<p>Man, seems like a few of us are having those mid year twinges and niggles. That's the learning curve when you want to increase weight and intensity aye - a fine balance!</p>
-
<p>Yea seems that way doesnt it. Could be due to getting colder of just due to not really having a break since xmas. </p>

<p>Dang boy, that's some nice work on squats. Repping 150+ at your bodyweight is a mean as :good1:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Are your hammies pinging after squats and the SL deads? ha ha I wouldn't be surprised!</p> -
<p>Decided to roll back in to PHAT a week early. So 4 weeks of this before I go away for work and cut back on the training for a couple of weeks. Got some real niggles at the moment and this morning it took me ages to get the right elbow joint function ok. Even then, not that comfortable with the pressing actions so kept weights low.</p>

<p>Grrrrrrrr, beat me to it.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I still win though cos I'm heavier :knuppel:</p> -

<p>You will get there. Reckon I could do 30 unweighted</p>

<p> </p>
<p>Whoa ! Turn it up ! as said in the other thread I can do 16 unweighted at 104-105kg. I will definitely get to 20, any more is a bonus :good:</p> -
How much do you weight JK? <br>
30 is fucken much at any weight. <br><br>
We were having a 'off-road' running training with the rugby team and at the end stopped to do chins 3x max and the oldest guy in our team hit 34(his age) on the first set and then 20 twice I think. He weighs around 73-75kg. -

<p>Fine effort for sure but as Paeks mentioned definitely easier for those who are lighter. It's still "weight x reps" afterall.....</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This calculator only goes to 20 reps but I find it pretty accurate, a bloke doing 20 reps at 75kg is about the same as me or Paeks doing 5 reps at ( ahem ) 105kg or so......( fat fluffybunnies :whistle: )</p> -
