weights is definitely a win some lose some situation, linear progression is definitely not the case. its a real awkward hobby sometimes. I'm currently on the way back up with some lifts as i too a long time off over summer.
im kinda the opposite to most of you guys in that i lift weights more than cycle. cycling tends to be on basis of if i fancy it or not where the gym is more my staple. been cool having a read up about peoples progress.

I understand your pain. I’ve got close to PBs and due to injury have dropped a long way back. Persistence is the only way.
I now describe weights as like a poker game. You win some days and lose others but, in the long run, if you play the best game you will win.
Hope that makes sense.
Glad Mike Matthews helped - I rate him highly as far as advice and direction goes. He bases his theories and plans on personal experience and documented studies.
