Training with Manveer.
Front Squat

Straps, Rehband sleeves
105 kg X 3 X 3
X-1-3 Tempo Press
℞ Ten singles across

Couldn't load 56 kg as all the 0.5 kg plates were in use. Since the last go with 55 kg wasn't great I was happy to stick there.

Wednesday 25 October
BW: 89.5 kg
I felt sick and skipped Monday this week. Planning to train Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, but since the priority is press and back to back squat days are dumb I only did upper body stuff for this Wednesday morning session.
X-1-3 Tempo Press
℞ Ten singles across
55 kg X 1 X 10
OK. Training in second gym with no microplates after a slight break so didn't try to increase the weight. They've actually got a 28mm bar with tolerable knurling now, so that's an improvement.
3-1-3 Chin Grip Pulldown
45 kg X 8 X 3
Elbow / wrist pain.
Elliptical
20 minutes @ c. 125-130 bpm

Thursday 2 November
Front Squat
Light Day
Straps, Rehband sleeves
95 kg X 3 X 3
Knees sore.
3-1-3 Tempo Bench
40 kg X 1 X 10
Cautiously trying bench again. This seemed OK at the time but my shoulder was a bit more sore after. I'll try again and monitor closely.

Took a heavier weight on the paused sets to aid working in with someone. Pauses were short and even so those sets were tough.

Saturday 4 November
Training in gym #2.
Front Squat
Medium Day
Straps, Rehband sleeves
105 kg X 3 X 3
X-1-3 Tempo Press
℞ Ten singles across
Belt
55 kg X 1 X 10
Added belt because my back's been a bit sore recently and I don't want that to bottleneck my shoulder rehab. Elbows got irritated.
3-1-3 Chin Grip Pulldown
45 kg X 8 X 3
Don't like the pulldown machine in gym #2. Elbow pain.
Monday 6 November
Only going to manage 2 sessions this week.
Front Squat
Heavy Day
Belt, straps, Rehband sleeves
115 kg X 3 X 5
Added belt for heavy day. +2.5 kg on last week. Tough but good.
3-1-3 Tempo Bench
℞ Ten singles across
41 kg X 1 X 10
Still unsure how well I'm tolerating this. I think it was better than last time. It seems to feel better when I don't depress my shoulders too aggressively.
3-1-3 Chin Grip Pulldown
50 kg X 7 X 3
Tough, couldn't get 8 reps. Elbows somewhat better today.
