Fatigue is def a factor now, but im still progressing thankfully. I couldn't get the 32.5kg dbs up lol. is there a trick to it? im doing a kick thing but i still cant start the set. i feel like if i could start the set i'd get at least a couple of reps but since i cant, it's fail. Do ppl get spotted into place on this or what? im just too weak? is there an exercise i can do to improve my 0th rep?

I was actually doing a similar thing recently. Mine was two things. No program and no motivation. I got a shot in the arm though recently. My wife asked me what my max deadlift was. She trains crossfit and is starting to get an idea of what actual strong people can lift these days. I told her it was 180 and, I kid you not, she was like "oh....I thought it was more like 200" haha. Part of me was thinking 180 is good (which it is) but the other part of me was thinking what I was capable of if I actually put in some consistent long term effort.

Yes!! Those are the kinds of motivation you need to push to the next level. I haven't got anything like that atm, i used to train to become the rec league Lebron but that seems an eternity ago now.

You need to get back on it mate. You're thinking about your lack of progress but think about what you are capable of and what you can still get after.

been doing this week, so far so good. not sure how long i can keep it up but it feels do-able, if difficult. i guess i got a little too comfortable, staying out of that 'very uncomfortable' place you need to be to push to the next level. i dont know if im ready for all that yet, but gradually ramping it up, maybe i can get there again. thanks for the motivation!

Notes:
This was a rough session as expected because my last proper workout was 2 days ago and given the recent discussion i thought to try pushing the issue.

i should make a note here that today i weighed 91kg in the gym. this is obviously cause for concern given my history. it's not like i havent started a new me thing every monday, 1st of hte month, birthday etc, i just dont have the follow through anymore. kind of demotivated by lack of progress over the last 18 months.

assistance to bench day, was pretty good, upper body is starting to fill out a little. its starting to get warmer so will be looking at adding running and sprinting to the mix once the hips feel good.
