Tried deadlifting again today. Everything felt fine until the 10th rep of my last set, I felt a twinge and stopped there so injury avoided this time...

Deadlift weight in pounds
135x12
185x12
225x12
275x12
315x10 plan was 12 but like I said above, twinge!

Did 1 hour of kettlebell stuff and it f**king destroyed me!

GHR
4 sets of 10, the first 2 I used 35lbs on my chest

Conditioning
5 rounds of 30 sec sprints on the rower and 10 kettlebell swings

Finished with some abs and called it a day!

Well I got sent to Greece on Monday with literally 8 hours notice. Well, I was notified at noon and was in the air by 8pm so actually I had no notice, but that's the military life. I have been getting some rough workouts in though so i am happy about that. My back has been feeling pretty good and i think I might try some deads again, but in the smith machine and very light just to get the motion down. I will start posting my training again next week when they are more steady workouts. Looking forward to real training!

Thanks man! It's not hot our here, but warm and sunny for sure. I think it's 20+ degrees during the day. The gym isn't bad either. It's more of a fitness center, but they seem to be cool with chalk and some noise. I guess I am just happy we have a gym and not just a sand pit to stand in like usual.

Had a good one yesterday. Was able to do deads with the trap bar with no pain.

Trap bar deads
135x10
225x10
315x6
405x6,x6,x6,x3,x3,x3 (not big weights obviously, but I'm just glad the back is holding in again)

Kettlebell circuit (have to use dumbbells sence this gym has no kettlebells. I used a 65lb dumbbell for the swings, cleans, and snatches, and two 65lb dumbbells for the front squats.

6 swings
6 front squats
6 cleans
6 frontsquats
6 snatches
6 front squats

I did 3 rounds of this nonstop! Nearly puked!

Finished with sprints on the rower supersetted with the ab roller.

I was smoked by the end of this!!!

Yesterday's workout weight in pounds

Dips

bw for 4 sets of 5

added weight
bw+45x3, bw+90x3, bw+135x3, bw+180x3, x2, x1, bw+135x3, x3, x3, x3

Pullups

bw for 4 sets of 3

added weight
bw+45 for 10 sets of 3

Dumbbell Shoulder raises

3x6 with 60lbs

Dumbbell work since we dont have kettlebells

70 swings with a 70lb dumbbell

3 sets of 8 clean to the shoulder with 100lb dumbbell with fat gripz

3 sets of 6 clean and presses with 100lb dumbbell with fat gripz

3 sets of 4 snatches with 100lb dumbbell

Finished with conditioning of 6 rounds of skipping rope and weighted situps (weight behind head).

Felt that one for sure! Woke up today and not a lot of back pain at all, in fact there was none! I am still not going to push it till December though I think since I really have no need to. I am actually really liking all this conditioning anyways and think that I may only tone it down a little bit when I can start lifting heavy again. I think I can find abalance of the heavy lifting and conditioning again that I will continue to enjoy.

Just bench squat dead like a normal powerlifting meet. I guess it doesn't even need to be done on the same day though. You can just have a gym worker come watch your lifts whenever you feel. I might do it just cuz! Free shirts rock!
