Oh, don't you usually use mobile though? I tend to get GPS errors under bridges or trees.

Yeah ofc give or take a few feet, but the difference between mine and his on the same route is usually like 500ft different lol, which is massive. The garmins specific to cycling have something that senses elevation changes more accurately. Mine's just a wrist watch


Yeah the garmin watches mighten be as accurate, but they're still pretty good tbf. One of my housemates has one

Been using a garmin edge for the last month or so, my uni cycling bought a pair and I'm using one atm :biggrin:

Mad max is an interesting movie if anyones interested. Would recommend you go see it in the cinema than get it at home/ computer.

A pb is a pb. Nice work on the deadlifting.

What is your planned progression on deadlift in future?

It was meant to be linear progressing. I'm finding recovery too hard though as I'm eating maintenance/ slightly below. Going to do a bit more volume spread out with some speed work. Will write it out later.

Recovery will be tough with the amount of cardio you're doing on top of lifting. Especially at maintenance calories or less.

So routine

As I tend to hammer cardio on the weekend not recovering for heavy deads again on Monday. Also squatting can't be regular it was starting to mess with me once more.

So routine.

M - Leg press 3x 6-12
Speed deficit deads 3-5 sets of 70% ish
Trap bar deads and/snatch grip deads for a heavy ish set for 8
Hamstring curls
Light bench like today

T - Medium bench so 5 x 5 or similar.
Pendlays 3-5 x 3-7
Light OHP 2-3 x 5-8
Lat pull down 3 x 7-10
Skullcrushers or tricep pushdowns
Abs

W - OHP if I can get to gym, heavy 3 x 5
Some misc back work

T - bench heavy if OHP the day before if not press from day before.
1-2 x 4+
Deadlifts heavy triple
Pendlays 3 x 8+ -10-15%
DB incline 3 x 8+
Cable row 3 x 8
Tricep accessory and abs

F - Leg press as before
Deadlifts working 1-3 x 4-7
Split squats
Hamstring curl
Pressing here shifted if miss Wed
Abs

Also changing diet. Adding a **** lot more protein from shakes. As in 40+ more grams+. The amount I've been eating isn't enough!

More than likely Wednesday. By misc back work I literally mean some chins. But fair point, I'll drop the Wednesday lifting.
