DB Preacher Curls – 2 x 10 x 13.5kgMuch fresher here having reduced the volume of other work during the week. Arms are completely spent, managed to add 1/2 an inch to them and 3/8 inch to my forearms, though it’s possible after a week of rest they’ll grow more as was the case with my pullups & pushups workout. The first 4 weeks were fine but by the end I was feeling the cumulative effect of all the training and it was harder to force myself to go to the gym.

Hip Thrust – 8,7,7,6 x 105kg

Conditioning (5 mountain climbers, 1 burpee x 25) – 8 mins 52 secsUpped a few sets of power cleans, good to challenge myself. Wore wrist straps for that as I was trying hook grip without much success. I want to transition to fewer total sets of deadlifts, even with the hex bar, as most programs use 1 maximal top set to save the lower and mid back from fatiguing.
