hey thanks for your kind words guys. it does look suspiciously comfortable on the vid, even if when doing it you are in pain and suffering Grin But nothing like the fraserburgh though, that was PAIN while this was only Pain.

Thanks! Grin LGB, you may be interested to know that Alex/Kryptonite V and Brian/Buzz also had a great day out and they worked their balls off (which was nasty), we had an awesome day out!

back to the gym now. This week i will be just doing light stuff, and next week i will start the following routine:


Pressing formula is from the russian squat routine:
http://www.joeskopec.com/ruspeak.html

Deadlift routine is based on the Jackson routine:
http://www.sugdenbarbell.co.uk/index.php/articles/41

Emphasis during this phase is on deadlifts. No deadlift sessions will be missed. I am doing to deads what i used to do for my squats, make them my favourite exercise. You wont hear me complaining about them no longer. I will watch videos, read articles, ask advice, fine tune form, and pull often.

Another areas of work are speed and explosiveness. This is slowly introduced by making warm ups snappy and explosive and occasional more explosive exercises as well. Should add power cleans and such like to the routine but no space right now.

Another area to work on is speed and fitness. Might just add something in the end of each session to work those areas. Details not yet sure.

This routine should take about 9 weeks to go through, but my travels etc may get in the way. This might also hit my strength and weight levels, but i will try to hold on to as much as possible.

Monday

light swimming

Tuesday

"heavy" narrow bench press day:
6x3x115
6x4x115
6x5x115
6x6x115
5x5x120
4x4x125
3x3x130
2x2x135
max!

double day for push press:
6x2x80

Wednesday

Deadlifts
5x2x190
5x1x200 - rack pulls
4x2x200
5x1x200 - rack pulls
3x2x210
5x1x200 - rack pulls
2x2x222.5
5x1x200 - rack pulls
Max!

Assistance:

Rack pulls for a heavy single/triple/5 on single pull days. Varying height, emphasis on 18 inch mark which is conveniently a weak point for me (bar speed slows down just after lift off).

Platform deads on double days. Heavyish singles, doesn't have to go balls -> wall heavy, emphasis on speed. Might use bands for these as well.

Front squats if ammo left, especially if no assistance done

Dude, Bull is a cool nickname, I'd be more than happy with it.

I'm going to be official known as Sledgehammer instead of Toothpick when I get 400/300/500.

In fact, Bull is one of my favourite nicknames on the site. It's up there with Boar, Ironback and Dr. Love, which is possibly the best nickname ever.

Bulls are awesome mate, dont get me wrong. They are vegan and all, though they are pretty good deadlifters whereas mine is lagging?

Dr Love gets my vote as well Grin

Rob, good luck with OPERATION SLEDGEHAMMER looking forward to it Cool

Thanks Fruity - It was a great day, wasn't it! Tricep is as ok as any other bodypart at the mo Grin

To be fair, I think ukmachine (Mike Martin) has the best claim to be called the machine. It is his name after all.
