You're not a million miles away mate. A good structured program and some consistency and you'll be there before you know it.

Nice solid numbers, keep it up. I am interested to see what your nutrition is like. Have you posted it before?

Thanks mate!

Nah, I haven't. I don't follow any diet or proper training programme to be honest. I just train how I want and I eat pretty much what I want now. When my body fat goes up I just cut back a bit.

That does not seem fair to me that because the class was on you had to give up the rack. Nonetheless good solid numbers. Can I ask why do you do Leg extension first. Is it to warm up or pre Exhaust?

No special reason really. Just do them while I'm waiting for a rack usually, although it does help get in a little more volume.
