    Squat
    60kg (3x5)
    80kg x3
    100kg x3
    120kg x1
    140kg x1
    160kg x1
    175kg x1

    Speed Deadlift (conventional)
    140kg (10x1)

    Front Squat
    >120kg


    Plan was to work up to something that felt like a warm up and leave it at that on the squat (175kg flew up).. then do something conventional on the deadlift. 30mins mobility either side of the training.

    Roll on heavy bench monday... paused triples @140kg should be fun.

    Post- Script...

    Todays benchtastrophe...

    Bench + Light Band x Loads
    60kg (2x20)
    80kg x10
    100kg x5... felt heavy
    120kg x1... felt grand
    *remove band/paused reps*
    140kg x3.... felt light, hit the pins on second rep so the set up wasn't what it should have been, slight pec strain so discretion being the better part of valor called it a day on the prescribed 140(8x3) which Im confident I'd have smashed out the park.

    Close Grip Bench
    60kg x5
    80kg x3
    100kg x1
    120kg x1
    130kg x3...paused/no pain.

    Didn't bother with accessory work just went for food in Aussie BBQ. It was sh*t. I knew the pec wasn't 100% coming into the session, its not bad now either but no point forcing the issue and doing actual damage. Strength is there, just need to be patient.

    Mobility tomorrow then time to get squatting back on track on Wednesday time permitting.

    Do you wrap your legs much differently / looser when planning a set of ten vs. singles?

    So what your'e saying is that this all more meaningless than the multi ply "all time" squat record.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,155 ✭✭✭COH


    Couldn't do upper accessory day because of the pain in my adductors after squatting two days ago... I couldn't even demo how to use a f*cking concept 2 and I nearly exploded sitting on a bench. This is some real next level DOMS right here.

    Have been wearing slingshot hammy bands since 6am because my groins have been on the verge of popping since my almost unsuccessful attempt to walk to work this morning and my lower extremities are caked in deep heat.

    Thank god for Mark Bell thats all I have to say. Hopefully catch up on high rep bench tomorrow, deadlift Sunday and take the bank holiday Monday as a rest day and bench proper Tuesday.
