He'll convert them for you from Kg's just like I do, we're kind like that over here in the UK
I can multiply by 2.2 like most people can count, haha
Haha exactly, plus converting to lbs makes the number higher

I have the 1,000 reply in your thread
Haha bet you to it
Nice one, you get some good sex?

Haha, we were so drunk on the wedding night the sex actually came in the early hours of the next day when we finally got to bed. She was practically paralytic but at least that meant she let me shag her as hard as I liked in all the positions that usually hurt her too much to even attempt so I was happy.
It was wild Monkey sex basically, if we'd filmed that I could make a mint on the internet
It was weird, I was so drunk I didn't have much feeling in my ****, I had no problem getting it up but I thought I'd never be able to 'finish' as there wasn't really any sensation.
I was throwing up Champagne throughout the next morning though
Yesterday: Lower
Squats
1x20 (143lbs)
1x15 (165lbs)
1x10 (187lbs)
Nice, no pain, slight lower back tightness but i'm ok. I'm squatting paralell, since i've been out of squatting for so long even this pushed me. Enjoyed it though! Putting it up every week. I want all 3 sets well over 200lbs soon enough.
Seated Leg Press
1x20 (352lbs)
1x15 (440lbs)
1x10 (506lbs)
Finished with Leg Curls & Calf Raises.
Rest day tonight, although i haven't yet decided whether i'm going to do a bit of cardio.

I think i f**ked it up deadlifting with sh1t form, and squatting with major lower back rounding.
My lower back still rounds but not quite as much. So i'm starting low with the weight and working up lol.
It must have been about 6 months or so now, the main rehabilitation was rest from squats & DL's lol, but i did look into a few dynamic stretches to help minimise lower back rounding, however i stopped doing them and now i'm just going to slowly go up in weight and see how i go!
Hows your squatting now?
I've also been away from the gym for a while so who knows. I've been doing more split squats and bulgarians recently as well and very little low rep stuff so not sure where I'm at. Hopefully it won't be long before I break through the 500 barrier.
I was watching the 2008 UK's stongest man yesterday and seen just how much work I need to do to get really strong
