Just seen that rob has left the forum, ah man I can kinda see why it's so dead around here these days I still stay in touch with chris (esqinci) and Jaime (broccoli n beans) on Instagram, Jaime posts a lot of training vids which is cool. And I'm friends with Yash (cpt fit) on Facebook he's a bloody aeroplane pilot!!! Haha. God knows what happened to James (M forklift) he just kinda disappeared one day lol. Il still keep a log on here for a while at least though mate, I make journals on paper and lose them so I need this haha
  9. It's been a pleasure rob, always nice chatting to you! All the best my friend
  10. Where did you go on holiday Mike?? I recently had a pretty awful stomach bug and the worst thing was not being able to get to the gym, you must have had withdrawals right?

Tried the 120kg stone a few times but couldn't get it. 100kg stone on low platform 100kg stone on low platform 100kg stone on second platform pb! Could have gone a platform higher I reckon but at this point my forearms were grazed and cut up.
