Squats 315-365-405-455x1

* could have continued with my 475 top sets but i went back to doing 10 reps on the little things. not the smartest thing to do but it felt very good at that time. using light-med weight makes the reps feel smoother and smoother the more reps you do. will strictly follow my plan from now.

Wed Sept 23

morning
Squats 315-365-405-455x1
Shoulders close reverse grip bench press 155 5x2 sets
Back seated cable rows 160 5x4 sets

* don't know why i just lift better in the gym unless the weights there are 20lb lighter. i spend a little more effort getting the 425 at home yesterday morning, than i did doing the 455 today. i am stronger today just because of the deloads from 455 but the difference is still noticeable.

afternoon
Squats 315-365-405-455x1, 405x2

Calves seated calf machine 2x45lb 5x1 sets, 3x45lb 5x4 sets

* bw 198lb and got routine 455x1 twice today. if i fatten up to 202 again, il probably be back to multi 475s daily. prefer the veiny ripped look at  198. 202 bw is a big difference on how thicker my abs fat is.

Calves seated calf machine 3x45lb,2x45lb+25lb 5x2 sets each

* this workout is with incomplete sleep and day after first work night. i was still explosive enough for a 425x2 backoff. its not the floor because i have the same or better wood floor at home. i doubt the weights are fake in the gym. the bars i'm using are both 28mm. another thing i noticed is the bar spin. the oly bar i got at home from repfitness is a bearing bar with good spin. the oly bar at the gym has an even faster spin. the spin is fast enough to be uncomfortable for bench press use because my wrist was all over the place. i will eventually order a fast spinning oly bar so i get consistent results.

* been squatting consistently stronger after all the fatigue from the 225+ of benching wore off. the db press is doing a good job of thickening my front delts with adding fatigue to my back. the dips take care of the triceps. i have no heavy db at home so i had to go with the bench press for the shoulders. focusing on moving the bar down to my mid section with elbows to the side. need to use the lowest weight than can get the job done so i don't tense my back.
* 405x3 added some fatigue. coordination was good. legs not very strong.

* yey. got 455 at my home gym. skipped the fight-club gym because i wanted to get more sleep for this 4-night work week. my appointment at that gym is 2-3:30pm which gets me only a 4hr + 1.5hr day time sleep. i take a nap after i get back home. i can only go 405-425-455 at home with the bumpers i have. 435 would be nice today but still got 455 without a lowerback punishing grind.
* reverse grip on the bench press for healthier shoulders and elbows. i feel strongest pulling with the palm up grip so why not push the same way.

* back to back 455 on the work side of the week. the warmup up to 405 felt easier and more explosive than yesterday but the 455 moved slower.
* my caloric excess plan has to stop. there is no way i'm getting into the mid 200 without being fatter. maintain 198-202 indefinitely and get 475 on very good days.

* too much fatigue from the heavy chest pressing in the pass few weeks. had to cut back on those because my squats are not overshooting even with double day workouts. replace with bw dips with good volumes. heavy seated rowing also replaced with lighter face pulls using tricep rope. need to stop at 140-150 ish because i can't support a heavier weight.

* stronger this morning than yesterday.  could have gone 425 but prefer to get more recovery going.

afternoon
Squats 315-365-405-455x1, 405x2
Back standing cable face pull 120-130-140 10x2 sets each | standing cable row with tricep rope 120-130-140-150x10, 160-170-180-190x5, 180 5x2 sets
Shoulders db press 70 rest | bw dips 10x2 sets

* was able to plant myself better on the standing cable rows and got 190lb going to 5 reps. too much bracing on that weight and not something id do everyday. 180 is a good top set.
* squats feeling so much better already. stopped the backoff at 405x2 but felt explosive enough to get 4-5 paused reps. going ham on the cable rowing volumes. the rope attachment gets my a good squeeze at the top ROM. i pull the resistance to the back and out at the same time for max contraction of the back muscles.

home morning
Squats 315-365-405-425x1

* 5am morning first garage workout. felt very good but i was also tired from all the 455s from previous days. they feel like 475+ on the wrong floor.

afternoon
Squats 315-365-405-435x1

Chest Press smith flat bench press 225 5x4 sets, 275 2x2 sets | db press 70 10x2 sets

* squat coordination was very smooth in the afternoon as expected. was not very strong because of fatigue but i blasted thru 315-365-405 without rest. on a one a day squat schedule, it usually takes me 4-5 singles of 315 to get myself going.
* narrow grip tricep flat (very little incline, a 25lb plate on the head section of bench) is very strong. 275 with feet elevated and not to much tension on the lowerback.

* heres my self-assembled cable station in the bedroom. did the upright rows here. not as smooth yet compared to the gyms because its not broken in yet.

$1860 cable station
$305 olympic bar
$240 squat stand

not the top tier equipment manufacturer but repfitness  got very good reviews and is best for the price range. the squat stand from titan is well built. will post pics once all is set.

* i get better ROM feel on the underhand db press but can't use that as a main push exercise because of the safety issues when using very heavy db. i could use 90-100x5 but getting the db to the starting position is so much hassle. my home gym will be 75% complete before mid-week. i'm having a custom built lifting platform for my squats. have some extra hard wood so putting that on top of 3 layers of 3/4" thick good quality boards.

* this 435 feel like a routine 455 if i was using a platform. im happy keeping top set to this at this gym. my home gym equipment slowly arriving now. i have a rep fitness oly bar, a titan fitness garage squat rack.. some rep fitness bumper plates. i also spent good money for a cable functional trainer FT-3000 from repfitness.
 
home gym status:
i have the following delivered/shipped or ordered pending shipping.

1x bearing oly bar


cable station


FID (flat-incline-decline) bench


colored bumper plates up to 500lb blues and change


garage squat rack - titan T3 space saving.
link since i can't figure out pic from pinterest. https://www.titan.fitness/racks/power-racks/t-3-series/t-3-series-tall-space-saving-racks/SSRT3UP-SSRT3.html

majority of what i need is already taken care off. some things that would be nice to have - dumbell set, dumbell holder on the rack (this will prevent most db setup injuries), a DIY lifting platform. still need to order oly plate storage attachment and cable attachments but thats about it. i'm ready for indefinite shelter in place now.

* i lied. don't even have the mental drive to use 10x2 backoff sets even if the weights are moderate-heavy. it will not be so mentally tiring if i use a light-medium weight but i believe that using a very light intensity for metabolic reps don't really benefit a natty lifter at all.

* used a friends garage gym and got a good squat workout in. formal gym start tmrw and don't want to have a crappy first day so i asked a friend for a few mins to get my legs firing right. form still felt very coordinated. stopped only at 415 because i don't want to go too heavy too soon. i could have used more.

Chest Press db press 50-60-70-80 10x1 sets each

* starting to like the db press movement because of better full ROM feel. fight-club gym now has a 28mm bearing bar. squat feels better but still not as strong. lifting on a wood platform adds to my lift. just like bball in a wood count gets you better vertical than concrete. the floor recoils energy back.
* changed rep ranges to fit a 1x per day workout routine. 5s not going to cut it anymore. drop weight and increase volumes to 10 reps. quality reps comes first so weight has to go down. back rowing felt very good again using the fancy mag grips. my oly bar shipped already from repfitness. waiting on inventory of adjustable bench, db set and bumper plates and i'm ready for shelter in place.

* saw the 2.5lb plates on the rack and put it on the final set. it felt so much heavier than a 435. il leave the little disc out next time. i'm not as strong because of incomplete sleep. db press with 90lb was not so bad but will not go heavy often on db. too much chance to hurt yourself. the pressing part is not the issue. the setup has so many room for careless error than can cause injury. lowerback a little fatigued from the cable situp yesterday so i skipped it today.
* face pulls with the spiral grips were awesome and hits the mid-mid back on the right places. the rows are a bit lower portion of the mid back.
