WEEKLY TONNAGE:
squat 12,435kg *speed work
bench 19,675kg (inc db & military)
deadlift 20,490kg *rep week, damn this is some sort of pr.
+(5000kg bent row)

AVG BW: 103.3

some thoughts going forward:
*found some nice upper mobility work that i need to be doing every session.
*need to inc upper mob in my pre-workout drills - this will help tendinitis
*order some sbd elbow sleeves.
*continue with calf work, felt great for ankle mob.
*only pause bench 1 x per week
*move 2nd bench main work session to day 4
*put a space between back and front squat day
*go heavier on rdls
*find something better to edit videos as uploading 10 videos each session is s**t

trained 6 days on the spin so feeling a little beat up everywhere...

DEADLIFTS
210 X 5 X 3 - these felt like s**t, up a hole on my belt *6 dont know why i felt so bloated, really threw me into a s**t position.
2"INCH BLOCK PULLS
220 X 2 X 3 - easy setting up the blocks were an asshole but felt good.
- shifting a bit off the waist line would help positioning i feel, i felt best on hole 4 on my belt - just able to get feet where i like them and back flatter.

WEEKLY TONNAGE
SQUAT - 15,457kg
BENCH - 13,905kg
DEADS - 10,900kg
(+5k of bent rows)

AVG BW 103.8

- still need sbd sleeves for elbows and xl for knees.
- maybe compression cuffs also, tendinitis in right tricep worse this week than ever.
- this week sucked training each day, got to jig things around for next week.
- right ankle impinged again... need to work on this.
- enjoyed super setting calf work with ass to heel - nice stretch.
- i had less problems with two "full" bench days rather than the four halves i have been doing - i need more rest.

rough idea for next week:
SQUAT
BENCH
DEADLIFT
BENCH + FRONT
-
SQUAT + DL
-

SQUATS
200 X 2
215 X 5 X 2
230 X 3 PR



- Some SI discomfort, hit me straight at 120 so that sucked - going to hit split squats to start and more hip openers, i didnt do as much this session as far as opening the hips.
- some slight ankle/shin discomfort - though did some deep heat and this helped enough to get through no problem.
- happy for a rep pr considering the amount of work done before, i'd like to think on fresh legs another rep.
- definitely builds confidence playing around with 220 area for sets then something heavier, look forward to further along in the training cycle.

LAT PULLS DOWNS
REAR DELTS
HAM CURLS
CALF RAISES + ANKLE STRETCH
QUAD EXTENSIONS
SPLIT SQUATS

- enjoyed having more time rather than cramming in a bench session, so good to hit extra work that i may have neglected otherwise.

You don't lock your knees or use your glutes to lockout your desdlift

FYI

no time for futher ast work, had to be in and out in 40 mins, pleased with prs, biceps flared up after the 130s so found it tough lowering the bar.

vodoo work and maybe more direct lighter bicep work might help - i'll try this next session.

nice to be in week 4 and really see some strength gains that i've collected.
