but my left hammy didnt like it too much...so may need to look at doing low weight high reps and stretching it more.

                Leg day today, with both TR Jnrs, although older Jnr did his own thing, luckily cos I couldn't keep up with his numbers.

                Back squats, single leg-press, weighted lunges, hamstring curls, single leg extensions (low weight high reps, core then finished on the air bike

                Lunges suck, alot.

                  Weighted lunges are good. I like the feeling of failure after doing them rather than unweighted ones.....mainly cos it happens way sooner.

                    @MN5 was only a 10kg bag, but already can feel legs will not be happy with me tomorrow.

                    The older of my boys was doing them with a 10kg med ball extended up with one arm, that looked an even more evil version.

                      I do a few reps with a couple of 40kg plates.....I don’t like high reps of anything !

                          Seated DB press, seated DB flies, Deadlifts, shoulder cable exercise.

                          Unsure of proper name, but did the core exercise where you hold the weight on a hip and raise it over head to other hip and so on

                          Did higher number of sets per exercise this week.

                            TR Jnr along today
                            seated wide-grip rows, lat pull downs, deads (TR Jnr wanted to do them, so I stayed reasonably low in weight and did higher reps) seated close grip rows, hyper-extensions, 5 mins interval work on air-bike (last 3 20 sec work were at 75-80 RPM - felt like I had just finished a leg workout when I got off)

                              didnt get to the gym on the weekend, but went with TR Jnr this afternoon.

                              Squats (did one set @110 on the bar - def feel I could go a decent bit heavier, but not keen just yet)
                              then did one where you have your feet under some pads and then another pad 80% the way up your calf, and you 'sit' and rise up
                              seated leg press (single leg)
                              single leg extension (went heavy on these ones - assume all the work on my bad knee has paid off over the years cos it feels stronger)
                              single leg curls (light, high reps)
                              calf raises/press (on the seated leg press)

                                Standing overhead barbell press, lateral side raises, seated DB press, standing DB curls, decline side to side sit ups-supersetted with mountain climbers.

                                Was gonna do triceps, but they were already burning.

                                Did 6 sets, with 2 lighter ones, then set 3 and 4 were close to max weight for 3-4 reps.

                                While I was there, there was a dude doing his ab workout, holy fuck! Decline med-ball sit ups, hanging toes to bar, wipers, planks as well as some other stuff I dont know names of...is a due probably 50, not big and not really ripped, but in great shape

                                      Workout with TR Jnr today.

                                      bench press (I did 80 on the bar x 4, which I'm pretty happy with) then seated decline press (on a machine of sorts) supersetted with press ups, cable flies, abs, then 5 mins on the air bike.

                                      This was after a couple of beers, a glass of bubbly, a vodka jelly shot one of the ladies at work made and a big lunch 😪

                                        Workout with TR Jnr today.

                                        bench press (I did 80 on the bar x 4, which I'm pretty happy with) then seated decline press (on a machine of sorts) supersetted with press ups, cable flies, abs, then 5 mins on the air bike.

                                        This was after a couple of beers, a glass of bubbly, a vodka jelly shot one of the ladies at work made and a big lunch 😪

                                        Not keen to go for more ? I've seen your push up form on FB, whilst it's not always a direct comparison you'd nail heaps more than that surely.

                                        I'm doing weighted push ups with a couple of 20kg plates alternating with close grip ones with time under tension. The change is working well, great fun and definitely feeling the burn nicely.
