    Squat 85kg 3×5
    Press 40kg 3×5
    Deadlift 100kg 1x5

    Had to skip sat (work and life stuff). So started back on mon. Squat and press no major issues. Deadlift grip (doh) weakening. Always happens when I go over 100kg. Weak forarms (11.5 inch), tiny hands (even too small to hook thumb and middle finger don't touch when wrapped around bar, will use mixed until I reach 140kg then may start to use wraps.

    Gym has decided to halt.the spread of kung flu by closing early on sat and sun at 4.00 rather than 10.00.
    Which bright spark (fucking twat) thought that up. Now everyone who would have trained between 4 and 10. Goes between 12 and 4. Gym was rammed all squat racks and deadlift areas taken. Hence

    Gym down the road from my gym shut permanently, businesses dropping like dead flies :-( No wonder place is rammed. Had a light sqaut day
    Squat 80kg 3 x 5 (easy)
    Press 47.5 1x5 1x4 1x2
    Deadlift 120kg 1x3 1x2
    Used staps on deadlift didn't feel right at first hence 2 sets, not heavy just offbalance-ish need to work on how to use them properly.

    Press 47.5kg 3x5
    Close grip bench 65kg 3x5
    Chin lat pulls 140lb 3x5
    Cable rows 135lb 3x5 (just to ease lower back strain)

    Back in to cover squats
    Squat 92.5kg 3x5
    Press 50kg 1x4 2x3
    Left rhomboid tightning and knotting, as per previous injury. Always starts to play up as I get heavier especially on bench press (hence why I now do close grip). Think I'll be rolling on tennis ball later.

    Another crappy day at the Sardine Tin
    Deadlift 130kg 1x3
    Press 50kg 1x5 2x4.
    Had to deadlift away from the deadlift platform (busy) didn't think anything off it until I started to sink into the floor as I lifted the weight. Maybe I'm.just making excuses for not wanting to pull the weight. Back in tomorrow as working fri / sat
