 always lookIng for the extra UT2 work. Member 9, 18279 posts SQ 210, BP 167.5, DL 260637.5 kgs @ 103kgs UnEq | Thanks for the info on the split jerk. Interesting that you deliberately avoid bar/axle jerking whilst jerking the log. Definitely something for me to work on. I've seen Porter's vids - very impressive! Good to see you attacking one of your weaknesses with the bearhug grip keg carries. Some of the guys I compete against could do with following suit... | ||

 It's all you !!! Member 3099, 29 posts SQ 266, BP 166, DL 289721.0 kgs @ 92kgs UnEq | Tuesday, January 3rd - 5/3/1 Log Press (week 3) I was due for this training session on Monday, but I woke up with a nasty head cold. I get sinus infections often due to my nasal passages being all screwed up, so I decided to rest and not waste a workout. Came back in on Tuesday feeling great and ready to hit a PR. 12" Log Clean and Press (clean once) Worked up to 140.9 kgs / 310 lbs x 4 (rep PR). Opted for clean once to save my back for deadlifts on Wednesday. Video - http://youtu.be/wGr-v1tpqaw Seated DB Press (no back support) 4 sets 10-8 reps, worked up to 31.8 kg / 70 lb dumbbells x 8 DB Side Raises / Seated DB Cleans 3 sets 15-12 reps Weighted Dips 3 sets 12-10 reps, worked up to BW + 60lbs of chain x 10 Wednesday, January 4th - ME Deadlift Deficit Deadlifts - bar set as low as possible, just enough for me to slide my feet under the bar Worked up to 252.3 kgs / 555 lbs x 1 (13.6 kg / 30 lb PR), then did a down set with 227.3 kgs / 500 lbs x 5. Went beltless on all sets, but used straps at 500 lbs and up. Yoke Walk - all sets beltless 327.3 kgs / 720 lbs x 27.4 meters / 90 feet 350 kgs / 770 lbs x 27.4 meters / 90 feet (beltless distance PR) 368.2 kgs / 810 lbs x 13.7 meters / 45 feet (beltless weight PR) Video of the 368.2 kg set - http://youtu.be/c5IgR_ypggA One Leg Hamstring Curls 3 sets 15+ reps 45 Degree Hypers w/ Barbell (holding out in front w/ snatch grip) 4 sets 10 reps with 45.5 kgs / 100 lbs | ||

It's all you !!! Member 3099, 29 posts SQ 266, BP 166, DL 289721.0 kgs @ 92kgs UnEq | Friday, January 6th - ME Bench Close Grip Floor Press (index on smooth) Worked up to 152.3 kgs / 335 lbs x 3 (rep PR), very pleased with this because I used an even closer grip than I normally use.

It's all you !!! Member 3099, 29 posts SQ 266, BP 166, DL 289721.0 kgs @ 92kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 12.01.2012 @ 04:28 AM by Carlos_Reyes Monday, January 9th - Overhead Got sick on Saturday and didn't have a chance to get my 4th day of training in. After 3 weeks of heavy log press, I figured I'd switch things up with a little dumbbell action. Circus Dumbbell Press 75 kgs / 165 lbs x 4 (2 right, 2 left) 79.5 kgs / 175 lbs x 4 (2 right, 2 left) - rep PR 84.1 kgs / 185 lbs x 1 (0 right, 1 left) - weight PR Video - http://youtu.be/B5A51Aupjx8 Felt awesome about the 84.1 kg lift! Huge PR! Missed the weight 5-6 times with my right hand, then nailed it by my left on the first try. Funny considering my left is my weak side... Band Suspended Strict Press 4 sets 8 reps, two danging 25lb plates on each set Dumbbell Rows / Band Pullaparts 4 sets 12-10 reps Fat Rope Pushdowns 3 sets 15+ reps Wednesday, January 11th - Squat SSB Box Squat w/ +90.9 kgs / +200 lbs Band Tension - all sets beltless Worked up to 206.8 kgs + 90.9 plus kgs / 455 lbs + 200 plus lbs of band tension x 1. It's official that my new favorite exercise for building brute strength is heavy safety bar squats with tons of band tension, beltless! 14" Rack Pulls - right at my sticking point, beltless 252.2 kgs / 555 lbs for 3 sets of 5 Dumbbell Reverse Lunges 4 sets 8 reps per leg, working up to 45.5 kgs / 100 lb dumbbells. GHR's / Donkey Calf Raises 3 sets high rep Strength is on point - bodyweight is climbing and I'm smashing PR's that I was hitting around Nationals prep. Training has been focused and nutrition on point. Heading back to school this week, I'd love to go back with a U90KG BSM invite!!! | ||
