<p>PT is gonna send through updated nutrition plan this weekend and said would be adding in some more carbs later in the day. Sounds good.</p> -
<p>No real exercise saturday but had a massive binge meal with the lads at a local buffet house. Was pretty epic.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Sunday was golf so just a leisurely 7k or so of walking.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This morning did my usual 15mis ride and knee rehab work and then a circuit which was:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>BB clean and press - 12x35kg</p>
<p>BB rows - 12x35kg</p>
<p>BB front squat - 12x35kg</p>
<p>Pullups - 12 res</p>
<p>Pressups - 20 reps</p>
<p>Decline crunches - 20 reps</p>
<p>1min rest</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Did 6 rounds of this and managed the first two unbroken. From then on the pullups were the issue and would managed say 8 and then 4, then 6, then 3 then 3 etc. The last round was hell.</p>
<p>Was funny as I actually thought the bar i was using was 10kg but got told it was 15kg so the 30kg I thought I was lifting become 35kg. Will try repeat this again on thursday.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Finished off with a 3 sets of seated bicep curls superset with tricep pushdowns</p> -
<p>youch, that's a cool circuit. The first three will hammer your legs even though the first two kind of feel more back/upper body.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Always cool when you accidentally lift more than planned... with 'lift' being the operative word there!</p> -
<p>15mins cycle this morning then leg extensions, wall squats and a roll.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Also did bit of a chest and back session which includes incline DB press, decline DB flies, seated rows, flat bench DB press, hyper extensions and dips. Back related work was pretty light as feeling it a bit from yesterdays circuits.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Almost died doing DB press when had a 40kg DB slip out of my hands due to the humidity. Felt it glance my shoulder as it passed by. Farken close.</p> -
<p>close call!! would not be a fun day having one of those clip you in the head!!</p>

Well works over for the year and so too my early morning trainings sessions. Will be in the gym still just not as often and probably every day or two <br><br>
Eating is about to become a bit more relaxed too, not that it hasn't been over the last few weeks anyway with all the Xmas lunches and dinners for work<br><br>
Today was shoulders and arms and a fairly good session. Strength still going up despite weight going down. Repped out seated OHP with 27.5kg DBs this morning. Felt good -
Went with the wife to one of the outdoor sessions put on by les mills down at the beach. 30mins of high intensity with lots of squats, lunges, mountain climbers, jumping jacks, burpees, pressups, sprints etc<br><br>
I gave it heaps and was right on my limiter most the way through. The PT chick noticed it too and came over after, gave me a high 5 and said I killed it. Wife wasn't that impressed.<br><br>
Jeff Wilson and his wife Adine were there too getting a sweat on. -
