We know we are seasoned lifters when we get niggles if we forget to do our warm ups lol.

Yeah mate. First squat and I was like "Awwww fark here we go again..." glad I sorted it.
Was only person in the gym too so had my own sounds cranking through the system. Pretty enjoyable session

Same mate! Dont think it was legit though as I bought it in Thailand after picking up a cheap walkman and needing something to play on it!

Doh almost two weeks update
More of the above really. Weights progressing and overall feeling good.
Fair bit of riding too plus the od crash so a few bumps and bruises from that but thankfully hasnt impacted the weights work

@jk knees ok on squats? the biking would be so good with all that mahi building up your legs and stuff.

Yeah mate knees are feeling good. As long as I warm up alright then squats are golden
Was actually a bit worried as golfed yesterday and usually feel it in the knee the day after due to walking about on the hard undulating ground but no issues

Boohoo another lockdown so another set back from the gym.
All my weights are down at the bach too so dont have anything here really other than bike and running shoes. Could do some bodyweight type of exercise workout but not sure I can be farked!
Last weeks training was great. Still 5x5 and weights on the rise. Hardest so far are weighted pullups. BW + 10kg is a struggle at the moment but getting through it. Deads and squats feeling good.
Decent ride yesterday - a local 28km. Some good fun in there. Might try get out tomorrow morning. Maybe, maybe a run later today

This statement couldn’t possibly be more “Auckland” if it tried

Quarterly update....
Feeling good, pretty fit, maybe a bit thicker and juicier than usual too but hey its winter so perfect time for it.
In the gym 5 days still (well mornings of course) and enjoying the training and cranking some tunes early in the am. Keeps the stress away as well as any effects from farther time. Feeling almost as strong as ever but probably fitter. No current injuries to report wooot!
Riding about 50km a week minimum, higher when can get out on the trails, maybe 70-80km. None of this sill road riding stuff though and still dont (wont ever) own any lycra.
Eating is same old. I train to eat in reality and am still a real pig when given the chance (stacks of treats at work and unfortunately at home too) but hey I burn the cals so can get away with it. Will look to tidy things around the end of next quarter with summer on the horizon.
