Jogged to gym ~1 mile (lol my cardio is horrendous)

Overhead Press
Bar x 5
30kg x 5,5,8

Chinups BW x 5,4,3,3 [interspersed between OHP and Squats]

Squat
30kg x 5
50kg x 5
60kg x 5,5,7 [blarg, form still needs re-sharpening. i need to get my squat shoes from home! will do this on wednesday or so]

DB Row
20kg x 10, 11 [second set cheatier, but still controlled the eccentric and made sure to squeeze/pause a bit at the top]

Lat pulldown
32kg x 10, 10 [increase pump and get more volume]

Notes

I got through this in under 30 minutes, so perhaps I should rest more to get more volume on the money lifts (i.e. the amrap final sets). I felt a bit anxious because the gym was so full and didn't want to hog the squat rack (though there are three, so I oughtn't feel this way). I like doing back exercises.

Jogged to gym ~1mile

Bench press (thumb's length from inside knurling)
40kg x 5
60kg x 1 [heh]
50kg x 5
45kg x 5,6,4
^^^ worked in with someone, and since I haven't benched since restarting I kind of guessed at things. Will be more sensible next time [i.e. probably do work sets at 45 or 47.5]

Deadlift
60kg x 3
70kg x 3 [paused these reps 2 inches of the floor to cue good form and quad drive]
80kg x 7
90kg x 2 [just to see how this would go. my grip strength isn't great and i refuse to go over-under, so i will need to look for my straps too when i visit home]

Chinup BW x 2 [i guess deadlifts are hard on one's back? who knew]

High incline DB press [like 60 degrees]
10kg x 10
14kg x 7 [switched to neutral grip]
12kg x 6,5
10kg x 8

Lat pulldown
32kg x 14
39kg x 10
45kg x 7

Prone leg curl [spent a while trying to work out how to get this machine properly set up for me, did these to get extra volume since not much leg stuff done with only a couple DL sets]
36kg x 8
32kg x 7 [actually remember to cue glutes and keep pelvis tucked, like in strict for natural GHRs and this became much harder]
23kg x 7

Seated rows [neutral grip]
32kg x 10, 8
25kg x 9, 8

Supersetted:
Back hyperextension - BW x 10,10,10
Facepull - something light x 10,10,10 [I think I wasn't doing this quite with classic form]

Notes
Nice workout. Actually eating breakfast beforehand is helpful. This is also quite a lot of volume, I suppose, but I'm feeling up for it, so we shall see.

Programme outline

1A
OHP 3x5+
Squat 3x5+

1B
Bench 3x5+
DL 1x5+

2A
Bench 3x5+
Squat 3x5+

2B
OHP 3x5+
DL 1x5+

So it's 1A/1B/1A//2A/2B/2A// repeat (each / == 1 day off)

Will do 1 vertical and 1 horizontal pulling exercise at every workout, may do extra stuff as and when.

for DL grip, try hook grip. super uncomfortable at first, hands adapt. makes a big difference.

Why hate over-under ( sincere question ) ?
Hook grip made a world of difference for me in power cleans but i never got to get used to it for DL/RDL, i still use over-under. There is a very strong mental link that i am stronger that way and i can't break that link, or if you will, i don't care enough to.
:welcome: back!!!
Target training paces (min/km), calculated from 5K PR 22:49 :
Easy run : 5:48
Tempo run : 4:50
VO2-max run :4:21
Speed form run : 4:02

---

it's the biggest trick in the run game.. go slow to go fast. it doesn't make sense until it smacks you in the face and you're like ....... wtf?

Shoulder/wrist imbalances if you use over-under a lot apparently:

Yeah, I just don't like the idea of deliberately doing a heavy loaded exercise in an asymmetric way, even if I can counteract it by switching up the grip.

Getting used to hook grip while the weights are still low would be sensible -- good shout.

Delts are very sore today, unsurprisingly. Chest more moderate soreness, but I bench pretty narrow so that makes sense. Hamstrings sore, but otherwise I'm clear. Looking forward to tomorrow. Want to get back to nice high reps for Chins and dips.

Remembered to pick up my squat shoes, which is a relief since I am enormously scatterbrained when it comes to things like that, so squats tomorrow should feel nice.

Edit: Might try tracking macros/diet, something I've never done before.

Soreness: minor in delts and hams

Jogged to gym ~1 mile

OHP
Bar x 4
32.5kg x 5,5,6
25kg x 5 [just to check shoulder mobility. the age old Joe-lack of external rotation in left shoulder has returned apace. need to hit this hard to sort it. buying lacrosse ball today and attacking my shoulder. left arm always has to lock out after my right when doing barbell OHP, and this seems like a problem that needs to be fixed. suggestions?]

Chins BW x 3,3,3,2 [after each OHP set]

Squat
Bar x 5
50kg x 3 [paused at at bottom to take one full breath in and out]
62.5kg x 5,5,8 [yay squat shoes, so much more comfortable]
40kg x 10 [pussied out here]

DB Row
20kg x 12,11,10 [lats screaming by end of this]

Squat
40kg x 20 [felt like an arse for giving up on this set earlier so went back and crushed it]

Facepulls
something x 10,8,10 [better form this time, really focussing on getting that external rotation, went up a weight on middle set but didn't feel worthwhile]

DB Curls
6kg x 15
8kg x 9
7kg x 10

Notes

Must Fix Shoulder. Band dislocated, band pullaparts, lacrosse ball rolling, warming up more slowly, more facepulls, more back work, more attentive form when pushing. Otherwise this was a pretty decent workout, given the volume in the workout two days ago. Food is good.

Soreness: moderate in glutes, high in delts, not much else

Have done lots of lacrosse ball massage and stretching through the day. Grease the groove chinups, too.

Diet -

Kcal: 2853
Carbs: 275g
Fat: 124g
Protein: 153g

(these numbers are always kind of fudged via myfitnesspal + me probably forgetting somethings, etc., but seem helpful to track for a bit anyway, just to have a sense of how much i need to eat toget to a certain cal count)

it surprises me that you can actually get a lacrosse ball over there. are people starting to play or are they sold as PT aids?
