So today my training partner said 'Fancy doing the Smolov? the whole 13 weeks?' and I winced because he knew I would say yes against my better judgement and I had punished myself with this horror show before!

For the 13 weeks Ill be wearing knee wraps for the heavier sets and some of the rep days. This is to allow me to keep up with my fitness work and take some of the pounding of my knees.

The 13 weeks is set up around a 170kg pb on the squat. Below is Day 1:

3 x 8 x 110kg
5 x 120kg
2 x 2 x 130kg
1 x 135kg

Didnt use wraps on this day.

Didnt particularly like the shirt, felt I got nothing from it. The most probable explanation for this is that it was too loose. I honestly feel like I could have getting the 112.5kg without the shirt on.

» Moving from a unequipped cycle to a equipped (single ply) cycle (Go to post)28-11-2013 @ 18:53 
Hi,

I would like to try over the coming months to break in my squat suit and maybe give an equipped competition a go some point next year as a change from my unequipped competitions.

I was looking for tips/advice on how the training should change in terms of protocols/reps/sets/exercises. Is it a complete switch or is it pretty much the same with different goals?

Also, how would people recommended I start to break my squat suit in? Ive heard so many different ways I have info overload!

I would assume I shouldnt be worrying about depth until the material gives?

Cheers for any help!

Fitness session

Main aim - mixture of aerobic and anerobic conditioning in preparation for the more specific track session I have coming up.

200m walk
600m jog
400m effort
4 x 50m sprint/50m jog
5 x 25 bounds up a set of stairs
90 second effort run/90 sec recovery
60 second effort run/60 sec recovery
30 second effort run/30 sec recovery
1.5km cooldown
200m walk back to starting point
Dynamic stretching
Static Stretching

I felt quite quick along the sprint sessions and my fitness was nowhere near as bad as I first thought! Progress is good.

60kg x 3 reps
80kg x 3
100kg x 1

This session was meant to be much more involved but I have a new training partner entering the fold so it ended up just having some fun. Turns out he has put 20kg on his deadlift in 6 weeks plus 2.5kg on his bench so he is making some decent progress!

Hi,

Thought I would post up my training here to motivated me to keep a more detailed log of my progress!


BW - 64.9kg

Current PBS

Squat - 175kg
Bench - 107.5kg
Deadlift - 200kg

Goals

Squat - 180kg
Bench - 110kg
Deadlift - 205kg

Fed: GBPF
Div: YNE


Ill start logging my training where I am at now. I am currently in the middle of a comp cycle as I thought I was comepting on the 8th December but that fell through. However, I had already started with the heavy comp weights so I decided to continue.

So here we go from yesterdays session:



13/11/13

Squats (Explosive/Technique) - Warm up - 5 x 20kg, 3 x 40kg, 2 x 60kg, 80kg
Working Sets - 12 x 2 reps x 102.5kg (60% 1RM).

Comments - I was pausing the reps for the first 3 sets but this seemeed to be pulling my right glute/hamstring. I stopped doing this and jsut going for speed and this alleviated the problem.

Bench (Heavy) - Warm up 5 x 20kg 40kg, 2 x 60kg, 70kg, 80kg
Working sets - 2 x 85kg (80% 1RM), 2 X 92.5kg(86%),
2 x 100kg(92.5%), 2 x 105kg (97.5%), 1 x 105kg (97.5)

Comments - Little finger on ring at 85kg and 92.5kg, ring finger on ring for 100kg and 105kg. The single performed for the last set was compelted due to my spotter grabbing the bar slightly early.

Accessory Work

DB Floor Press - 20kg x 22 reps, 18 reps

Superset

Chest supported rows/Rear Delt Flyes - 4 x 12 x 40kg/10kg
