    Chest and back today

    Incline DB press, bench press - went heavy on the db press, bit too heavy as I could barely get them up to press with no spotter 😅 did 4 reps

    Straight arm pull downs (think they call that?) These smashed my tris too, Close grip pull downs which I tried to go heavy on too.

    Then did some core and 10 mins cardio.

      Seated DB press, DB shrugs, upright rows (have to go light on these as my dodgy shoulder means I am uneven when I get to the top of the movement)
      EZ bar curls
      on the hyper extension machine/unit - I did obliques on them

        deads, narrow pull ups, wide grip pull downs, barbell rows.

        Did some light work on my hammies and finished with straight leg raises on the dip station.

        Pushed a bit on deads with 100 on bar, only did 4 reps as I had one of my wraps wrong and was slipping my grip, but felt I could push that boat much further.

          Leg day with TR Jnr

          Squats, with a focus on technique as I know if I wanna go heavier I need to sort it; single leg press, weighted lunges (these dont get any easier) leg curls (up with both legs, down with one) calf raises, leg extensions, hyper extensions, 5 mins interval stuff on air bike.

            Shoulders today.

            Standing BB press, then super sets of seated DB flies and front barbell raise then onto some biceps with standing DB curl and finished with super sets of mountain climbers/plank.

            Love the pump shoulders give, probably more visible than any other muscles, and strong shoulders make other muscles around them look better 😆

              Back today

              Seated rows, straight arm and bar push downs, pull downs, deads, hyper extensions, super sets of russian twist and planks, finished with interval on air bike for 5 mins, instead of 20 sec work 10 rest, did opposite but went 85-90rpm in the work.

                    I’m sure there’s a middle ground ( he said hopefully )

                      incline DB press - super setted with push ups...I guess I gotta be doing something right when I struggle to do 5 push ups in my super set!
                      Cable flies, side wall balls, incline side to side crunches, cycling side to side knee raises, 5 mins on the rower

                            Chest - bench press today, stoked I did 80kg on the bar 3 times, reckon if I had a spotter I could have done 2 more, super sets of push ups/incline DB press.
                            Some more targeted shoulders stuff.
                            Supersetted hyperextension/spiderman planks, then incline crunches
                            Then a run/walk on the treadmill.

                              back and core last night:
                              Pull ups, bent over barbell rows (Underhand grip) deads, supersets - hyper extension/mountain climbers, straight leg raises

                              Felt wrecked after that last night!!

                                legs today

                                started with squats, didnt go heavy today, not entirely happy with my technique, often when i go heavy I find myself pushing with more weight on the balls of my feet

                                Then did single leg squats (weighted) super seted with squats on a balance board

                                Super set of seated leg press/calf raises, then hammies/straight leg raises/mountain climbers

                                Finished with 5 mins on air bike, did 10 sec work/20 sec rest but went flat out for the 10, man I am unfit!

                                  Shoulders today

                                  Started with standing barbell press, pretty happy as did 4 @ 40kg on the bar
                                  Supersets: DB flies with front DB raise, didnt go heavy but these were hard work!
                                  Did some targetted shoulder stuff for my not 100% shoulder.
                                  Did some core super sets

                                      Back

                                      super sets: wide pull ups/hammer pull ups (weight assisted)
                                      Bent over barbell rows/rear shrugs
                                      Deads
                                      Hyperextensions/mountain climbers/side crunches on hyperextension bench - both sides

                                      Core felt suitably wrecked after that

                                      5 mins on air bike.
