185 lbs x 10
195 lbs x 5
205 lbs x 6 (With spotter, but spotter was new so he held the bar all 6 reps)
205 lbs x 6 (Sorted with spotter, 3 reps unassisted and 3 assisted)
225 lbs x 5 (Negatives)


Incline BB press

135 lbs x 10
155 lbs x 8
165 lbs x 10 (With spotter, last 4 assisted)


Machine Dips

160 lbs x 10
180 lbs x 10 x 2

35 kgs (Per side) x 8 x 2
30 kgs (Per side) x 10

Tricep pushdowns

Thinking of scaling down on the bench if I do hit 225. The bar really bit into my palms during the negatives, had some bruising.

29 Nov - Back


Bent over BB rows

135 lbs x 10

Restarted bent over rows after a 4 month cessation due to back injury. Got a belt today as insurance, straps helped bypass grip issue on higher weights but took a little getting used to. Bought new tubs of Myo today too, cookies and cream tastes great. COOKIES! Nom nom nom.

Looking back, loving the strength gains these past month.
Think I may close out the year strong (Not sure if pun intended).

Lol I see what u did there!

Keep em pr's coming man!

Let's do this.
By end of this month you gotta hit your 100 lbs DB presses, and I'll hit the 2 plates bench.

sounds like a challenge. vids to prove. lets do this!

Let's do...oh wai~

You're at 94 lbs/5 reps. Target - 100 lbs.
I'm at 205 lbs/2 reps. Target - 225 lbs.

Think you can prolly hit it next week. I'm targetting to 31 Dec get to it.

=.=" u crazy lol. definitely not next week. im cant even get them to starting position let alone press it.

The DBs at your gym are 5 lbs increments? 94,99,104?
Hmm, should we get Dan in on this?

new gym is in kg's. so i would imagine 40kg, 42.5kg, 45kg etc etc. lets hope so anyways.

sure bring him in, the more the merrier. lets make it a video challenge too!

You should be shooting for the 47.5 kg DBs then.
Well, as long as we provide vid evidence it should be ok. Will give ya a FB link if I don't put it in the general forums.

Posted in Dan's log. He needs to pick a lift.


Edit :

Dan is in!

Front squat current - 100kg. Target - 110kg.

Feeling some serious fatigue the past 2 days. It's been great progress the past couple of months, and I'm wondering if my body is telling me to deload.

are you a member there or your paying on an entry basis ?
