    Nationals

    :( im not going to be attending nationals. just went to book the friday before hand off to make the 5.5 hr trek up to belfast. My manager has refused. There is some major network upgrade work going on that week part of the prep if me being sent to london the week before..so i would miss my last week of training and be left with the option of travelling to belfast very late friday night or god forbid saturday morning and this just doesnt appeal to me.

    These projects are a great opp for me in my career and i have to give them my 100% focus over everything else....

    with this news i think im going to step back from the power lifting style training and do some BB style training for a while my weight loss is going well and id like to give some different training a go.

    That sucks man. I suppose being busy with work is something a lot of people would kill for at the moment so the way I see it I can't complain if work gets in the way either.

    For your own peace of mind dude you should have your back looked at. I don't know if you know any medical professional that you trust, but if not find someone who comes recommended and have them look at it. might be something simple like kev's non firing glutes, might be something more, but I unfortunately know that you don't want to leave a dodgy back to get worse. just my own opinion.

    That's the Russian way of doing things...

    Think about it this way....

    He did the weight by 8 reps, 3 times.

    Instead of usual 3 sets of 8 reps.
