Not a great workout. I drank a lot Tuesday night in Limerick and could feel it when I started deadlifting and I was very tight.
All that aside, my shoulder press has zoomed up. I should be doing 82.5kg x 5 x 5 by xmas.

**** dude nice work on the pressing!

Cheers bro. I think it's got to do me with me doing more rotator cuff assistance work. It's making me shoulders a bit stronger alright. Pity my back is a little niggly again. The drink and fags really ain't good!

Fair play to you Davey,you have come a long way in a few weeks from reading your log.Can I ask what motivates you to go training? Do you have certain goals made that you must achieve? What I am trying to say is do you ever say" i cant be arsed going to the gym today" if so how do you overcome this attitude? All the best.

daveywavey08

Basically, I am not half as disciplined as some of the guys who post here.
I'm actually very bad, and I drink way too much. But lately I've started to train more regularly, and basically the only thing I can say to you is, diet is the most important thing.

Food fuels my mind and fuels my motivation, and deffo is the only way to seriously pack on the mass. Loads and loads of food.
To be honest I actually enjoy lifting, I rarely get days that I say "I can't be arsed toinght, etc, etc" but if it starts to happen you need to take a break for a week or two then hit back into it.
