You learn something every day. This morning I learned where the switches are for the weight room spot lights (usually on) and for the fans (usually off). This information will be useful for the summer.
(Weight x reps x sets)
(Recovery day)
Front squat
40 x5
60 x5
80 x4
100 x3
120 x2
135 x5 x2
I will be reducing the load on this lift, going from 65% to 60% of the squat.
Bench Press
80 x5
100 x5
120 x3
130 x1
140 x5 x3
I think I might have got the concept of "rowing the bar down" to the chest. Mind you, I thought I had the concept of driving the feet into the ground too, but from the comments I got in the Technique section this doesn't seem to be the case.
Chin-ups
4 x7
3 x1
Hang Power Snatch
Burgener warm-up
60 x3
75 x3 (33Kg)
Only five minutes, but I like this lift too much to leave it out.
The notebook is back in my bag, thanks to the efforts of the gym staff.
As of today I'm introducing a new counter, to keep track of the number of consecutive sessions since the last injury. This could be considered as tempting fate, but my fate with injuries can hardly get much worse anyway.
Bets accepted about the number it will stop on.
