If I ever have to do all my training in a public gym again, if I need to, I will just buy a safety squat or Duffalo bar and keep it at the gym. The difference it makes for my shoulders makes it a no-brainer.
Legs this morning
Squat warm up then 90kg 7x3
95kg 2x3 will stay at 90 and do 6x4 next
Leg press 170kg 3x8
Calf raises 160kg 3x10
Squats felt OK but top if spine is bruised and skin missing where bar was resting, think I need to look at positioning and form again maybe in leaning too far forward.

2 negatives 50kg pull downs x8
Face pulls 20kg 3x10
Db row 30kg 3x10
Cg seated row 50kg 3x12 slow reps
Barbell curls to hammer grip bar curls
Did some Cg bench with 40kg at end
Pull ups was really 4 then an almost rep for 5th, 5 full reps next time!
Will start doing more Cg bench press as I feel my triceps are the weak point in Ohp and bench.
Been doing a lot of drilling into rsj’s at work, got really bad pain in my right wrist and shoulder. Thinking about it, im in a prone position on steps or a hop up, pressing into a static load with vibtations. I’ve had tendon problems in the past which cortisol shots have solved. I’m thinking of dropping squats for a few weeks to see if this eases the shoulder discomfort.
Not a huge difference, belly looks a tad smaller in today’s (left photo) to the one a month ago.
Next goal 196 by 3rd April.
Just got to keep chipping away at it mate. Consistency and effort are all that count. Good work.

With the calluses I use my wife’s device she uses for hard skin on her foot. It’s like a spinning file. I trim any dead skin with scissors and use the file to wear them down so they don’t split like yours just did. Looks like this.
