So after a bit of searching, i decided to do this 4-day split for a while: https://www.muscleandstrength.com/workouts/4-day-maximum-mass-workout

Why this? No particular reason. It seems fun, has all the main lifts i wanna be doing, has kinda different splits and exercises than i'm used to and it features those funny 5 minute burners concept.
Ok , lets get a little bigger  :headbang:

31 October

DEADLIFT:
Build up to 2x5 @ 80 kg

BENT DB ROW:
3x12 @ 15 kg

WIDE GRIP LAT PULL DOWN:

BB ROW Duh, skipped by mistake

SEATED CABLE ROW 5' BURN :
15+15+10+10+10+15 = 75 reps @ 47kg

EZ BAR PREACHER CURL:
3x12 @ 17 kg

DB CONCENTRATION CURL:

Muscles are nonsensical they have nothing to do with this bullshit.

I use the RepCount app on Android to record my workouts,no more pen and paper for me, and you can save routines or repeat a past workout and have all the details filled in already.
All your rep PRs and stats at a touch of a botton, if you subscribe.

Extremely happy to get low 5' pace, never saw it coming.

Run 10K @ 567:45 ( 5:40 pace )

Nice, humidity was over 90%, was sweating line crazy although temperature was like 10'C/50'F.
Very happy to be able to keep this 10K "base" level with just 1 run per week. But i will step my mileage game up.
