I'm training for some arduous courses next year and with being in the Army you naturally have to train the endurance element of the spectrum more so than the strength side and as I haven't posted for a month here is a little update for my own reference-

In no particular order of sessions-

Load carry training
Bergan hill reps
55lbs 1 hr 15

Metabolic training-
10-20reps 40kg squat (165 reps total)
10x550m run

An hour of pain for myself-
541 bodyweight squats
200 press ups
100 abs
200 and 400m runs interspersed between when I get tired about 10 in total?

'HILL HUNTER'
8 mile run as crow flies, every time you hit a hill you do 2 reps of it before harrying on, 8 hills in total ranging between 300m and 1 mile of gradient.

Sq
Work upto 220x2
Accessory work after.

Death by squats
40kgx154reps in 1 set. No racking the weight. Probably the worst thing I've ever done in my life. This caused my left arch in foot to collapse which is nice..

3-4 7 mile runs here and there.

'Bottom field'
For those not in the know it's a big old assault course and you just get smashed about on it.


A few more random runs and I've done lots of back and shoulder gym sessions but mainly high reps for eudurance when carrying weight.
I've not missed doing s**t like this but I'm slowly getting rid of powerlifting related niggles. Apart from the arch of my foot.

I'm doing planning on doing a charity event next year- 50,000kg squats. I'm doing this with 90kg for a total of 556 reps. Once I've completed that at some point I will go for 100,000kg squats or better known as 100kg for 1000 reps which is roughly the equivalent of the average soldier carrying light scales and rifle.

Tomorrow will be tabata running at 3pm then leg endurance session. I'm aiming to not have an off day at all and a minimum of 2 sessions per day now to start getting used to accumulative fatigue. If anyone is interested. After Xmas I'm back to 'heavy' PL training and I will be able to encorporate a lot more endurance.

So I've not been on here since November. Long story short I was too fat, too unfit, too injured and pretty crap at everything so I've taken about 5 months off, dropped from 97kg bodyweight on Christmas Day to 82kg consistently in the morning. I'm considerably fitter in that I can now run 6 minute miles again... Cool. Happy

Here's what I've been upto the past few weeks getting back into the swing of things.. Running 3 week waves of 2/3/1 reps for intensity days and 8-10/7-9/6-8 reps for volume days and just generally doing whatever the f**k I want. I haven't included most of the endurance stuff I do because that's business and not pleasure. I hate running.

Rib is still sore and I'm still breaking in the hips to squatting. As far as lifts go I'm now Squatting narrower and deeper, sumo deadlift only as this really helps with lower back issues, with bench I do 2 days, one with comp pauses and another with touch and go with no more stupid arching and s**t which is really helping and generally focussing on getting in loads of quality reps, not taking anything to failure on playing everything by ear.

If anyone even reads this I won't be competing this year as I'm going away for a long period of time/weak as f**k/open category so this is purely for s**ts and giggles.
