Shoulder workout done. First time in the gym for nearly two weeks. The heat really drained my energy, but weather's more tolerable now and despite being tired, I made myself go. Did 6 sets x 10 reps, 2 x 8, and 2 x 7 with 32.5kg shoulder press.
pantonecolors.net/pantone-birt... Does feel like my palette, if a little brighter!
The temperature range across Ireland was wacky yesterday. I wish I lived in the 14°C part of the country!
Post the: Last movie you saw 🎬 Last game you played 🎮 Last show you watched 🖥 Last song you listened to 🎶
Assisted pull-ups and dips done. It was tough today. Could only do 3 sets x 10 reps, 3 x 7, and 4 x 6 for pull-ups. For the dips, I managed 5 x 10, 2 x 7, and 3 x 6.
Heads up for anyone from France/Northern Spain, or travelling there, the models are going nuts with temperatures for next week. Widespread 40s Celsius could happen again.
Back to the gym with shoulders and felt stronger than I expected after the week off. Did 7 sets x 10 reps, then 1 x 7, and 2 x 6 at 32.5kg.
Haha, same. Like these are just the new ones I got besides the ones I already own that are languishing in my library, too!
QTP with a gif of the game you’re currently playing Couldn't find a gif, so here's the Cardassian opening intro for the game Star Trek Birth of the Federation, who I'm currently playing as.
Leg day complete. Found it hard a bit again today, but I got 6 sets x 10 reps and then 4 x 8 at 85kg back squats. Then I did 6 x 10, 2 x 8, and 2 x 7 for 75kg RDLs.
Bench press and barbell rows done. I think I'm still tired from all the travelling the last two days, but I still got 6 sets x 10 reps for bench press at 55kg, then 1 x 8, 1 x 7, and 2 x 6. I got 7 x 10 for 50kg barbell rows, and then 3 x 8.
There was a tornado touchdown an hour's drive north of me near Galway yesterday. It did some minor damage, but it was substantial compared to what Ireland/UK typically get. From @carlowweather.bsky.social.
Name a movie that flopped at the box office but is actually great #FilmSky
Assisted pull-ups and dips done. The heat really made it a struggle today, so I did 6 sets x 10 reps and then 4 x 7 of both exercises.
Shoulder press complete. I did 7 sets x 10 reps at 32.5kg, and then 3 x 8, and all I'll say is thank god for the air con in the gym because I wouldn't have managed otherwise!
