Nicely done. You've completely ****ed up the formatting in that post though. What's with all the gaps

Woke up and can't move my left ankle - no flex in it at all.

Recovery run .. felt my age

[Subby]

Back at the gym today after being off for a week and off creatine for 2 weeks. Will be interesting to see how I get on. Had my daughter staying so had to come home to sit with her instead of going to the gym.

[Roboklopp]

How'd you find it?

Was back up to 5x150 on squats Tuesday- wasn't too bad. Could feel me legs yesterday tho. Warmed up with paused ass to grass 8x60 & 3x100- then working sets (to slightly below parallel) were 5x120, 5x130, 5x140, 5x150 & 6x140. No belt or knee wraps.

Getting back there towards post-injury on squats & deads at least. Still not heard owt about me MRI scan on shoulder tho.

[Norbs]

Septalplasty....had to stitch my septum straight as it was in an S shape and not the normal straight down the middle shape as most people have.

Ouch. I had open rhinoplasty a few years ago and they cut septum to peel the nose back. I enjoyed having the stitches out

[Roboklopp]

Ooo yuck ow.

Wow that was a grind. I can't believe the difference a week not in the gym affects you

Was doing arms last night with my training partner and we were doing dropsets.

Tried to do inverted tricep skullcrushers starting off on 30kg + ezbar and managed 6 lol....6 fookin reps. He did worse he couldn't manage 3 reps. Both of us had been off the gym for a week.

6 @ 30kg
10@ 20kg
20@ 15kg were the rep goals for the dropset

The both of us just stood and laughed as how mental it was that we both struggled with the above routine. I had a couple of viper boosts in me so I managed to plough through and do them but couldn't believe the change in only a week. At least I did it and he couldn't manage lol

No creatine for a week either so that also affected my strength. I had my daughter staying so she's now back to her mums so I'll get back into the swing of things again this week.

Are your weights in lbs or kg?

[Roboklopp]

KG mate. I usually conceptualise things in lbs, but the more I train, the more part of my brain thinks in kg for lifts. Guess I have to convert kg back to lbs for real life & then convert Americans' lbs lifts to kg for understanding them in lifting terms!

I trained biceps yesterday - arms is always an afterthought for me (& mine are relatively weak compared to the rest of me), but now I can't train shoulders of chest properly, gonna make a concerted effort to strengthen them & use lack of time & intensity elsewhere.

What you mean my drop-off after a week off? Confused there.

Deads today- not looking forward to them. Lower back is still tired from stepping g the squats back up.
