    EMOM press-ups routine. 11 reps (floor to lock to floor) press-ups, every minute, for 10 minutes.

    Secs remaining for each of the 10X 1 min sets.

    43 - 42 - 42 - 43 - 43 - 42 - 41 - 39 - 33 - 33.

    This morning, while walking through the byre where the pull-up bar is sited, as sometimes is the way, I just 'had-a-go'. Today I managed to churn out 6 pull-ups and some 15 mins later, 8 chin-ups, while walking back through again. Given that I could barely manage 1 pull-up a few months ago - I'll take that. New target - 10 of each.

    This is known as "greasing the groove" in strength training circles.... a lot of people will have one located in their house on a door frame, and do a couple of pullups every time they go through the door.

    Another half-hearted push session for me, straight after a tough hill rep session.

    Bench Press
    5 x 15 @ 40kg

    Shoulder Press
    6 x 15 @ 20kg (ie just lifting the olympic bar with no weight on it at all)

    Seated chest press
    4 x 15 @ 27.5kg
