new cycle begins.
new plan for squats, hopefully my gl00ts hold together.

S1:
HIGH BAR SQUATS
180 X 5 X 3
160 X 10
170 X 3 X 7

Could feel might right glute moaning on the top of some of the last reps, felt a bit sketchy, just need to get more mobility work in, felt great just to be squatting again and now a couple days on feel no negatives from training it.

low bar, caused more stress on it so will have to be careful and may stay all high bar for a while and just nip the numbers back a touch - i have no issue with training more sub maximally anyway.

45 D' HYPERS 4 X 10
QUAD EXTENTIONS 4 X 15
ABS

S2:
BENCH
FEET UP
120 X 5 X 3 - *It was so light so added the feet up to underload.
105 X 23 (3 REP PR)
CLOSE GRIP
115 X 3 X 10

tri w/rope 4 x 15
underhand pull down 4 x 15

bicep curls 4 x misc
wide lat pull down 4 x 20

military press 60 x 3 x 5 -
don't know what was up here, i think i just had a stupid pump and shoulder felt funny so left it, shame wanted to hit 70x8s or similar - didnt do any main db work this day, felt like i had zero energy with these leg doms.

pec fly
105 x 5 x 12

straight arm pull downs 4 x 15-20
tri w/rope kickbacks? 4 x 15
tri w/rope one arm push downs 4 x f

planks
3 x 45s.
- be nice to get this to 3-5 x 1 mins, just upping it a little each time.

glute:
warm up drills , kb swings.
felt fine until about 140kg but then then pain got no worse, a high bar narrow stance hurts far less so sticking with that for now.

HIGH BAR
195 x 5 x 3
170 x 4 x 6
- i would have usually done 10kg more but high bar + injury.

split squats.

S5 This week was just rolling the glute and kb swings, lots of other mobs too.

PM:
DAN GREEN SEMINAR
awesome, confirmed a lot of things for me and the methods i'm implementing - he also said my squat was pretty sweet so time to build one my ass can take it.

going forward this week:
got the super nova ball and just going to do 10-15 minutes per day or more rolling, found a trigger point i think so work on opening that up and increase general hip mobility and specifically the right ankle.

i benched yesterday but with my glute completely ruined there was no chance of me squatting or pulling.

the bench was s**t, really difficult on the unrack and lost quite a bit of tightness.

BENCH w/pause
120x4,140x3,150x2
140x3
130x6
120x9pr
100x26 tng wider
100x20 tng wider.

BEHIND THE NECK PRESS
40 x 3-5 x 12-15

*during this session i got to train along side my idol and a true ambassador to the sport - dan green. He watched me bench and had nothing to say we just worked up together, nice to not get any criticisms though welcome of course. Dan was pretty beat so hit 205x2. After this we went for dinner and managed to sit next to the man himself and shoot the s**t about training and life - a truly memorable experience.

SQUAT- Worked up to 180x2, glute hurt bad for a couple days after this defintely re-injured it trying low bar squats with dan green.

DL @villian,
220x3
200x5x3
160x2x5-8 sldl
no real discomfort, more on the sldls than anything but thats why i went v-light.
forgot my leggins which sucked with shorts but everything was pretty easy.

8 sets of chins, various grips.
glute hams
reverse hypers.

*new plan is just to just pull this week and if i feel good try high bar or front squats after.
* the meet in may is out of the window, i'll turn up and do a token sq and dl.

C2 W3 S1
BENCH DAY.

100x12 tng
120x3p,135x3p,140x3wp,140x3p,135x3p,135x3cgp.
95x29 pr, 95x19w,
110x2x6 close grip.

Underhand back machine ss/w 40x4x15 db flat press *go a bit heavier now*
Behind neck press 40x4x10 ss/w other back bits. *more for stretch*
over head Tri extensions 16x4x10pr ss/w Bicep curls.
Pec flys ss/w Chins.

*the wider grip and incorrect hand placement really threw me today next session i'll get in a 3-4 140 sets in, i think i need to train wider as i have been doing as it doesn't current feel stronger.
*the chins i've thrown in because i suck at them so a good finisher.
*rehabing glute a lot more and no squats, i hope for a marked improvement by this time next week - even though may is a right off i need to get back putting kgs on the total, 260 should have been done 3 weeks ago, now 180 feels like s**t.

GLUTE HAM
pin4: set of 10 pr.

Felt super tight in my pecs and shoulders, warming up could feel my elbows inflammed.

BENCH:
125 X 2
140 X 2
155 X 2 X 1
160 X 2(f)
140 X 7 TNG
140 X 6 CG TNG

*the 2nd 155 was so smooth and a nice pause so felt confident going heavier, i paused at the top too long and was very unsure whether to go for a double i should have committed either way, to be honest its filled me with confidence, on a fresh day 160x2 will happen i'm in no rush to do it, perhaps next cycle.

55 X 8 PR

*squats have made me sore everywhere, can't wait to be conditioned again - perhaps tonights squat session will help.
