"The path is made by walking it..." Jan's log

[slowmotion]

Hi all, so I'll be continuing my log here I guess, since the future over at Exodus is .... uncertain?
I'm a grumpy old geezer, 63 years old, and I have been lifting since 2015 or so.
Body weight right now is about 95 kg, down from 125 kg. The plan is to get below 90 kg eventually.

So yesterday I did:

Squat:
20 kg x 5 x 5
50 x 5
70 x 5
90 x 4
107.5 x 3
120 x 2
125 x 1
130 x 1
135 x 1
140 kg x 1r x 3s
125 kg x 2r x 3s
2 minutes rest.

Bench:
20 kg x 5 x 2
40 x 5
55 x 5
65 x 5
75 x 4
80 x 3
85 x 2
90 x 2
95 kg x 1
100 kg x 1
95 kg x 1
85 kg x 2r x 3s
2 minutes rest.

Rows:
50 kg x 5
70 kg x 5r x 4s
2 min rest.
