Week 10, Day 3 - StrongLifts 5x5

Squat - 5x5 @ 88.6kg (195lbs)
OH Press - 5x5 @ 38.6kg (85lbs)
Deadlift - 1x5 @ 104.5kg (230lbs)

End of week 10 and happy - strong session today.
Back to matching PBs on the squats and OH press. New PB for DL.

A nice problem to have, but a problem nonetheless - I'm off of to Vienna for 5 days tomorrow and won't have access to a gym. Bugger - keep feeling like it's one step forwards, then due to travel, it's at least a step back again. Only thing I can look forward to is I have a couple of weeks off at home before I start my new job and I can get into the gym during the day when it's nice and quiet, eat well, rest well and focus on pushing through to the end of the twelve weeks.

Right! I'm getting back into this.

A change of job has meant that it is a major ball ache to get to my gym because the rush hour traffic is brutal and I wouldn't be getting home until gone 9pm on gym days. So I'm going to mix up my working hours and get into the office for 7-7:30am which will then allow me to get there far earlier.

Will be interesting to see what the App recommends deloading back to after a couple of months off with only the odd sporadic work out in between.
