No lifting today. Needed a rest. Hiking though. Heading up to Snowdon summit for some cardio. Should take 4-5 hours overall. Most will be in the dark so have head torch etc. packed. Hoping the weather/visibility ain’t too bad.

14th March
Cardio:
60 minute cycle - Caught up in a hail storm on the way back which was fun. The things were huge and coming down hard, like legit stinging my face. Keep in mind it was sunny when I left the house not long before.

Machine press 3 x 6-8 - 142.5KG
Wide-grip...
Got a little feeder/pump session in with some circuit work to help burn some extra calories. Used a hotel gym so I could use their sauna/steam. The gym itself was like a sauna and I was sweating buckets with the small amount of training I did. Made me super vascular during training. Not a look...

10 x Ski ERG intervals - it’s pissing it down outside so no cycling today, sadly. More cardio due later.

Viking press 3 x 6-8 - Top set was a PR of stack (100KG) for 6, but I’m still new to this machine so I won’t read into it too much.

12th March

Standing single leg curl 3 x 8-12
Calf raise...
Had a nice night. A few drinks again and got to sleep kind of late but nothing too crazy. Decided to have a day off training today but still went and used the pool/steam room/sauna and burned some calories on my bike. Feeling fresh now and think a day off lifting will do me some good as I’ve...
Once again, slightly off-plan. Finished up the week with a full back day (which I missed yesterday), so essentially split the usual chest & back in to two sessions, allowing for higher volume on each over the 2 days. Was tempted to train legs but there’s a good chance I’ll be out on a hike...
I hit a few back exercises in my evening session yesterday so I dedicated today’s training purely to chest rather than the scheduled chest and back session. Was training with a friend who’s in to higher volume so did more sets/exercises than I usually would. A lot of it was probably junk...
Let’s pick it back up. I have more free time at the moment so can easily cross-post.

Had one kit of GH sat around not being used so have been using 5IU M-F for 3 weeks or so. Not relying on it and not fussed if I continue using it or not...
