    Feeling good today. Had to work on being adaptable with diet today. One of the joys of living 12 hours from the state capital is that my protein order that should have arrived Friday, is lost and won't arrive til Thursday. And I ran out yesterday. So after workout tonight I drank 1 litre of low...

  5. Lifting Log

    Nice blog post. I totally agree with what you are saying about enjoying your workout. I have come to the conclusion that I am still a beginner lifter after many years of not really getting into anything. I've done a few rounds of Wendler over the past year, gotten stronger for sure, but slowly...

    Tuesday was a planned day off. Wednesday I was working an early and when I got in I was asked if I could do a patient transfer to Perth return Thursday. Since this meant I'd be able to spend a night at home with my wife I jumped at it. Leaving 8am Wed and returning at 8 pm Thu those two days...

    Still been sick, one of the joys of remote nursing is that a lot of the locals have poor health and hygiene, so flus tend to hang around, and when you have to nurse them, its hard to avoid being sick. So I started antibiotics for a chest infection on Saturday, and spent two days pretty much...

    Close enough to better that I got back into it yesterday. Last week all I could do was go for a 30 minute walk each day to keep myself moving. Yesterday and today just smashed it. I've had plenty of rest so I figured I'd just jump in hard. Monday 25th August OH Press 3x50, 3x52.5, 3x55...

    Biggest thing I can tell anybody to change if they are not getting anywhere, is attitude. I CAN train harder, I WILL eat more, I WILL sleep more. And if things don't quite come together, go train hard anyway. Got a slight cold last night, overslept this morning so I didn't have breakfast an...

    Thursday 7th August Squat 3x100, 3x105, 3x110, 3x112.5, 3x120 (rep PR) I have to say I hit this today due to attitude alone, way to early to put it down to training or diet. Partials 3x130, 2x140, 2x150, 1x160, 1x170. All reps were between 1/2 and 1/4ish. Last rep I couldn't lift, so stepped...

  20. Training Program?

    So I've been doing some version or other of Wendler for the past year or so, slow and steady, boring but bat****. Found Chaos and Pain blog a few weeks ago and finally finished reading the whole thing (well, skimmed most, read lots, and bookmarked stuff to go back to). And I came to the...
