              Awkward moment tonight. I was partnered with one of girls. She's quite good, and I like partnering with some body that knows what they are going. Tonights pass involved leaning over them with a hand on their chest. I was just really aware of the fact I was grabbing her boobs. Usually it fine as you roll around each other. I think it was because it's fingers and palms rather than elbows, chest to chest etc

                            Was 2-3 seconds late with the second lap. Messed up the start.
                            This was the first one where I wasn't recovering in time. Time only dropped a little, and only 0.1s slower than the sets with 1:20rest.

                            I think the wheels come off with 30 seconds rest

                                Ass lifting is totally fine, just means your using your legs properly pushing into the ground.
                                Go for the 100 for 3 or 4 and drop down. Let your muscle get used to a new weight so it can grow and develop.

                                  I ass lifting off the bench is a technically a fail, I don't compete though so I don't care too much. It does turn it into a decline bench, of sorts, which should probably be avoided.

                                  Completely on board with leg drive though. That's key imo. I can never understand people who bench with their legs up in the air.

                                  I hit 100kg and 101.5kg for a triple last year. Feel like I could do that now, but want to bring by 5-8 rep range up up first.

                                    Completely on board with leg drive though. That's key imo. I can never understand people who bench with their legs up in the air.

                                    Unless you're competing I wouldn't worry about it. Assuming it comes off after the bar leaves your chest, it's merely an indication of good leg drive and not cheating the bar up by using your legs to decrease the range of motion.
                                    Lots of people will disagree, but whatever.

                                      Good point. It's only coming up in the second half of the rep. Purely from squeezing out the last bit of leg drive, not shorting the ROM.
                                      You've convinced me I'll up the weight next week.

                                              Recovery becoming a challenge now. Slipped above 3:20

                                              Had a false start where the monitor wasn't working right. But I only noticed after 130m. Was a excellent start too
                                              Reset the monitor, and the first was still easy, hit 1:35 average halfway and had to slow right down to 1:50 come in on target. I'm thinking now that a steadier 1:40 might be more efficient.

                                              By the 3rd and 4th. My start was slow and I was dying as I hung on for 50.0

                                                  A walk...


                                                  Yup went for a walk. Wasn't even that far. Had a few hills and some steps.
                                                  Stretching out more than anything.




                                                  Missed my gym session on Monday, due to being on site all day. (Which was probably more exercise than the "walk". And that closes out October. Not a great result for numbers. Weeks fell awkwardly.

                                                  26 sessions, Slipped a bit here. And the target of 300 is looking a shade out of reach atm. November will make or break. Only 4 weekends at least.

                                                      You will make it in November. It's either that, or sit at home and grow a 'tache. Enjoy it.

                                                        Well I've got a bit of a bushy beard at this stage. So 'tache isn't an option. Guess I'll just have to hit my target instead.

                                                        Spent all day setting up a new gym with work. I don't care I'm counting it as a workout.
                                                        Move lots of equipment.

                                                        Highlights include;

                                                        Farmer Carry
                                                        4 each of 8kg, 12kg, 16kg, 20kg, 24kg Kettlebells (560kg total)
                                                        Off a rack, Carried 10m, another 10, and back on to a rack.


                                                        Rower:
                                                        250m Test (brand new machine)

But added/maintained size around back, shoulders. Hopefully the led decrease is mostly fat, but I don't really care either way as strength is good lately.
