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:  15x80  13x80  14x70<br />
Deadlift:  15x75  15x75  15x75 (need to up this weight)<br />
Squats:  15x80  15x80  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 />

[Paj]

I bloody tired reading all that, dedication is awesome....well done 

[BartMan]

It's not THAT bad Paj, the weights sessions only take 35-45 odd minutes.  Days 1 and 2 of the Bulgarian only about 30 minutes.  You are just dog tired though at the end of the sessions.  Looked like it was raining inside at the end of the last set of squats last night!!  But all good, toned down the rowing, can't go hard out on both weights and rowing, but going to try and get back up to 30 minutes a day at least on the rower - 2 15 mnute sessions should be managable once the body starts getting used to being thrashed!!

[Paj]

Fair play then Bart,seems a hell of alot of work going on there. I wouldn't have the energy at the end of the day to do any of that! Slowly getting work fit now after 3months in the job, can now stay up until after 8pm.

[BartMan]

when you have enough energy to start training after a days work, you know you have won the battle then Paj!!

DB Curls:  13x20  13x17.5  13x15  13x12.5  13x12.5 - again, grip gives out before biceps, but by a hairs bredth!!<br />
