Upper body weights session with Prop Cyril - and loving it at the moment, as stronger than him. Although it will take about 2 days and he will be stronger than me again...<br />
<br />

<br />
Legs n Arms at Squids Gym. Fark, legs were feeling muscles that they forgot existed after about 6 bloody squats. Good days ahead for sure!!<br />
<br />
OH, and the official weigh in on Mrs BM's scales on Sunday - 95kg. Under the ton by a serious amount now - but added weights sessions with stabilise that, and hopefully add some...!<br />
<br />
Got the rowing blues this week - 12 minutes about as long as I can face at a time!<br />
<br />
Wednesday: 12 minutes 3112.   14 minutes 3705     16 minutes 4301<br />
Another weights session with the big Cyril, and still stronger than the big C. Might take him a week this time to get ahead!! Upper body again, bench, shoulders, back. Caning it in preperation for 'Bulgarian' next week - will post the Bulgarian system here once I get book off mate, it is brilliant if a little hard core - 3 months of maniacal training, which give you fantastic gains if you follow the plan. maximum length of these workouts would be 45 minutes.<br />

Did a 'practise day' for the bulgarian Weights Progamme that we will be starting next week (me n prop Cyril)<br />
Sort of got it right anway - 90 seconds rest between sets, rep range 13-15, weights as follows - go as heavy as you can for as long as you can the theory pretty much!!<br />
Bench Press:Â 15x80Â 13x80Â 14x70<br />
Deadlift:Â 15x75Â 15x75Â 15x75 (need to up this weight)<br />
Squats:Â 15x80Â 15x80Â 15x80 (again, increase weights)<br />
Dumbell Curls 15x22 15x22 15x22 (Again, increase weights)<br />
So in theory, your weights should decrease each set, but your reps stay the same - if you can do more than 15 reps with a weight, it is not heavy enough, last reps in each set should be about to kill you!!<br />
