Superset with bent over rows. 5 sets lat pull down 5 sets lat raises 5 sets cable pull (I have no idea what it's called) 5 sets sat down row 5 sets back extension Finished up with a quick ab blast: Sit ups Russian Twists Leg raising Planks and 5 mins cycle. not pointing this at you but I remember in the gym before where this dude took about 6 sets of dumbells and was hording them to himself and each time anyone said 'can I use one of those' as it appeared he was doing nothing he would say "nah, doing supersets mate" "supersets, supersets" fuck |

I get it. I try and be considerate and take a weight that's heavy but doable and not take ages with my workout. If someone asks, I usually just say 'll be 5 mins then take it over to them, if still needed. Weight horders are the worst though. |

I'd struggle to do 50 narrow grip ones spread out over sets! |

A mates sent me a 9 week training program and I feel like I've heavily plateau'd recently so I've decided to go for it properly, eating the right way for it and cutting out as much booze as I can.
Starting the lean bulk program at 5.85 Ft, 13 stone on the dot and 15.5% bodyfat. Will let you know if I look like Terry Crews by the end of it.

Devastated. My doctor told me not to play cricket a couple of years back post ACL reconstruction. It felt really well and I did a lot of leg work at the gym.
As I ran up to bowl yesterday it completely went but it was only the Medial this time which is apparently very rare after I had all my cartilage cut out. Back on codeine and crutches for a few weeks.

NIGHTMARE!
Look after it bud!
I'm saving up to do a PT course at the end of the year. Still a long way to go for myself, but hoping being a bit chunkier than most PT's may work to my advantage. Who knows?

I need to do some research, but looks like the PureGym one might be the best value, as you can do it in the city you're based in. Theirs is £1499, but that includes class certifications, Dr referral certification etc etc. Also need to look at a business and finance course too. |

Quick update on my gym going.
Down to 93kg now. 37% body fat. Which still seems high, but it's such a huge change from where I was. Aiming to get to 89kg and 33% body fat by end of the year if I can.
Quitting booze certainly helped. Although I've been back on the IPAs since the World Cup started.
Current training program is:
Monday - Upper Body (chest, back, arms)
Tuesday - Legs
Wednesday - Cardio
Thursday - Upper body (Shoulders, back arms)
Friday - Rest
Saturday - Cardio followed by abs
Sunday - Chest and a swim.
The Wednesday cardio may as well be a rest day, as I just get on a bike at the gym and do that for 45 mins, followed by a bit of mobility work/stretching. Saturday cardio is as follows:
25 Pull ups
50 press uos
50 deadlifts
50 box jumps
50 Kettlebell clean and press
50 Russian twists
25 Pull ups
Then I'll hope on a Cross-Trainer for 10 mins, then do a 1km row.

started using Kettle bells in my training as well as a lot of body weight training; rings and frames. really enjoy calisthenics as there is always a new move to hit and a challenge to complete instead of just hitting PB's in lifts.
damaged my neck doing muscle ups so haven't been able to train properly for 3 months. getting back in to now though.
I follow a guy on instagram whos amazing - Primal Swoldier and another guy called JTM_Fit . doing a lot of their exercises
our gym has just got an Assault Bike too and theyre hard as fuck! everything burns, mainly the lungs

I have always had little, niggly, injuries and after I done my neck I had to change something. always suffered with tight legs; calfs, hamstrings and shin splints too. its working so far and really enjoy it. especially if i'm feeling stressed. try to go at least once a week. |
