Once again got a really bad nights sleep, if this continues I think I'll try removing all caffeine and see if that fixes it. Felt like crap going into to this session, wasn't confident.

Woke up after about 4 hours sleep again, tried to get back to sleep for about an hour but it just wasn't happening, so got 500mg of caffeine in me and went to train :)

Been following a George Leeman styled program recently, really liking how it's working out. Think it's great for building a base by putting on a ton of mass, as well as being pretty...

Not the best workout today, don't think I got enough sleep. Woke up just after 5 (went to bed around 1) and couldn't get back to sleep so went to the gym.

Pause benched 85kg (187lbs) for 14 reps today, doing some higher reps lately to really pack on some mass and build a massive base. First I need to hit 3 plates (I'm close) but I'm certain I WILL...

Trained at 5am this morning. Wasn't ideal (didn't feel like I'd recovered from the previous two sessions), but it was the only way I could squeeze the session in.

Happy with this. In my warm up sets I could tell something was off, legs felt like they were giving way under me even when just...

Still got the bodybuilding bug atm so did shoulders & arms today. Don't think focusing on getting big right now would hurt long term strength anyway, so it's all good.

Would have liked to get a few reps with 180, but it just wasn't there. A bit disappointed, but it ties my all time best...

Well, the week from hell is finally over. Felt like death the last few days, got some sort of fever/flu. Didn't really feel like training today, but just decided to do some high rep/light pressing.

Felt like having a quick gym session, but didn't want to mess up recovery from yesterday's training, or affect tomorrow's heavy pressing. So, just did a "recovery" workout.
