Keegan Smith Program


ATG Split Squat
bw x 5, +12 x 5, +20 x 5, +30 x 5, +40 x 5

Seated Good Morning
bar x 5, 30 x 5, 40 x 5, 50 x 5

Front Squat- 3 reps EMOM x 5
bar, 60, 80, 100, 110

Power Snatch Singles
40, 50, 60, 70

Felt a bit weak during this session but that's to be expected. Front squat was definitely down but that's ok too. I know once I get over the adaptation period I will be good to go.

I am also going to keep the bones of this program but make sure I'm getting more ATG work in there. There's no step ups or nordics both of which I will add back in on lower days.

Keegan Smith Program


Incline Bench-
bar x 10, 40 x 5, 50 x 5, 60 x 3, 70 x 1, 80 x 1, 70 x 6, 60 x 10

Ring Push Ups-
8, 8, 10

Got to it a bit late today so had to make it quick.  Still a good session and figured I will replace flat BB with incline for now as I prefer it that way. The single at 80 was smooth too which is ok given I'm losing weight and I expect my bench will be the first to suffer.

Working on my new program which I will start next week. Cannot wait.

BW- 96 even. That's 4.3kg in 4 days. Stomach is visibly flatter. Due to start some PSMF in a couple of days time. Would be nice to knock off another few kgs by the end of next week. Hopefully down to 92 or so by then. I would love to push for 88 by the end of 4 weeks which I think is totally possible at this point in time.

Had an uh...interesting weekend. Decided to have a few drinks Friday and Saturday night with the footy. Ate very well Friday and again yesterday (Sunday) too. Saturday decided to see how I would respond to my old way of eating. Had a burger and chips for lunch, some donuts, random stuff. Let's just say it wasn't good. Stomach was fine but had some serious joint pain in my legs. My knees, shins and ankles were on fire. Weird. Anyway, Sunday was normal eating and body is back to normal too. Weight was 98 this morning which will all be water so that's ok.

Have been working on a new program for myself. It's a variation on what I have been doing. First order of business is to finally fix my elbow which is directly related to my neck so I've included strenghening work for both. I have handstands in the program but won't be doing them till I've rehabbed the elbows first though. Other priorities are to get my flexibility sorted again and outside of these sessions I will have a stretch session each day. Ideally I'll hit the stretching session and some martial arts practice in the morning and then train late in the arvo. Would be the perfect day. For the first week though I imagine I'll get the arvo training session in and then some stretching at night in front of the tv.

I will run this for 5-6 weeks and reassess at the start of December. The goal on this next 5-6 weeks is to get some good volume in and drop a significant amount of fat so I know I won't be breaking any strength records. Will probably balance things out in December and give myself a good run at the 150 back squat/140 front squat combo.

The long term for this plan is to turn it into my main coaching program. I want to use the best of the knee ability program by Ben Patrick and combine it with elements from the Range of Strength program (my flexibility training) that would be ideal for martial artists. I've identified that wrists, shoulders, neck, knees and ankles are the main issues with many martial artists. The ankles, shoulders and knees being main culprits.  I'm thinking about breaking it up into seasons and having specific focuses that build into each other.

If anyone has any feedback I would be glad to hear it.

Dips- RTO hold for activation- build to top 1-5

Realised a critical error in my thinking for the martial arts program. Ideally I want this program to be one I can offer at a later stage online. I've got some seasons mapped out for it to take it through different focuses with each building on the prior one. My error though is that most people won't want to train 6 days a week plus martial arts. In taking advice from Ben Patrick (kneesovertoesguy) I need to live the program that I'm going to offer and be able to show the results of that. So, I'm going to cut it to 4 (2 upper/2 lower) with a bonus 5th day for squats and pulls.  Will also give me the chance to train martial arts more than I am now which is only a couple of times a week. I'm looking to get my MA training up to 5-7 at a minimum.

Picked up a bug and tweaked my neck last Thursday. Largely been out of action since then. Back on higher carb and protein for now too as the higher fat was just not working over the weekend. Just lucky I didn't shit myself.

Handstands- 3x20s against wall
Juggling- 3xMax

Strength
Dips Supports- 3x30s
Dips- bw x 4, +5 x 2, 2, 2, 2

Accessories
Arms- 10 mins (DB hammer curl & DB French press)
External Rotation- 2x10@6kg
Wrists- Ext and Flexion- 2x15 each

Felt pretty weak which was shit. Back on track so fingers crossed.

Friday 07/11/2020

No training. Got carried away with work.

Saturday 08/11/2020

2 hour hapkido class in a park. First class months and months. Cannot remember the last time I trained. Class was great but I was so sore after. Lots of pad work so lats and shoulders were wrecked. Also lots of kicking pads so my ankles, shins and knees are all feeling it.

Sunday 09/11/2020

Filmed about 30 instructional videos for the new coaching business so was in the gym demonsrating for over an hour. That was my workout for the day.
