[ ]slightly annoyed at diet, but dont mind so much as fasting for a bit will do me good at points, and i had no choice today woke about 10am 2scoops whey in water 30gms oats in whole milk no food all day till 730pm then bar a packet of hula hoops, i will at least take a whey shake and chicken sandwiches with me tomorrow just incase times forces no food again food at 7:30 was half of a whole chicken i bought, with roast potatoes, 2 yorkshires and bisto gravy just back from gym whey with water will have chicken sandwich or 2 in about an hour then whey with milk before bed gym session A Squat 3x5 warm up 20k x5 60k x5 70k x5 80k x5 Strict press 3x5 30k x5 35k x5 35k x5 Pull ups 3x8 *did pull down underhand close grip on lat bar here, being in a gym made me feel poo about not being able to do the sets of pull ups yet! :/ 40k x8 45k x8 50k x8 Dips 3x8 *did skull crushers here, again being in a gym made me feel a tw4t about not being able to do the sets of dips! :/ 20k x8 20k x8 20k x8 Power cleans 3x3 *low weights, working on form, and forgot im dod 3 reps on these, definitely going heavier from the off next time 20k x5 30k x5 40k x5 Calf raises 3x8 *wanted to feel the burn with these so did a few more and i did them on the leg press so i imagine off the block would be better and harder... 100k x8 150k x12 150k x12 150k x12 loved the fact i made sure i trained after all today, and the new universal fitness gym by work in cardiff is really good, proper gym, not like the last one i was at, i would recommend it to anyone, especially "proper" bodybuilders [  ] the kit is awesome, had a short chat about the place and power cleans with one of the 3 owners, really nice guy, didnt catch his name tho!? | ||

Pleased your happy yeah was really good there mate, time will tell though as it could get over busy at times, but seems great for now, i'll still be training at home though too, so its a nice change every now and then unfortunately i only get a partner every so often at home, no chance with a gym as most go to the leisure centre by me which i hate, my home gym is bigger! lol | ||
