<p>Great session this morning. Really good when you back up a crap one (like yesterday) with one like today.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Trying out a new preworkout my best mate is formulating. Not 100% sure on ingredients as yet but very impressed for a single scoop. Lazer focus, solid pump and really good clean energy. The mood enhancement / feel good factor though is out of this world. Wow.</p>

<p>Also picked up my monthly allocation yesterday which in addition to the new test stim including some BCAAs, protein bars (fuk left them in the car) and a tub of casein whey. I dont usually use casein but will replace my post bed whey shake with the casein whey. It's chocolate too so a good one for the evening when you often need something sweet to satisfy.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Sorry no blondie report today. She was there but cant for the life of me remember seeing what she was up. That lazer focus on the workout I tell ya!</p> -

<p>I swear you are the Walter White of the training forum bro - Mr Chemist!! Doctor Gainz!!</p>

<p>At my suburban YMCA we're lucky to see any women under the age of 60. They have been spotted, but are as rare as hens teeth and mostly a bit on the wobbly side.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Used to be some absolute crackers when I trained in Oslo :man_in_love:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Love my gym though. Bit of an early 80s feel and most inhabited by seniors with nothing else to do, but has everything I need and always heaps of space and no waiting. The odd hot blonde wouldn't go astray though....</p> -
<p>Two days rest always does me well over the weekends. Seems to set me up nicely for a big monday</p>

<p> </p>
<p>Big week ahead workwise and hopefully in the gym as well. Planning heavy squats tomorrow but will see how we go. Some volume in the deadlifts on thurs and shoulder destruction on weds.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Weighed in yesterday (gonna do them weekly on Sunday mornings) and was bang on 80kg still but now just under 14% body fat. All good for now.</p> -
<p>Any targets in mind for squats tomorrow? Good call to rest up over the weekend - sometimes its the last thing you want to do but gotta let the body recover from time to time!</p>

Bugger your body fat, what was the blonde doing?
