Busy day yesterday but still home by 4ish so no real knock on effect when I got up this morning thankfully. Gym was nice and quiet when I was there (soon got busy when I finished) so sailed thru the session bar a bit of nattering.

A: Smith Inc Press (25 bar): x25, 45, 65, 85, 95x6, 5, 5
B: Lat Pull Down - normal: 10, 12, 15+3 x6, 5
C: Trap Row: 40, 80, 110x7, 5
D: Incline Bar Push Down: 13, #16x7, 6
E: Belt Machine Curls: x15, 20x8, 6

Off to a flyer, Inc work comfortably up a rep on each set. I say 'comfortably' it's not like I had loads left in me but nothing was a grinder. Big take home here is again not a notable issue on the shoulder. LPD saw +1 on the 2nd set which took a bit of effort but stayed clean. Trap rows up 1 on each set. I think these held together well enough. Inc PD work just up the 1 rep, I may have had another on the first set but I thought 7 reps was already up, and it wasn't. Wasn't making the same mistake on biceps, +1 on each set here.

It's gone up a bit but not  a silly amount yet, and thankfully I use about a tank a month so I do t stress it too much. The prices here are set at the start of the day I think. I don't believe I've every seen it change during the day, there would be uproar as the fuel you are currently using was probably bought a week ago from a supply who bought it a month ago so there is no justification for changing the price on the day.

Long day today but a nice lunch. Back home in time for pizza

With all this Iran stuff you’d surely be feeling it at the pump!

Someone I know was furious as they sat in a queue to fuel up and the price per litre changed by 20c as he was sitting there watching it!!

Fish and chips for me this Friday!

If I managed to convince myself not to go that would certainly be wimping out. Fortunately I didn’t manage and I had a session that still maintains at a minimum.

Sat 7rd march
Wg cable pullups..: 60x5

Tried sticking my legs under a 30kg barbell to prevent myself flying away, and it worked. But felt a bit awkward.
Will stick to 50 for the time being.

I've just had a good fish and chips binge!

Sensible approach the session. Not for the same reasons, but I often enter a session of the same mind set. And it's not wimping out, if it's there I'll take it, but I won't chase it unnecessarily.

Getting to Notts? If I'm not worried about fuel consumption and traffic is on our side it's about 1:30/45. I'm 2.mins from the motorway, and he's about 10mins off it the other side so a pretty easy drive. And I don't think there is any football matches tomorrow which is where the traffic can get you

Nice little power up. How long does that take?
