Left knee giving me grief again.

Was sore during deads yesterday and then played golf at a rather hilly course which wouldnt have helped. Was dam sore late yesterday but seems ok now. Not sure what I will be doing for legs session tomorrow.

Best solution is a top quality horse

@jk fuck just back the field mate!!

I was on Youngstar on a "Winx Out" market the other week, and was super impressed. Probably go that way.

So many internationals always makes the form hard to pick, but Best Solution looks pretty good value.

Even though it is our business, True-Love always looks at the Australian and NZ racing before making any hard plans on weekends. Hotels must have TAB Trackside too when away. It really is great having someone look after these important aspects of life.

Better still, often she prefers me elsewhere when racing is on so Golf is mostly a go on Saturdays!

i think i love her.

Last Saturday was awesome, the kids were roaming the neighbourhood, and Mrs Mariner was happy to watch trash TV inside and have a lazy arvo. So i sat on the couch outside and watched racing all day, drinking beer and punting. Fucking bliss.

I am wondering what my chances are of repeating tomorrow?

Tomorrows all planned for me...

Son has cricket in the morning which means I get to sit in the sun for a couple of hours doing form. Then wifes out from 12 til late and i'm at home with the kids. So BBQ, Beers and Racing!

I can see why she is indeed True-Love!

My wife never really like horse racing or the punt but its grown on her given the extra luxuries that has been able to afford over the last year or two. Often asked how much is in the account and I give her an honest answer, I only give the balance from the lowest of my 4 accounts though!

But she use to roll the eyes when I said 'Oh need to watch this race' but now shes actually keen to watch any of the big races and any involving winx. Even during the Everest last week I could tell she was fizzing (on the inside anyway)

Major legs DOMS last few days. Been really feeling it.

Yesterday did 30mins cardio and some abs work which was a circuit of 6 exercises then 1 min skipping break before repeating 5 times through

This morning the usual shoulders (giant set of 5 exercisies, 5 times through) and arms for a friday.

Caulfield Cup tomorrow

Been a fan of Kings Will Dream since early this year and have had a little play at it in the futures @ $31. Now at around $6 and drawn well. Has been set for this and think should do well.

Youngstar a big danger. Looked great coming home behind winx a few weeks back.

Also have a something of cliffs of moher as I really rate this horse.

But now I'm getting keener and keener on Best Solution trained by Saeed Bin Suroor. Quality horse with a proven recond at distance. Will be interesting to see how it goes first up here but has a delivered after a break on most occasions. Has to lug the top weight but great value still at $16 and $4.50

Realistically there are probably about 8 horses I could make a case for. Looks a great caulfeild cup

Legs today and back to basics

A good 25min ride to warm up then usual mobility stuff.

Change up was to start with the hammies first today and get pumped up before squats. Made the squats feel a tad different in that felt much more solid down in the bottom of the squat. Will def do again.

Squats weren't heavy today but 4 working sets of 8 reps at 120kg. Felt pretty good but last few reps bit of a grind in the latter sets.

Leg press - 3 sets of 25 reps to finish off the quads

Straight leg deads - 3 sets of 20 for the stretch.

Calves - 4 sets seated raises, 4 sets using leg press

Finished with 3 x 1 min worth of bench jump overs (did heaps of these at f45 so thought to add them in) and some abs work.

@paekakboyz said in JK vs 2018 - building BigRed:

@jk you must have done the devils work to get doms in your calves!! ha ha nice work brew

It was that 100 rep set mate....who woulda thought

Cheers mate - may try! May!

Quick update - sore calves lasted until sunday night. Calves often are longest to recover I find.

Monday - Pull
Tuesday - am was cardio and abs. PM will be Push.

Only got on sat morning after a mate told me to. Then didn’t notice it was racing until the race itself!

Heard earlier today that yucatan would back up this weekend for the caulfield but just heard that plan has been pulled.
