Default Heavy Lifting Log

I am not new to logging my workouts on forums but many will find my lifting to be extreme, I do not want to intimidate anybody so I will not post my weights initially while I see how well I fit into this forum and work out how active the support is here (I am looking for a forum where I am not talking to myself most of the time)

My basic Stats

Female
Age: 40
Weight: Fluctuating between 89 - 93 kg
Goals: Improve bodyfat %, drop to competition weight of just under 84 kg, Break Australian Masters Bench Press Record in competition, not just in the gym.
Profession: Coach/Sports Trainer also qualified PT but not actively working as such.
Diet: Targeted Keto Diet


Today was a light exercise day

Morning

10 Minute walk
100 calf raises
5 X 10 380° Twist Jumps
7 X 10 Clap Pushups, 1 X 5 Clap Pushups
5 X 10 Surf Getups
5 X 40 DB Woodchops
10 Minute walk


Afternoon

Rushfit cardio DVD

my training has lacked consistency, and as hard as I push myself I need more so next Wednesday I am sitting down with a friend/one of my coaches with the target being to break the bench record in 6-12 months time. Up until now it has felt like my head was not in the right place. It may also mean that I have to do a deload before pushing to build up again.
