 fighting woo with woo Member 206, 1491 posts SQ 227.5, BP 165, DL 260652.5 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq | Sunday My pec is giving me some grief, so I'm laying off bench for a little while. I'm sticking with a 5-3-1 program on beltless squats to try to build up back and core strength. The poundages are modest, but I think they may help in the long run.Did some wide grip chins today and was amazed that I could do any at all. Beltless squats 70 X 5 70 X 4 120 X 2 145 X 5 155 X 5 165 X 5 100 X 9 100 X 9 100 X 9 Wide grip chins - bodyweight 5,4,4,4,4 | ||

I've got my eye on you too.  Wednesday Wednesday is cook-your-own-tea night, on which Mrs Tannhauser takes a well-earned break. Unfortunately, I have discovered that there is no rice in the house, turning my spicy pork mince into spicy pork soup. Anyway, tonight was fairly painless, and the beltless squats have settled into a nice groove. I'm resting the damaged pec for another session, then I'll start a 5-3-1 bench press routine. My grip has got a bit stronger on bent over rows, as it ought to have done from all the fat gripz work.

fighting woo with woo Member 206, 1491 posts SQ 227.5, BP 165, DL 260652.5 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq | Saturday I was really up for deadlifts this morning. 250 kg with straps is 5kg off my best without straps, but it's good progress. I think I would have struggled to get more. Back to bench press today. I'm trying a 5-3-1 as it should avoid high poundages. Infact, I did five sets with well under 50% of my estimated max. Pec still hurting. 125 X 9 is pants. Deadlifts 70 X 5 120 X 3 150 X 2 170 X 2 180 X 1 200 X 1 210 X 1 220 X 1 230 X 1 240 X 1 [straps] 250 X 1 [straps] 220 X 3 Stiff-legged deadlifts 170 X 5 170 X 5 Bench press 70 X 5 70 X 4 100 X 3 110 X 5 115 X 5 125 X 9 75 X 10 75 X 10 75 X 10 75 X 10 75 X 10 | ||

fighting woo with woo Member 206, 1491 posts SQ 227.5, BP 165, DL 260652.5 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq | Thanks gentlemen. Tuesday, 5-3-1 program Decided to up the weight on the light squats for reps. And, er, drop some reps. Even six reps seems like a lot, though. I found the high reps on close grip bench surprisingly hard. Also, this just in: I possess more chins than I can perform. Beltless squats 70 X 5 120 X 3 145 X 5 165 X 3 185 X 2 120 X 6 120 X 6 120 X 6 120 X 6 Chins 5,5,4,4,4,3 Bench Press 115 X 3 120 X 3 130 X 8 Close grip bench press with little girly weights ] 70 X 10 70 X 10 70 X 10 70 X 10 70 X 10 | ||

fighting woo with woo Member 206, 1491 posts SQ 227.5, BP 165, DL 260652.5 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq | Friday My bas***d pec is still playing up. I'm going to have to give up benching for a while - maybe do some overhead press instead. 142.5 X 5 is decidedly mediocre. Squats were OK. My legs have got bigger since I started these low weight squats. Mrs. T is back tonight - hooray. Beltless Squats 70 X 5 100 X 3 147.5 X 5 157.5 X 5 167.5 X 5 120 X 6 120 x 6 120 X 6 120 X 6 Bench press 70 x 5 70 X 4 115 X 5 130 X 3 142.5 X 5 Close-grip girly weight bench press 70 x 10 70 x 10 70 x 10 70 x 10 70 x 10 | ||

fighting woo with woo Member 206, 1491 posts SQ 227.5, BP 165, DL 260652.5 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq | Tuesday Excellent. Very pleased with 240 X 3. It's a big step up for me, though I could never have done it without straps. I really need a decent bar. Not much time to do anything else as I have to work tonight (I'm a part-time prostitute). My chest is f**ked, so no benching at all for me until its rested. Push press instead. Deadlifts 70 X 4 70 X 4 120 X 3 150 X 2 180 X 2 200 X 1 210 X 1 220 X 1 230 X 1 240 X 3 (straps, reps PB) 245 X 1 (straps) Stiff-legged deadlifts 170 X 6 170 X 5 Push press 50 X 5 70 X 3 80 X 2 100 X 2 100 X 2 100 X 2 100 X 2 | ||
