    AWWW what sweet doggies.
    So east central UK, then? looks like there are interesting sights.

    Yesterday:
    Morning
    5 minutes arm crank warmup
    Started to do seated rows but found a sore spot between my bicep and tricep, on the inner side of the elbow.
    Did close-grip lat pulldowns with no problem. 1 x 15 @ 50 lb, 3 x 10 @ 60 lb, 1 x 5 @ 70 lb

    Helloooo
    Yesterday I did...
    67.5kg 5x5 on the squat, with 26kg dB squats in between sets
    35kg on the bench press with leg raises in between
    42.5kg row with 8kg bd flys in between.
    I also did a 45 minute spinning class. Yesterday was hard! :)

    Managed to go up to 70kg on the squat today. Very pleased with that. Did the normal 5x5
    25kg 5x5 overhead press, I find this the hardest of all the weights, my shoulders seem to be my weakest part.
    And I dropped down to 65kg o the deadlift and did 10 reps.
    I did a few active recovery moves in between too.

    Rest day tomorrow, definitely ready for it this week x
