Should have gone running in the snow mate! The uni gym stay open then?

Well, I was just coming here to rant about that.

ANGRY!

However, your summer heights high avatar makes me slightly happier :P

Decent sesh, didn't really get the sweat on/fatigue during the legs workout that i expected, so I added some front squat form/grip work, and did some light cardio at the end of the session. Must need to add weight to the session, or reduce time inbetween supersets, probobly the latter.

Might do some more cardio later, depending on how I feel.

Did you not eat pre workout?

[Khanage]

Nah, went to the gym first thing today, i didn't have time.

Bad i know, i normally get at least one meal in, but as it's fat loss and not 'proper' weights, i wasn't affected that much.

Haha, don't worry this isn't long term. And im still 90kg! By no means skinny :P

Yeah this is just short term, get the bf% a bit and attempting to clean up the diet.

Tbh i could do with a change in routine for a bit, then back to the tried and tested methods and lifting epic weightttzz.

Good workout, did with my training partner, very quick and smooth transitions between exercises, and got an awesome pump. All good, again, have to do assisted chins on the machine to get the full amount of reps out.

[bishbashbosh]

You still looking to lower your bodyfat? For rugby I would I thought that's low enough? ( Want some fat to cushion the big hits)

Keep your eye out for me limping past UWIC, I'm going to go for an outdoor run tomorrow yeeee.

dude

that's not even 1 plate

your bent over row strength should be AT LEAST on par with benching, and should be a little bit stronger when you are more developed.

get to work on the pulling muscles, don't be a poseur now.
