Training Challenge - podcast part 1, nutrition discussion

You make it way too simple. Remember though, people who get letters added either before or after their name need to make things seem complicated to justify the extra letters.

Nice photo Benny... keep up the dieting and you may be able to swing on the railing at my place without breaking it off the wall like you did last year.

For those with porridge on the brain - keep up the good work and you may aspire to become a double world champion... Underwater hockey and Porridge making (a sponsors dream).

yesterday, 79.0kg.

feel good... getting sick kind of screwed my routine around a wee bit but i'm now back into it ok.

....um, of note i guess, deadlifts are good, have been able to chuck a bit more weight on with a bit more confidence... after reducing the incline a bit as instructed have been able to put up my weights for DB incline press a bit, so thats all good... still a bugger to get them up in the first place but no biggie... the first week when i got to dips i was already a bit buggered so didnt need to add more weight, i could just concentrate on getting my technique and tempo correct and it'd push me enough to be teetering on the last rep each set, but last week i had to strap up a bit of extra weight, so guess i'm getting used to it.

the breathing squats have got a lot harder in the last week as i've made the weight more consistent... thats about it.

thought i mentioned that? i just got a cold, not a serious one... took a day off work on the friday, took it easy on the weekend. that was LAST weekend, not the one just been, but it kinda messed with my rest day etc.

i've now managed to get the power/hypertrophy(???) days linked together again as i started... this weekend i have a camp so will be a bit disrupted again.

Well, I don't have anything exciting to report. All of the changes have been implemented and its kind of just become routine, so its "cruising" at the moment. At the end of this week, in anticipation of my body becoming bored with the routine, I will mix it up a little, swapping one cardio session to a spin class, and changing weights combos.

I'm definitely noticing my body responding to the weights, and thank God summer is on its way, which means its light when I get up for training! I've also noticed I'm needing a less sleep

No injuries or illnesses yet (touch wood)! Training camp this weekend too, however that won't interupt the weights component of my training.

"so thats all good... still a bugger to get them up in the first place but no biggie"

i guess you meant its a bugger to ge the dumbells up into position to start the press.
if it is then maybe this might help you,just hope i can explain right

as you sit on the end of the bench,place the dumbells vertically on your knees,(still holding them, then as you fall back to lie on the bench,let your knees follow your head as it falls to the bench this will push the dumbells into place(now above your head and ready to go) the push with the knees gives them momentum in an easy strong motion to put them into place for the exercise..

dumbells are a bummer as you get stronger they become more cumbersome.
by the way are you using a nice thick weight belt for the deadlifts.

reminds me i must buy one also..
