Just spent some wonderful days backpacking and wild camping, along the Pennine Way to Keld; westwards to Nine Standard; along the Tan Hiil to Kirkstone Inn Over The Hill route as far as Cautley; and then a circuit of the Hows. Cracking weather! Glorious bivvys on the tops.
Dumbbell bicep curls. 2 X 12.5 kg. Simultaneous lifting with both arms. 1 min break between sets. Curl Reps were to failure, per set.
19 - 13 - 11 - 9 - 10 - 9 - 7 - 8
Thanks for minding the thread Mike.
Still waiting for my post on the 'jab' thread to be posted. Seems it's been moderated out...for posing some questions - again!

I have spent a while opening a door with a brocken lock - the rotating bit had detached from the bit that sticks into the metal bracket in the door frame. I eventually managed to break the bracket by bending it back and forth until metal fatigue set in. Hard work!
Playing safe (again)
