Thanks Harrison, yeah it's annoying - looking at the video I shouldn't have stopped there. Elbows were kicking back too much, but the rest felt better
Woo!! Looks better! Hope exam went well also.

My stripy pyjama trousers weigh 7kg more than my black ones, that's the secret to carb nite.

Just saw your flares vid, I'm impressed. I imagine you develop quite a forearm and shoulder pump?
You're looking a lot bigger too!
is this still juggernaught? impressed by your deadlift atm man!
Cheers Jefro - nowhere near flares yet, but a step in the right direction!
Hovering at 79-80kg at the moment, feeling pretty small.
@Harrison - Yep, on the 5s wave week 1. The volume really takes it out of you on low carb, leaves little in the tank for the final set.
Liking the template a lot though, gives a real chance to work on form without going maximal every week. Considering it?
considering so many things! juggernaught looks good. I just want to squat more though : D
I'm also doing juggernaught(wave 8, week 3), loving the high volume...
Cool, yeah it's fun (at times).

Cant believe you weigh the same as me! You are like twice my size! It not even like im fat any-more. Do i just have really dense bones or something.
Haha that's definitely not the case, I think it's because I store a deceptively large amount of fat on my lower body, or generally store more intramuscular fat
