GR1982's training log
« on: November 16, 2016, 01:21:37 PM »
Hello everyone my name is George, I am 34yrs old, and body weight hangs around 229lbs. I compete in powerlifting in the 220's & 242's weight classes. I have competed multi ply in the past, but I mainly compete with single ply gear now. When I'm not training for a meet I do raw for the majority of my training. Looking to compete sometime next year and hit a 1500+

Monday 11/14/16 Squats(WK 6)

Recumbent Bike: 5mins

Squats
45x5, 3 sets
134x3
185x3
225x2
275x1
315x1
365x1
405x1
420x1

That was it. I was gonna do some other work but my lower back, forearms and biceps are killing me for some reason. I know I'm overtrained right now, gonna finish this training week and then take thanksgiving week off

I love the neck harness and I use it alot. I do neck harness, neck plate raises, 4-way neck machine. I do them all 4 ways. Also I usually alternate neck work with traps

Didn't get in my 3rd workout session in last Friday. I've had a bad head cold and felt like crap. Gym time this week is gonna be limited also this week, got Christmas family things to attend, so hopefully I'll be able to keep my diet in check for the most part.
