GHD stuff.
super exhausted yesterday, had an impromptue 4 hour work day in the sun.
you may be fine with a latex bed. I might just be too heavy. mines got significant deformation after about 4 years, and what started as a nice firm bed is now like sleeping on a giant sponge. On the upside my wife and I never wake from the others' tossing and turning.
eh, ok tonight.
squats 2x3 at 140kgs and 3x6 at 120kgs. pretty easy
ohp 2x6 at 50kgs 2x5 at 60kgs. not too bad. form is bad as always.
On holidays so had to go to a globo gym.
Deadlifts 2x5 at 180 and 150 kgs. No chalk balls. Speed at 180 went up pretty fast.
Ohp 7, 6, 6 at 60 kgs. Pretty good. Form less shit.
Rows 15 at 60kgs, 3x10 at 70 kgs. Easy.

Plan for first half of 2016.
I have mapped out a plan for the first half of 2016, almost.
I am going to do 4 cycles.
Each cycle is going to be 4 weeks in duration with a 1 week deload between cycles. So a total of 20 weeks of programming.
There will be 3 days of training plus likely a 4th day of other shit around mobility etc each week.
Each day will have 3 exercises plus cardio.
Cycle 1
This is going to be a hypertrophy cycle with 10x10 on the 3 main lifts with accessories as well as cardio.
Cycle 2
This is another hypertrophy cycle but less total volume and a increase in intensity - 8x8 on the main lifts plus accessories and cardio.
Cycle 3
This is a meat and potatoes 5x5 cycle with accessories and cardio as well.
Cycle 4
Intensity cycle with 3x3 on the main lifts and accessories as well. Added into this are comp lifts as well.
End goal is to test at the end of cycle 4 and smash pr's on every lift.
Current Pr's to beat are as follows:
Squat 175kgs sleeves
Bench 125kgs paused
Deadlift 212.5kgs with stiff eleiko bar.
I am also hoping to drop some weight. Currently sitting around 87kgs and would like to get down to very low 80's. By end of year I would like to get to a pretty lean 78kgs within shouting distance if the 74kg class.
I start on Wednesday. Its not going to be fun but hopefully it will work. I am not working towards a competition so it will hopefully go uninterrupted.
First cycle as per below.

10x10 squats
5x10 rows
