    ^--Cheers Off Road. Just been microloading them by 0.5kg (1.1 lbs) whenever I can. BW+100 lbs for 8 reps is a milestone that I'm definitely looking forward to.

    I am still so impressed with those bent over rows! Your Rows are almost as much as your squats!

    Doing very well, surely you are able to go past the 265 bench mark now - props on the overall training.

    Thanks Off Road. 93's for 12 reps was actually an unexpected PR for my incline press.

    I am still so impressed with those bent over rows! Your Rows are almost as much as your squats!
    Cheers hug dog. I'm not really sure whether I should be proud of my rows or ashamed of my squats, lol. Ashamed of my squats I think

    Doing very well, surely you are able to go past the 265 bench mark now - props on the overall training.
    Thanks CoCoa. Definitely hoping to move past 265 very soon.

    Those rows are pretty preposterous, Tom.
    Beastly!
    Thanks bloodybob.
