Missed Friday's workout. Mondays' workout was post-poned until today. Did: Squat: 70KG. I repeated this from last Wednesday because I felt my balance was going on to the ball of my foot too much. I also struggled on the last x2 reps of my final set when I had improved my technique. Today, I felt as though my balance was improved. I still felt as though it rolled forward onto to the ball of my foot, but I also feel as though I kept my heel on the ground, which I am happy about and will consider it a pass. I will proceed to 72.5 KG next work out (Thursday) I also need to get weight lifting shoes. I will get chucks initially and look to get some serious weightlifting shoes in the first quarter of 2013. Bench I did 40KG. It felt heavy but I only needed to rest a few mins between sets. Next workout 42.5 DL: Did 102.5 Last rep felt tough. Looking forward to 105! Next workout is Thursday, targets are: Squat 72.5 Press: 32.5 DL: 105. Also need to buy microweights.

Todays workout

Wednesday 21st Nov. Squatted 70KG. I lost my balance a little coming out of the bottom. I have a habit where I roll my balance forward to the front of my foot, toward my toes as I lift off. I think I like to try use the momentum here. I am going to read up on tips to prevent this. I bench pressed 35KG. I did not do deadlifts today. Will try for 105 on Friday.

Enjoying that feeling on a day after you've worked out, and it's like 'it feels good to have used my body today'

workout

Missed my Friday workout as I had a night out on thursday which impacted my sleeping schedule. Today - Monay, 19 Nov I did: 67.5KG squat 30KG overhead press 100KG Deadlift.

I've spent much of my time today thinking about my next workout. Since I injured my hand, and have moved to the UK, my return to progress has been slow. However, I've been here for approximately 10 weeks now, and am getting into the rhythm of things again. Last workout on Wednesday, 14th November I squatted 65KG and Deadlifted 95. Both were reasonably tough, but still acheivable. I am excited about the prospect of getting my squat to 70KG and my DL to 100KG. I try to DL 100 tomorrow, and to squat 70 on Monday.
