Just a thought, Rip, but I dont see much about your ab training in here. Strong abs support a strong back. Try some heavy standing ab movements.


I've been doing abs from time to time, albeit not as much as I was before, and not as much as I should be.  I hate working abs, and I've been slacking.   :-[
I usually do hanging leg raises a couple of times a week.  I gotta pick up more core work...although I gotta say, these workouts make my abs really sore sometimes.  There's something to be said for 17 sets of squats!

God your one crazy powerful women rip!!

Whats this sheiko stuff your doing....not that i am an authority enough to judge, but there doesnt seem to be much back work going on with the obvious exception of deadlifts. Or shoulder work 9though from ur avatar ur not lacking in shoulder size)?

Davie

Thanks Davie!  Great to hear from you! :)
Sheiko is a Russian program...it is basically a strength conditioning kind of program that focuses primarily on the big three lifts.  You get stronger at what you train, so there's not too much point in training other stuff, with the exception of some GPP exercises and also a few things to prevent injury. 
Not much additional back work, although I am adding in some hyperextensions.  I did lat pulls every week during my last round of meet prep.  Also not too much shoulder work, but there is some (see below).

Wednesday June 24, 2009 (Week 3 Day 1)

SQUATS
(50%) 100x5
(60%) 120x4
(70%) 140x3/2 sets
(80%) 160x3/5 sets

BENCH PRESS
(50%) 100x5
(60%) 120x4
(70%) 140x3/2 sets
(80%) 160x3/6 sets

INCLINE DB PRESS
35 lbs. x 10

SQUATS
(50%) 100x5
(60%) 120x5

ABS

My leg still hurts when I squat, but I finally feel like my strength is starting to bounce back.  We'll see how I feel when I deadlift this week.  I'm convinced that my leg is going to hurt until I take like 2-3 months OFF training altogether, so that means it will pretty much hurt forever.  ::)

Have you tried getting some soft tissue work done on your quad?  Maybe just a tennis ball and do it yourself?  You probably don't need to completely take time off to get it to heal, just something to break up the adhesions you probably have.

Yeah, I need to do this... I've been resisting because I HATE it, but I'm gonna find someone and get some help.  I definitely can't hit it with a tennis ball.

You might be able to do it yourself if you can tolerate that much pain.  You'd pretty much just lay on your stomach and roll the quad around on top of the tennis ball.  The tricky part is whether you have enough masochistic tendencies to be able to apply the pressure you need, or if you need to pay someone else to do it.  You might not even need to get a chiro or ART guy, just check the S&M sections on craigslist.

Thanks for the offer!   :-*


Friday June 26 (Week 3, Day 3)

DEADLIFT

160x2/2 sets

I got screwed by the gym and showed up an hour before closing (summer hours, oh brother ::)) so I totally had to cut it short.  That's all I got done.

My deadlift is pretty pathetic, but my bench is feeling really good.  I actually managed to unrack, press, and rerack all of those sets by myself.  I have found a good way to get myself under the bar better when I set up so that I don't need any help, which was good considering that there was no one in the gym to help me anyway!

In limbo right now... I'm sort of taking a mental break from really structured training/prep.  I'm also taking a break from keeping a detailed training log.   ;D

I did a bench workout last night... mixed it up a bit and kept the volume pretty high.  The highlight was benching 165x5/3 sets. 
I also did some incline DB presses, some flies, close grips, and tricep work.  I meant to do some light squatting but spaced on it, so I am actually going to do a pretty decent squat workout tonight.

I've picked up cardio again to try to get my fat self in better shape.  I did 35 minutes on the elliptical yesterday morning and this morning as well.

Interesting in the way you change your routines,I guess if you go with the same routines constantly it can start to become pretty boring. Reaching a certain plateau where you don't seem to be going anywhere. I don't know there's still a whole lot I don't know about this sport.

hahahaha WTF!  I can't bake!  :D

I will never lose interest!  I'm just a little fried right now.  I thought about it today... I went from training for USPF Nats last year right into the North Americans and then Nationals, and then trained 5 months this year for that USAPL qualifier.  I'm fucking fried to a crisp and now I have about a month to get my act together for my Nationals prep this year!  And then right into USAPL Nats prep after that!  This is my last chance for any "down time" and it's more mental down time than physical.

On a good note, I did a squat workout last night...lots of squats, and I worked up to 185x5, which I was really happy with considering my leg, which is still bothering me.  I also did some leg presses, which I hadn't done in a long time.  I also did 35 mins on the elliptical.  My left hip is really hurting today, but hopefully it will be better in a couple days.  Lots of stretching tonight and 40 mins on the bike this morning too.

We have a vacation planned for just after Nationals.  One of the reasons I am doing Nationals is because it's in Ft. Lauderdale this year, the weekend before Thanksgiving...perfect!
