Try BTN instead if military. No lower back issues. My neck and shoulders have never felt better, frankly.

 

[gbglifter]

If it helps keep lower back strain in check, why not?

BTN: 70kgx5. 90kg FAIL 70kgx8

Im pretty sure I can lift 90kg just not after Ive trained legs!

 

[Jester]

Push or strict? I assume push based on the legs remark ... ? 70 to 90 is a MASSIVE jump by the way

 

[gbglifter]

Push. Less to do with leg activation during the lift and more to do with me being generally knackered after training legs.
Ill try btn again today. First exercise.

 

[gbglifter]

Skipped the gym today due to DOMS of hell in my abs! Been so uncomfortable today. Give them and my body a rest instead.

 

[gbglifter]

I decided to do a quick at-home work out today due to missing my upper workout on friday.
I did one minute on, one minute off.

Wide push ups
Plank
One hand row with bands right
One hand row with bands left
Narrow pushups

I did this cycle twice for a total of 20 minutes. Really tough doing narrow pushups for a full minute. At least I managed something.

Ivr had problems motivating myself lately. My minds been on trackdays the last month or so. It will probably continue for the rest of summer.
Really pleased with my cutting though. Im sitting at 84kg now. Just waiting for the last bit of fat to be removed. Last year I was down to 78kg fully cut but I lost so much volume. Im feeling much fuller this time round due to me allowing a smaller deficit. Ive been in no rush to cut, which I feel allows one to lose weight slowly and steadily. I reckom another 2-3kg and Ill be properly ripped.
