Week 1 - Monday
Squats 120kg x 5
Shoulder press 28kg x 10
Dips BW sets of 15
bent over rows 80kg x 8
Knee causing grief on 120 squats so didnt go higher.
dips are easy, need to find a weight belt.
28 kg is far too light for 5x5 programme, need to make a decent jump next session to 34kg(?)
Also will go up on rows next time, 90 should be fine.

Training Begins.. again
Well i have started training again and thought i would try to document it.
This probably wont be too detailed as it just gets to be too much documentation, but will be good to monitor basic progress.
So I am training with Hdawg at 37 Degrees in More London. The gym itself is a bit of a Nancy gym with terribly rude staff and somewhat insufficient equipment, but its close by to my current abode and Henry trains there.
He is focusing on weights with some cardio so I will tag along helping out with any tips that may be of use.
My biggest problem of late is appalling discipline and pissing around in the gym. So sessions are in the morning as:
Weights last week were nothing flash. Managed to barely move 100kg on the bench, 12 pull ups, 85kg on front squats & 120kg on squat. Nothing serious as I am just getting back into it.
This week we should be a bit more serious.
Current injuries: none, just a niggle in my knee at the patella tendon insertion to the right tibia. it tends to play up on runs, which is a shame so I have slowed things right done and kept runs of late under 5 miles.
First documented session (hopefully) tomorrow.

- it gets it out the way and you are done for the day
- you have a set time in which to complete the session ( we have to go to work!)
- you feel good for the rest of the day
