Decided I'll clean the weights for as much of my lifting as I can. 80 was pretty moderate but didn't feel I had enough in me for 90. Still working on the best way to clean with the fat grips for overhead pressing. Didn't even attempt today.

Great squat but the best part of the video has to go to the "fuck yes" at the end.

Not 100% sold on low bar squatting but it did take a lot of strain off the knees. Like 0 knee pain when squatting. Will give it a few more weeks and see how it goes. I figure I FS as well so will still get decent quad work there.

No game this week. It's my wedding anniversary so will take the opportunity to try and get the body right before I get back on court next week.

Have been looking at my squatting style and in the next session will have a play around with different bar heights and stance widths. Have been considering switching to low bar for a while but am not totally convinced. Have never really squatted low bar but will see how it feels too.

Coges re deads - My back has been healthy and injury free for a while now - not a good idea to mess around with daedlifts but the temptation is always there. I just have to continue to resist the call to pull from the ground.

I was kind of joking re deads given your history with them. Wide/snatch grip RDLs may be an option though. Can't go too heavy given the grip but they hit the upper back pretty hard. May interfere with your recovery for FS though.

Ball game went pretty well. We won by 45. I had 5 points, 7 assists and a heap of rebounds. We had a Sudanese guy filling in for us who dropped 40. My height and ridiculously athletic but could shoot the 3 ball as well. Had a lightening 1st step which is basically how he scored most of his points. He didn't manage to put any dunks down in game but was throwing plenty down before and after, off both 1 and 2. Stuff like that gives me motivation to train harder and get myself back to a position where I can dunk with ease. I didn't even attempt any. Good up ok in game and had a few high rebounds where I knew I'd got up but the knees just felt sluggish the rest of the time. No doubt was carrying some fatigue from Sunday's bike ride.

I'll 2nd on the rows. Drop the weight initially and get the feeling right. Parallel BB rows with no body english. 1 arm rows with the elbow out (90 degrees work well for me too). Having said that the best lat builder I have found is the deadlift  :trollface:

And yeah high volume curls work well. Sets of between 15-20.

B3W day 2

Squat
bar x 5
60 x 5
80 x 5
90 x 5
100 x 5

Incline Press (FG)
bar x 5
40 x 5
50 x 5
60 x 5
65 x 5

Incline Guillotine Press (FG)
40 x 10, 4, 7

Trying to just repeat last weeks workout and start over again. Skipped dips cause I've got wicked sunburn from yesterday's ride and the ring straps chafe my arms like hell. Also, had my 2yr old in the gym with me and she kept coming over and climbing on the bench during the guillotine press.

Squats felt solid. Little fatigued from the ride but no doubt I'll notice it more in tonight's basketball game. It's a 10pm one too. Cannot wait  :pissed:

40km bike ride
rode into St Kilda with the wife. She was on her road bike and I was on a big mountain bike. Way in was fine. 20k in 56mins. Way back out was fucked. Had nothing in the tank after about 30k and was riding into a massive headwind. Took me 1:23 on the way back. At no time was I out of breath but the legs were absolutely spent.
