Friday 25th June

Start of actually getting back into things properly today. Did a couple of sessions last week but was pretty lazy about it and decided to be laid back about taking a break.
So I hit the gym and did my legs/chest routine, very happy with how it went.

Squats 110x10/115x8/120x6 - Only a slight increase on the squats since it was over a week from doing them the last time, and a few weeks before that. Over the next couple of weeks I expect my strength to really shoot up quickly as my body gets used to lifting again and not having a calorie deficit.

Bench 70x10/75x8/80x6 - Really happy with bench today, feeling easier and looking to go up decently soon as with the squats.

Lunges 60x8/60x8 - 10kg increase from last session. Felt pretty good, but didn't take enough rest between sets, so my 2nd was very shaky.

Incline dumbell bench 25x8/25x8 - Same weight as last session, still feeling quite hard.

Adductor swings - Did 2 sets, have to check the weight next time. Using this as an assistance exercise to strengthen my squats.

Bent over rows 70x10/75x8/75x6 - Used the smith machine for these, pretty happy with it but they weren't easy. Probably increase slowly on them

Wide v bar dips - 2 x 8 reps

Inverted crunches
