Unfortunately Google is yet to provide detailed maps of some Australian locations (despite Google Maps being created by a Sydney-based developer); these will be added as they become available.

Chalk ball.

For the rack pulls I decided to try out John's suggestion and use chalk - hoping that my back would call Time before my grip did. This seemed to make a bit of a difference (at least the white handprints on everything looked cool), and I took it 20kg up from last time before calling it a day. As tempting as it was to max out, I'll try to stick to 10RMs during this phase.

Finally got a chance to catch up on sleep (7.5 hours, which is great compared with the 4-5 I usually get) and it certainly made a difference this morning. Looking over Rob's recent squat/rack pull workout inspired me to do the same - including the PRs.

The squats were once again of the bottom-up variety, with a few sets of regular free squats beforehand to warm up a bit. Worked up to a new 10RM for these before realising I was dangerously close to vomit terrritory.

When I first created this site it was necessary to use several separate blogs (all under a single umbrella), in order to attain the desired level of detail. Recent versions of Movable Type have enabled me to consolidate this into a single blog - much faster and easier to maintain. It was not until this weekend that I finally had a chance to do this consolidation.

If you notice anything that isn't working quite the way you'd expect, please let me know.

Whilst doing a little research this morning I stumbled across an old (well, October 2004) post by Kris - 'The forgotten lifts'. Appropriately - though perhaps unfortunately - I'd forgotten about the sites mentioned, all of which are worthy of a look whenever you get tired of the same lifts. Plenty of 'oldies but goodies' amongst these gems.
