LAZY saturday session. I was glad to not be using my back for anything today. It seems like it's getting blasted beyond recovery each week. Those 2 reps of 50 OHP were something I've been close to doing for several weeks. I'm still not progressing very fast here (prolly coz I keep wanting to pick up a 50) but I am nonetheless progressing.

*Ash hopped off with maybe 5 meters left to go. Pretty sure he wasn't doing me a favour, I was just moving too slow for him and he got bored. I really hate Ash. We tell people that we just act like we don't like each other, but really, I truly, deeply hate him. And he knows it.

FINISHED with GMs tonight just to feel more like I'd done something properly strenuous. I missed last night's session, deciding another 24 hours rest and recovery would be a good idea.

I'm walking a fine line here. My right knee, and left forearm and pec now have pains and twinges from the constant near-maximal pulling and pressing. I've been advised I have to tone down my loading and train to max only once per week. For everything. 

This means shit's gonna get even more boring, I'm pretty sure; when I am in the gym of a weeknight, I want it to be worthwhile.
