Hi Chris,
Fully understand and agree with what your saying. I have the personal trainers there keep an eye on me for going wrong and they know im willing to pay them for advice where required and they seem to think im doing everything ok so far, although thats not to say there isnt plenty to learn from people more focused on resistance training than them.

Im not pushing with Ego, im pushing with myself, if i feel i can do thre sets of 10 im going heavier till i can only do 8 and i find, almost without fail, that every week i can do a little bit more. Surely, that suggests i am starting to gain muscle and what im doing is ok?

Bu sheer coincidence its leg day again when im writing this, so il paste in tonights workout, and again, ive improved over last wednesday...

Wednesday = Legs day:
Pedal Bike (warm-up)
10mins on level 6 at 90 - 100 rpm.

60kg x10 2sets
70kg x10 2sets
80kg x10 2sets
90kg x10 2sets


Abductors
65kg x10 2sets
75kg x10 2sets
85kg x10 2set

70kg x8 2sets

Calve press. On Horizontal leg press:
60kg x10 2sets
80kg x10 2sets
90kg x10 2sets
100kg x10 2sets

Leg press. Horizontal:

80kg x8 2sets
90kg x8 2sets
100kg x8 2sets

Bare in mind that my sets are more extensive than most would like as im finishing last weeks routine and finding i can do yet more so im carrying on to failure. I never leave an excersize until ive failed at it.

Any tips or critiscism? All welcome as always, im here to learn
