I think there was even more dust on the bar today so it was more like 145 KG anyway ha ha. I squat high bar, it feels more natural to me. I've really been trying to lower myself down with a lot more control as of late because the dive bomb into a stiff legged good morning I had been doing were really starting to screw my back, couldn't go more than a few weeks without a really bad back tweak, normally when doing deads but I think the squats were just as much to blame. The higher rep squats I was doing were a big help I think, but 20 reppers get pretty hard to sustain long term! | ||

Member 3476, 868 posts SQ 170, BP 136, DL 217.5523.5 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | 220 would be nice, it's my next goal for deads, would be nice to get five plate dead, four plate squat, 3 plate bench and 2 plate press by chrimbo. They've all been long term goals and should have done them ages ago but f**ked about too much with training. Wed 29 Jul 15 Bench 60, 80 x 5 100 x 3 110 x 3 x 5 Row 60 x 5 90 x 5 105 x 3 x 5 Squat 60, 80, 100, 120 x 3 135 x 5 EZ curl 35, 45 x 5 55 x 3 x 5 Holiday done and dusted, nice easy one to get back in the swing, time to rebuild the weights and push beyond. | ||

Enjoys his parents fully stocked fridge. Member 3476, 868 posts SQ 170, BP 136, DL 217.5523.5 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | Yeah I tend to do one top set for squats and deads, and 3 sets for other stuff, this just seems to work better for me. I seem to do better on more warm up and less work sets for lower body stuff. Probably because my poor little pansy lower back gets too tired otherwise ha ha. I tend to just follow a linear progression to be honest mate, I like the simple stuff like 5 x 5 (well, 3 x 5 really) and once I hit the reps i add a little weight. After a little break for a holiday or a works course or something I take the weights back a little and rebuild. I have tried a percentage based cycling program once for deadlifts but didn't like it at all, felt more like labouring than my fun hobby. I like trying to do a little more each session, and think I can get away with it at my level and because I don't do a ton of volume. I've changed jobs recently and have a long commute to go with the long shifts so can't train on my day shift days anymore so just flit between my A and B routine when it fits with my rota and the demands of my new little baby girl. Might be every second, third or maybe fourth day as required. How do you fit your strength stuff around the fighting mate? | ||

Member 3476, 868 posts SQ 170, BP 136, DL 217.5523.5 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | I think I trained weights twice per week when I was training MMA before, and loads of running and conditioning as well as the fight training, but I had the benefit of living a stress free life on camp. It seems to be all the other stuff life throws up that effects my training most. I think I lifted the weight routine from Ken Shamrock's book, squats, bench, curls, and clean and push press for 5-4-3-2-1, as well as push ups, sit ups, chins and free squats. Wasn't particularly strong, but was pretty good at the bodyweight stuff, even got the 500 squats once. | ||
