Last Thursday:
OL Squat-Gear deficient and walked out
Went back to EFS and trained with Jim. He is the anti gear whore, so I thought it would be fun to try to keep up. Dont remember any of the sets except for the last one 570x3. It was probably 10-12 sets total including warmups. That was an ass kicker, and it was all that I needed to do. Wendler got 5. Bastard.

Training has been a tossup for me as I am slowly but surely getting settled into my new job and its hours. I did my ME sq/DL work Tuesday this week, but will definitely be suattin on Friday for DE day.
ME SQ/DL
Gear deficient free range squat
135x10
225x5
315x5
405x2
495x2
585x1
635x1
700x1
740xmiss It was deeper than Mike Millers 1220, but thats not saying much. Sitting back, I could feel my hamstrings shutting down, so I cut it a 2 liter high and called it a day. Much further down with it andI ould still be trying to dig my way out of the gym floor and decompress my spine. Time caused me to cut this one short as well. wife had to work, and I got to watch the boys for 2 hours! Great times. My sons are so much fun, and theyre CRAZY!

Here is an average day at DC Barbell. Its normally a ME Bench day, but we had a couple guys squatting, couple guys benching, and a couple guys deloading from a meet they did Saturday. I squatted with my OL shoes on to a box about 3" below parallel. No belt on either. Squat: 135x10 225x10 315x5 405xx3 495x1 225x10 225x10 Didnt want to do alot, as I value walking, and being able to sit down and stand up without LOADS of pain. I know now that it was a pipe dream, and im rediculously sore. im going to start pumping these numbers up however, in hopes they carry over to my deadlift and wide stance squat. its nice to take the strain off of my hips when squatting as well. Also did CV Rows 3 platesx14RP 9-3-2 Cable Rows 275x12RP 8-3-1 pushdown abs with green band Stetch Jason |

Started a new aspect of my training tonight...cardio...
Walked aimlessly around the neighborhood for 45 minutes. Mr. X is helping with my diet to lean me out some, as I am carrying way too much bodyfat. The 45 minutes was his recommendation. Will start doing this 3x per week and go from there. i am also gradually tightening my diet up, but nothing drastic as of yet.

I know I havent posted in a week, but Ive been busy with work, and the weather change has been murder on my elbow.
Today was DE SQ/DL
reverse miniband with buffalo bar
135x5
225x5
315x2
405x2
455x2
500x2
600x2
675x5 Felt good to do some reps here. thought about going up and doing some more, but decided against it.
Arch outs
225x3x12
Basically all we are doing with this exercise is making sure that we are arching the bar out of the monolift the correct way. After taking the bar out, you squat down about a foot and stand back up, slowly and under control. It sounds retarded, but HAMMERS your lower back, and reinforces good technique.
TKE
Green band 3x15 each leg
Abs
3x8 heavy
Hex head DB holds
20lb DB x 3 sets of 30 seconds. Gotta get the grip strength up to deadlift something respectable.

Saturday Accessory work
CV Pulldowns
3x15 Light weight...maybe 120lbs. It is hard to say though. We have an old plate loaded pulldown that gets tons of weight strictly from friction. I will just list the weight used.
Lat Pulldowns
3x12 200lbs
Seated rows
270x 11RP-felt like crap...back was jacked after the pulldowns.
KB Shrugs
88lb KB 3x12 very slow, 3 sec pause at top, and 3 sec stretch at the bottom. SMOKER
Kb Sidebends
88lb KB 3x15 each side
KB static holds for obliques
88lb KB x 3x30 sec0nds each side...These were smokers after the sidebends

i would have loved to be there while your big ass was doing quarter squats with 225. willing to bet somewhere in the gym some 140 pound kid was looking over and thinking "fuck i'm stronger than that guy!" |

Nope. Weve only got like 10 guys in the club. Fortunately, it is private. The 145lb kid was doing them with me. Jason |

ME Squat/deadlift Pin 5 rackpulls against a blue and green draped over the bar. Maybe 300-400lbs of tension at the top. I really have no idea. This is what the guys estimated it at. It was brutally heavy. Pin 5 puts the bar about an inch below my kneecap at the start of the lift. Blue band for 5 Blue and green for 3 Blue and green for 5 135x3 185x3 225x3-add straps 275x1 315x1 365x1-ass and lats start cramping severely at the top on this one and continue all the way up. 405x1 455x1-This wasnt completely locked out, felt like it stalled out where my 700 did in August. i would not have been able to do 5 more pounds. it was that hard. Glute ham raises BWx12, 10, 8-I didnt try to pyramid them down like this, it just happened that way KB Sidebends 88lb KB x3x20 each side. These were VERY hard after the deadlifting. Odd, but I will take it. supersetted with EZ curl bar upright rows-for fun and profit 3x10 with 100lbs My back and traps are already hammered, and Ive been done about an hour I came home and did some hip mobility work/stretching Jason |
