Cheers Big man Though I've discovered the hard way that if an exercise has "Romanian" or "Russian" in its name it will generally hurt!!

Indeed! We did 21 second squats today. 10 seconds lowering into the squat. Hold at the bottom for 10 seconds and power up for 1. Ouch!!!!! Good though

Pain: "Weakness leaving the body"
My strength is going through the roof. Benching over 150kg, Squats I've managed 180 for 3 with ease (posted it on FB), and DL I pulled up 220kg a couple of times as if it were nothing. I'm feeling beastly! Getting there anyway - might match the face soon! It took 5 people to get me on the ground in rugby today, and I scored a blinding try (somewhat winded the poor ol' full back ) and was just beastly. We lost, but not for lack of trying. I'm almost hulk-like.

Some great lifts there will
I won't list mine as they're **** I'm steadily improving week by week though so hope to be getting somewhere respectable in a couple of months time.

Cool - really isolates them then. That's what 1/5th of your bodyweight? Which is pretty impressive tbh.
