Tony & Paul - FOOD - ReFeed Day 36 Sunday 4th March 2018
Sundays refeed, high carb day, i am sticking to higher carbs whereas Tony is adding in more fats e.g. butter - fat based spread to his toast and eating cookies and whole milk to bulk, it may be confusing because food is between two of us, he is eating more fats along with carbs and it is helping to create more of a surplus to gain more mass, he is quite lucky being more of an ectomorph / mesomorph in being able to get away with more junk foods.

Tony & Paul - Workout - Legs 112 - Monday 5th March 2018
Yesterday's leg workout went well, my strength is back up, instead of going back up to max working weight for front squats i added in more reps to 2 of my main working sets, actually all sets were for 12 reps, 1 warmup and then 3 main working sets, also my weight is up more, after the sunday high carb day i weighed in yesterday AM at 219 lbs, i don't know how much more mass i will be gaining, i might aim for 16 stone or 224-225 lbs by april and then start cutting for summer in mid April - August, 12-16 week cut this time round or longer depending on how lean i want to get this year.

Tony & Paul - Workout - Chest 29 - Tuesday 6th March 2018
Yesterday's chest workout, i was feeling stronger overall and illness seems to have gone completely now, air conditioning in work sucks and causes everyone to catch colds / flu.
I was able to increase weight an extra 5 kilos, 2.5 kilos on each side of bar past my previous max on last set of decline bench press and still perform 10 reps, on dumbbell which was performed after sets of decline i was able to go up to 12 reps for my 3rd set with the 130 lb dumbbells, i felt the weight on ivanko rubber encased dumbbells at bigger gym i go to they are 65 kg or 143 lbs yet feel slightly lighter than my ones which is odd, i feel they are lighter than labeled.

Tony & Paul - Workout - Back & Shoulders 47 - Wednesday 7th March 2018
Todays back and shoulder workout went well, was able to go up to full stack on reverse grip pulldowns for 8 reps which has been a new pb for me, movement may be more limited but did not feel to bad overall, due to my body weight going up they are easier, pull-ups were done at end of workout so due to fatigue and pumped arms i could barely move much, also shoulders were trained after back workout and i was happy to beat my previous max pb of 3, 20k plates per side of machine for 5 reps last week and get 7 this week, also can now do 10 with 2, 20s and a 15 kg plate per side of machine. Overall workouts have been improving, i am having pain radiating down left forearm below bicep into fingers and thumb though which may prevent me from going as heavy for tomorrow's arm workout.

Today's arm workout went well, i am having severe pain in my left arm though after warming up and arm becomes pumped, i don't know if it is torn muscle or nerve related, but feel more like a nerve is pinched or being pressed on because pain radiates from inner left bicep runs down below bicep in inner forearm behind elbow and then shoots down forearm into thumb and first finger, i have never had the pain this bad before and it feels almost similar to a broken bone, which i have experienced in the past through breaking both knees and my left collar bone, a rib and metacarpal bone in left hand as well as metacarpal in left foot.
I have also suffered from sciatica in the past but this is different.
Anyone know what this is exactly because i am sure if it was a tear in the bicep or rupture the arm would be disabled altogether.

Tony & Paul - Workout - Legs 113 - Friday 9th March 2018
Yesterday's leg workout, i went for more reps on leg press and increased weight slightly on hack squats so reduced range of movement slightly, i find if i go too low with the hack squat in this gym due to angle all pressure ends up in knees.

Tony & Paul - Workout - Chest 30 - Tuesday 13th March 2018
Todays chest workout, was able to set 3 new prs which i am happy with, one was on decline bench press for 20 reps which will be uploaded at a later date tomorrow, the other was 15 reps with 3 plates per side of bar which i have a vid of and the 3rd was a set using the 130s for bench press for around 15-16 reps. Overall a great chest workout today.
I also weighed in yesterday fully carbed up at 223 lbs which is the heaviest that i have hit.

Tony & Paul - Workout - Legs 115 - Friday 16th March 2018
Todays leg workout, went well overall was able to get up to 1122 lbs on leg press for last set, previous max was 1100 for 10 reps where i was able to get 12 with this weight today, bearings have gone on one side of machine making it rough to use so resistance was harder than usual making it feel even heavier.
