notes

Great workout in the books, wanted 34KG 4x5 but felt a bit easy so added a rep on the last 2 sets (Next week going for 38KG 4x3 PR) but still felt very smooth. I have added in Push-Ups as I want to add some functional movement into my chest routine as currently I don't really feel there is any, when I can do 4x25 I will add some weight to it / maybe do them suspended.

I have decreased volume on chest work because for the last month I have had pec issues and one of the things that I realised looking back at old workouts was I have added way more volume + sets to failure. When comparing to other peoples bench work (who Press more or similar to me) their volume is much lower on the whole.....

Tomorrow = Squats (want 120KG 1x3)

I am going to make a longer post either later tonight/tomorrow about some of my thoughts regarding strength training and what people who aren't interested in powerlifting can do to incorporate it into their regime.
