| Intersting new approach/layout. And, as usual, tons of graft. Interested to see how it goes for lower body stuff. | |||

Hope I get my groove back that way! STRICT PRESS 20x10 20x10 40x5 40x5 50x3 60x9 -- 10 would've been nice, but failed rep n.10 halfway. DB Z-PRESS 22.5x5 each arm 22.5x5 22.5x5 CABLE ROW 60x12 70x10 80x8 80x8 80x8 Satisfied with how the pressing is moving. BW this morning: 94.5. | |||

| Good stuff, congrats on the PB! And pizza+ice cream+milk is a lovely way to spend the evening, it's worth feeling a little bloated come training time  | |||

INCLINE BENCH PRESS 20x15 60x8 80x5 80x5 KB CLEAN&PRESS (alternating arms) 16x5 each 20x5 20x5 Great pump in my...lower back...and calves!? Whatever. I'll take it DIPS BWx15 BWx15 BWx15 | |||

| Quick double-squat session today (all beltless): FRONT SQUAT 20x5 20x5 50x5 50x5 75x3 100x1 85x2 85x2 90x2 95x2 BACK SQUAT 70x5 70x5 95x3 120x2 135x1 80x5 100x3 120x3 Lower body was tired and I wasn't pushing it hard at all. Right now I want to keep the squats frequent, quick and technically sound. I've taken such a 'relaxed' approach to squatting in the past and it has worked well. | |||

Post Edited: 22.11.2013 @ 15:51 PM by Dee1704 Today's training:POWER CLEAN 40x3 40x3 40x3 50x3 60x3 70x3 70x3 70x3 BENTOVER ROWS (not Pendlays this time )70x12 90x9 90x9 I forgot how much easier these can get when you use a bit of hip/torso drive! BENCH PRESS 20x10 60x10 80x5 90x5 Shoulders are sore from yesterday's pressing plus today's cleans, so I stopped there. Just some light work to keep the blood flowing. Haven't benched with a regular grip in ages. PEC DEC 40x20 40x12 40x12 LOW CABLE ROW 60x10 80x10 90x10 Another decent session, not great but not bad either. | |||

nails said:Pressing looks like it's moving up nicely. Won't be long before an increase. Squats are a funny old beast, I only ever made slow progress on them, using a traditional program. However when I go my own way and just squat like a loon they increase. So that's my advice, squat like a loon  .Cheers mate, a couple of weeks ago squats were doing much better than presses, but now seems like it's gonna go the other way around. Nevermind, I'll let it all slide into loony mode, lol. | |||
