Little back pump up

 So I'm still carrying a bit of a lower back injury, something that has plagued me on and off since I was 13 (old rugby injury).


But the grind continues and where there is a will, and there is a will, then there is a way, and there is a way!


So deads in light weight and band supplements with a final pump up with 5 sets of 10reps on chins.


For a man who weighs 130kg I must admit I am pleased with how well I am able to handle chins.


Hopefully my injuries will heal soon, as I feel just a lack of power on deads, now struggling with weights 170kg-200kg, weights that should be like nothing for me, but active rest will hopefully speed up my healing and maintain strength.

Bench Press Workout - 4th may 2021

 Been painting the gym for the last 4days straight, and when your nakkered and aching, bench press is always there to catch you lol


A very easy and simple workout on bench today as I'm completely drained from the last few days, my body was screaming 😱 GET OF THE WEIGHTS YOU WEE EEJIT 😱 But the grind continues and those who fall behind are left behind.


So an easy plqyaround to start with on heavy-ish weights


Warming up on 90kg, then 110kg


Before doing 


120kg, 130kg and 140kg to finish


Then I took it down and did some volume on 120kg for reps, but this weight didn't feel good. I was doing short reps of the chest to increase the burn and focus on explosive power..... but meh was too tired to make anything of it, so went down to 90kg instead and did 3 volume sets and 1 set of slow positives and negatives 


Then a quick blast on 70kg proved how nakkered I was as I hardly did any.


So overall, not much, but something is always better than nothing

Sumo Wrestler Hibikiryu Dead


 Sumo wrestler Hibikiryu has now died from his injuries . I covered his paralysis from a broken neck a month ago, but so so sad to hear this warrior has died now. May he rest in peace and forever be remembered 


In this video we see the sad moment where hibikiryu fell and did not get up. at first the officials believed him to be unconscious, but hibikiryu was conscious the whole time but unable to move from the neck down. 


terrifying and I can only hope the Doctors and Nurses looking after him can do something for him regards recovery, at the moment good news looks unlikely but we can only hope


It's just been announced (29th April 2021)that hibikiryu has died from his injuries, at the age of 28years. Such a sad moment. May this warrior rest in peace and his death not be in vain

Training for VALHALLA bench press 26th April 2021

 Started with a little playaround on heavier weights today on bench. Got to 150kg 330lb and was well pleased as I have another 7-8months to peak, so if I'm doing 150kg now in my light phase I may be able to push for 180kg 400lb at the end of the year! But then playtime was Iver and it was time to do some work so stripped the bar down to 120kg 265lb. I wanted to start my volume work by doing super strict reps. Overly strict tbh and very controlled to the point of turning into a negative lift as well as the lift proper. Did this on 120kg, 110kg and 100kg. Then I wanted to work the explosion and speed of the movement off the chest, to put as much tension into the pecs as poss for maximum muscle growth. These are a much easier way to lift than compared to the prior few sets but help work your body in a different way. So ended up doing high volume sets on 90kg, 80kg and 70kg My back and shoulder are nearly healed following a couple of injuries that have come off the aftermath of my world record, so hopefully soon be back into the rhythm with squat and deadlift also #Pectastic Powerlifting corporationπŸ‹️‍♂️ and #Peczilla Power πŸ’ͺ Present #PECASAURUS the #EighthWonderOfTheworld APPROVED πŸ¦–πŸ¦–πŸ¦– media πŸ’£πŸ’£ #BippityBoppityBOOM πŸ’£πŸ’£ πŸ‹#EasyPeasy πŸ‹ #LemonSqueezy πŸ‹ #BeastModeActivated 🍻🍺#valhalla 🍺🍻 #valhallaawaits #trainingforvalhalla  #valhallagym #valhallafitness πŸ’ͺ #strong πŸ’ͺ #vikingpower #vikingstrength #oldmandtrength ☢πŸ‘Ύ #monster πŸ‘Ύ☢#powerlifting #powerlifter πŸ‹️‍♂️ #weightlifting πŸ‹️‍♂️#gainz πŸ’ͺπŸ¦– #musclemonster πŸ’ͺπŸ¦–  #fitnessmotivation #swoll πŸ‘Ή #beastmode πŸ‘Ή #liftheavyshit #doyouevenlift #neversettle  #liftheavy πŸ‹️‍♂️πŸ‹️‍♂️πŸ¦–πŸ¦–πŸ‹️‍♂️πŸ‹️‍♂️
