Chest - Week 1

Going to reset the numbering everytime I deload so it won't go up to too high a number.

Bench Press - 55kg
888
Felt a little heavy  but managed all sets without any help. Will probably need spotter for mental support next time.

Squats - 70kg
666
Struggled with the last few reps, but could be because I haven't squatted so heavy in a while. I decided to cut down on Squat reps because don't think going high reps helped much. Will up to 72.5

Inclined Bench - 42.5
886
Oh dear, failed cos my triceps didn't feel strong enough to push, and I didn't have a spotter, so I just stopped after 6. Will stay at this weight, and try to do it with a spotter on the last set next time.

Calf raise - 55kg
888

Inclined DB Bench - 20kg
888
Yay! the last rep was a real grind though. Will consider upping to 22.5 or just staying at this weight and slow down the movement to get maximum stretch/contraction on my chest

Using a new system of doing straight sets instead of progressively loading. let's see if this is better.
