Pullups: 4 Just waiting for the rack to free up

Squat: 1x8 @40

1x8 @60

3x5 @72.5

Dead: 1x7 @80

1x5 @110

1x5 @115 Took chalk with me, didn't need it, gym now has a slightly newer bar with much better knurling.

(I shouldn't need it at this weight anyway)

Row: 1x8 @45

3x5 @55

Dips: 8,6,5 I had my nokia brick in my pocket, so does this count as weighted?

Bit tired today so felt buggered and form probably wasn't perfect, but still hit all my targets.

Used a little bit of chalk on deads because my hands were sweating, makes a massive difference :)

Thanks, will be happy when I get to 100kg (one of my first mini goals).

Hows squatting go for you with the bar resting on your back?

cool, wont be too far off

yeah squats hurt my injury the most; it's the bar that is stopping me getting more reps out atm... legs could easily keep going

Had a super shit session today, something went dodgey with my hip when I was warming up for deads. So unloaded the bar and went home.

I would have stayed and done the other exercises but I could barely unload the bar it hurt that bad. Was fine about 5 mins after I got home haha

Anyway physio tomorrow.

Dead: 1x5 @90

1x5 @110

Dan: Nothing major, just ongoing issues, the hip thing was a first though.

Leesh: I wanted to go back to the gym as soon as I got home haha hate leaving half way through, feels like a waste even though I know it was the right thing to do.

Saw the physio today, mostly good news. No squatting for a couple weeks though :( just lunges and other stuff that I need to do. I don't mind doing lunges anyway they can be pretty brutal haha

He wants me to add in bench press and just go light with higher reps plus some more shoulder specific rehab stuff. He said my shoulder should be just about fine by the time I finish this.

I'll be re structuring my program over the next few days so I can get everything in, my training style will have to change a bit too.

Have started doing lunges and bench with a slightly higher volume than everything else as per physios request.

Not sure if I need to talk to someone about my program as I think its fairly balanced even though its a bit bastardised.

I'm just replacing squats with lunges for a few weeks and will be alternating bench and mp.

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
