Weight: 89.2kg

The Workout: 50m

High bar back squat 3x10 (2min rest)

Warmup felt tough and felt tight in the hole, but spent some more time at the bottom streching out. Then on to 70kg for a few, then 80 then onto the working sets:

Set 1. 90kg
Set 2. 90kg
Set 3. 90kg

90kg is starting to feel comfortable so next week will push up to 95kg.

Flat bench 4x10 (2min rest)

After last session the last few reps on the last set were tough but manged all 10 reps this time the last set felt great.

Set 1. 70kg
Set 2. 70kg
Set 3. 70kg
Set 4. 70kg

Didn't feel much of a struggle on the last set and could probably get another rep or two in so next week deffo moving to 72.5kg.

Barbell row 3x10 (2min rest)

Wanted to get a good strech at the bottom this time round so really got the bar as low to the ground while maintaining a tight back and core.

Set 1. 70kg
Set 2. 70kg
Set 3. 70kg

Seated Overhead press 3x10 (2min rest)

Decided to split this up from the curls and not super set them and managed more weight than last time so thats a good sign.

Set 1. 35kg
Set 2. 37.5kg
Set 3. 37.5kg

Barbell curl 3x10 (2min rest)

Curls to finish , was nice to break this up from the OHP , meant I could concentrate more on the curls and not just moving the weight.

Set 1. 35kg
Set 2. 35kg
Set 3. 35kg

Thoughts

Practice makes perfect - Unknown

This saying is a good one but also I feel its a bit wrong. If I practiced something wrong 1000 times it doesn't make it perfect it means I can do that 1 thing wong all the time.

I think 'Practice makes automatic' is a better saying, or 'Perfect practice makes perfect'

This can come back to working out as well, If we take the deadlift for example, if someone has never done it before and practices bad form for 1000 reps , they will get really good ad bad form deadlifts. The other side of the coin is even if i do 1000 reps with really good form but keep at the same weight I will get really good at lifting that weight but without adding weight we won't progress.
