    Deadlift
    warmup.
    90kg 1x5

    Press:
    47,5kg 3x5 – technique felt better today. Still have to better at keeping my core tight. Last rep was a grinder.

    Rows:
    47,5kg 3x5 – meh, easy

    Planks:
    +7.5kg 30sek x 3

    05.03.2013
    Deadlift: warmup. 92,5kg 1x5 - easy.
    Press: warmup. 50kg x 4, 50kg x3 50kg x3 – last rep on last set had a little push press over it.
    Rows: 50kg 2x5, 1x7 – no idea why I did 7 instead of 5 on the last set.
    Planks: 7.5kg 40sek x 3
    notes: can’t wait till I can squat again.

    07.03.2013
    Press: Warmup. 50kg 3x4 – Progress. I have to warm up better, shoulders felt a little creaky.
    Deadlift: Warmup. 95kg 1x5
    Rows: 52,5kg 3x5 – did six reps on the second set, just because.
    Planks: + 7.5kg 60sek x 3 – time to up the weight. Did two ab-rollouts just to see if I could. I used to not be able to do 1, and those 2 were allright, could defiantly have done more, so that’s progress. Progress is good.

    09.03.2013.
    5 min general warm up.
    Deadlift: 97,5kg 1x5 – totally unfocused, ended up pulling with my back way too much. I have to use my glutes more.
    Press: 50kg 3x2 – Wut? Pretty sure the bar I used before wasn’t a 20 kilo the bar. The bar I’m using now is a pendlay, so that’s nice.
    Rows: 55kg 3x5
    Planks: +10kg 30sek x 3 – did 5 ab rollouts after just because.
    Facepulls: 18kg 3x10 – 9kg on each hand = 18kg. Will try to Rear delt work each time im in the gym.
    Notes: Felt like **** today! Can’t wait till summer where I start at the Oly gym.
