    Didn't do assistance, was at a music festival over the weekend, and 3 nights of being in mosh pits, with shit food takes its toll Wink

    Also got to meet rammstein, and shook Till's hand - One epic weekend :p

    Will do the back assistance when I do chest etc tomorrow, should work out alright.

    To be fair, when I was running around Cardiff in my morphsuit on oh-so-many drunken nights, I didn't wear any footwear cos that just spoils the whole effect.

    Points for the mankinis though, I always wore women's underwear on top.

    Deadlift Assistance

    Rack pulls:
    160kg x 5
    170kg x 3
    180kg x 3
    190kg x 2
    200kg x 3

    Surprisingly easy as well - was only planning on doing around 170 - 180kg but its the last time of going heavy before the comp, so I thought fuck it and just went for it :p

    Shrugs:
    85kg x 3 x 10

    Kroc Rows:

    left hand: 30kg x 20
    Right hand 30kg x 20

    Good day today, was one of those days where everything seems to feel easier :p
