    I decided for some added motivation to do a log. Last year I weighed in at 125kg at 6ft 1. I got my weight down to 100kg and I have been hovering around 100-105kg for the past 6 months. I have been working in the gym on a 5x5 program and getting ready for the new rugby season, so doing a lot of cardio and pre-season training. I haven't played for over 3 years now. I have been asking for advice on what I should do program wise and am looking into changing my program perhaps.

    Anyway today;

    Squat -
    Warmup 5xbar & 5x70kg

    5x95kg
    5x95kg
    5x95kg
    5x95kg
    5x95kg

    Bench -
    Warmup 5x40kg
    5x55kg
    5x55kg
    5x55kg
    5x55kg
    5x55kg

    Row - Recently added this in so just gauging weights to use and start increasing each session by 2.5kg.
    Warmup 5xbar

    5x30kg
    5x30kg
    5x30kg
    5x30kg
    5x30kg - bit too light, done some extra reps and felt too comfortable.

    3x12 weighted situps with 7kg ball.

    Wed;

    Sqaut/Incline/ & Deadlift - Going to add Milt Press as well. Or perhaps swap for Incline.

    Anyway lets see how my progression gets on (it has been going well up to this point). Also my routine should be changing soon.

    Thanks, I hope it helps me a bit more, as already have the motivation from what I came from to now, but sometimes lately I've slipped up and ate garbage all weekend with alcohol!

    Squats, love them, my strongest lift, although I can see my bench hitting 70 easily soon.

    Exactly my aim, I was doing 3x8 110kg at one point, just getting it gradually back up and then up to 150kg. Aye easy to slip at this time of year, too many 21sts and stuff for me!
