No fancy title, no gimmicks, just the pursuit of being stronger, bigger and faster. im really excited for the first 6-7 months of training that is planned out. i have yet to see all of it, but after some lengthy conversations with my coach, and giving him feedback as to what seems to work for me, and what i need to improve on, i think we are on the track for some righteous gains. i had already lifted this week before i got my new training block. but everything got pushed back a day to ensure recovery from Mondays session of bench, paused squats, high incline DB and hack squats
i will get bodyweight next time im at the gym. id imagine im somewhere between 235-240.
i will also go into greater detail about nutrition and recovery methods i do in further post. just trying to be as accountable to myself as possible. i have some lofty goals for this year which i think are attainable with proper accountability. my goals this year are 600 pound squat(most likely in wraps) low 400 bench and a 700 pound deadlift.
Wave 1 Day 1
Competition Deadlifts with light bands
505+ 100-140 band tension
5 sets 3 reps
One arm standing DB Push Press
75lb DB
5 sets 5 reps
SSB Good Morning
275
5 sets 7 reps
First time deadlifting with bands. i really liked it as my lockout has become my weakpoint. the DB push press was also new. probably could have went a hair heavier but wanted to get the movement down. its really apparent my left side is weaker than my right. i can see this in bench videos also so i think DB movements will help. i also forgot how brutal Good Mornings are. my hams and back are toast today.
