20 February 2012

Bodyweight@session : ~195
Injuries/aches : some upper back strain bugging all day , no bugging at workout though.
Soreness : chest&lats , ~2/5


Explosive lower workout.

HANG POWER CLEAN:
3@110 lbs ( same )
3@121 lbs ( same )
3@121 lbs ( same )
3@132lbs ( +1 rep ) , edit : ties all time :personal-record:

2x3@198 lbs ( same )
2x3@209 lbs ( +11 lbs )
2x3@220 lbs ( +22 lbs )
-Depth steady at barely above parallel.
-Ramped from ~80% to ~90% 1RM full squat , trying to find optimal weight. No big differences actually , probably should load more. I will keep adding weight while maintaining depth, until i lose explosiveness.

RDLs:
8@198 lbs ( same )
8@220 lbs ( same )
7@253 lbs ( +11 lbs ) , ( +1 rep ) ,  :personal-record:
-220 felt way too easy so i went for a PR and nailed it. Lost grip so didn't do 8 though. Previous PR 8x242.

STANDING CALVE RAISES:
3x8@209
-Getting too easy , might go to 4x8 next time.

Was a bit sick all week so missed yesterday's ME full squat day.
Also can't workout tomorrow ( supposed to do upper ) , so i joined the 2 workouts in a max-out workout today.

3 March 2012

Bodyweight@session : ~193,5 , too low because AM and very light breakfast
Injuries/aches : none
Soreness : none

Max out workout.

SQUATS:
5@132 lbs , ATG
5@176 lbs , ATG
3@220 lbs , ATG
3@242 lbs , barely above parallel
2@264 lbs , half squat.
-PR at barely above parallel depth is MSEM 5x1x253 so very happy with 3x242.
-264 was too heavy to go deep , meh.
Edit : checked log , 3@242 ties :personal-record: at barely above parallel depth.

BENCH PRESS:
5@88 lbs
5@110 lbs
3@132 lbs
3@154 lbs
-True 3RM , 1st rep ok , 2nd semi-grinder , 3d almost failed but got it.
-Must check log , 3x154 is PRish level.
Edit : checked log , PRs are 6@154 / 3@165 , so today was WEAK!

5@100 lbs
5@150 lbs
3@180 lbs
3@200 lbs
3@220 lbs ,  :personal-record:
