Rodgerthat trying to pick heavy things up.

Today's workout as scheduled is

deadlift 455 3x3 with an AMRAP
Double pause deads 365 3x3
Sumo deads 225 2x8
Rack pulls 495 3x3
Back extensions 4x16
Shrugs 225 3x20
Abs
Stretch

I shall be going in about an hour and don't have time after to write it all out so I'll say if it's completed and what my AMRAP is for deadlift that will decide my 1rm attempt next Saturday for my mock meet
 
So screwed up on my plate math cause I was working out with a buddy and he was using 3 plates and a 35 for deads so added 35 and 5s thinking that was 455 cause I'm dumb it's 465 did my 3x3 and an AMRAP of 4 at 9PRE and I was upset until I realized it was 465 so I'm happy with that should be 525 1rm in my future.


Also I plan on starting my cycle same day as my mock meet but I've decided I'll start after I've tested my 1rm even though I have halo and TNE I'd like to see what I can get semi naturally ya know?
 
I want 545 March 20th at the meet and 525 feb 20th some new guy was in my gym today and did a deadlift 1rm of 515 so I need the 525 to regain strongest person there... Don't care that he's probably 260-280 he's my new competition love when there is someone that you can stack up against to make yourself better
 
Tonight's last heavy workout until Mock meet on Saturday.
Squat 335 5x5 moved good
OHP 135 4x8 (PR rep record on this and it moved beautifully might be out of my OHP slump)
Deadlift 155x10 245x8 335x6 435x5 225x13
I've gained some water weight back eating at maintainence this past week but it's helping my strength a lot.


Also some good news kinda, I was accepted to the program so once mock meet is done i am going hard on cardio and changing my workouts to burn maximum calories and strength will be sacrificed but hopefully tren helps with that. I need to be 175 in street clothes now so more like 172 so I need to lose 10-12 pounds but I have DNP, t3 and a goal so I should be able to do it without an issue within the required 32 days from today
 
Congratulations on getting into that program, should be a great opportunity if it's that one you were telling me about. I've never used any of this things you mentioned, but hopefully they'll help maintain strength levels.
 
Still, congrats and also sorry for your loss of potential bulking gains. At least you'll be shredded with an awesome job.

I will be shredded that's for sure, just jumped on the scale and I'm 185 if say at 12% BF so looking at like 8%bf for 175 area. Also the training is what I really want out of the job so even if i can just do it for a while then get back into the heavy stuff that be just fine with me.
 
Did my light workout today and making Friday a light cardio 30 min walk and 90min stretch so I'm primed for my mock meet Saturday.
Today's:
Squats 225 4x4 belt less pause reps
Bench 185 4x4 pause reps
Deadlifts 225 4x4
Military press 95 4x4
Bicept curls 40s 4x12
Roll out and stretched.

It was hard to do everything so light and with so much ease that's why I did the pause reps so it felt like there was at least something on the bar by the last rep.
 
Deload and light days suck. Feels so unnatural and unproductive. Keep the goals in mind though, it'll be worth it Saturday.

It's hard for me to take it seriously I was making funny faces to my workout partner and never once stopped conversation while doing a rep just kept talking :D but for Saturday it'll be worth it cause I get to have a reason to were my SBD singlet in public and figure out exactly how strong I've gotten. Plus I need a new Facebook profile picture so having 5 plates on standing tall with my deadlift would look nice I think :p

I wish I was that motivated with recovery work. Good luck tomorrow and looking forward to hearing about some PRs.

Also, lol'ing a little at the precise ketchup measurement in your plan for tomorrow.
 
I've got a small ketchup squeezer bottle for to go meals that's 3tbl spoons so I just always fill that full lol I'm a very precise person when it comes to things with numbers otherwise I OCD out and tweek out. One time my local new paper had a sudoku puzzle that was made incorrectly and was unsolvable I was pissed off and tried for 3 weeks until someone told me they had apologized in the next day's paper which I didn't get about the puzzle.
