    <p>Coping with man love but struggling get my head around it all.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>I think of it more this way, so our Scottish friend chins 174kg, which is his weight plus 72kg or another 70% of his body weight.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Wouldn't it be more comparable for me therefore to have to chin my weight plus another 70% of my body weight, ie another 56kg. So my comparable total weight would need to be 136kg.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Could I do one single chin up with 56kg strapped to me? maybe....</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>From an absolute strength perspective.....no fkn way!</p>

    <p>I've done 50kg, it was rather tough. Also did around 55kg but that was at the park with both sons hanging on and suspect the ROM might not have quite been perfect.</p>

    <p>Took it easy today and legs have not recovered well from Tuesdays efforts. Havent had DOMS like this for a long time and it will be due to not really having hit legs with a full workout for a while as it's just been squats and straight leg deads under the previous programme. Feeling it everywhere too - glutes, quads, hammies and calves (the worst!).</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>So today....</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>25mins cycle</p>
    <p>15mins rolling and mobility</p>
    <p>10mins abs</p>

    <p>Lat pulldowns (underhand grip) - 20x48kg, 15x54, 12x60, 10x66, 10x66</p>
    <p>1 arm machine rows - 20x50, 15x60, 10x70 then 10 more but both arms   X 2</p>
    <p>Straight arm pulldowns - 20x38kg, 15x44, 15x50, 12x56</p>
    <p>Seated DB press - 20x15kg/side, 15x17.5, 12x20, 12x22.5, 8x25 dropset --> 10x20 --> 10x15</p>

    <p>Pretty happy with the session as hadnt done any proper deads for a while. Gym was really quiet too so wasnt rushed at all. Did deads in socks and chucked the knee sleeves and squat shoes on once done.</p>

    <p>Yeah I dig shoulders big time these days. Used to be chest or arms, but I kind of cruise through that now. Perhaps it's because you can hammer the shoulders a bit more. A typical shoulder day for me is 6 different exercises which is unthinkable for any other muscle group (except maybe legs).</p>

    And arms.<br><br>
    But I usually go biceps and triceps on different days so I consider them separate entities 🙂

    Used to do Tri and bi with back and chest (or vice versa) then do a shoulders day, a legs day and then that left me with a day for arms on their own for Friday's but rearranged it to give me two legs days each week as find that works best for me.

    <p>We tend to tack extra arm work on the back of chest or legs these days. Adding it to shoulders day didn't work out as well - at least for our training programme.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Did a mean bicep/tricep combo today though. Will write that up on my thread rather than snake on JKs thread  :i_am_so_happy:</p>
