GuineaPig’s Training Log - Rebuild

[guineapig]

Hi all,
Have not been on T Nation long and living in Australia the time zones mean that during the day things are pretty slow but have seen the other great training logs around and the great atmosphere here (most of the time at least). I’ve decided to start one of my own mostly to keep myself accountable and get some tips especially on technique or bench (poverty )

Right now my goals are more powerlifting focused but I started lifting as a bodybuilder and still throw in a few curls and raises.

1RMs as tested recently are 175/105/220/kg SBD. So you can see the poverty bench sticking out like a sore thumb

[guineapig]

Here’s most of today’s stuff. Will start recording landscape from now on

Squat
4x4 130kg

Quads were really sore almost like an injury so squats were very awkward. On the video it wasn’t looking too bad but felt like a couldn’t control the descent speed or positioning. hopefully I’m fresh for my next workout.

Bench
4x4-5 90kg

Was no fun as usual. I never feel tight enough and am inconsistent with my form e.g. some days tighter than others. Put in the work nevertheless.

Deadlift
Sumo 1x5 170kg Rep PR, 180kg single for formcheck
Conventional 3x5 150kg

Only lift that went well for the day. 170kg felt light so went for a new rep PR. Usually I prefer cheating to conventional but they build each other so put in the work.

Tried a pause deadlift during warm up and it felt good. May start incoporate them.

While I’m here may as well get a form check and or ideas on strengths or weakpoints

Pizza for for post workout meal

[bigjez]

G’day mate good to see another Aussie around here
In for your log.
Where are you training out of? Looks like a gym I’ve trained in western Sydney

[guineapig]

Derrimut Gym.

Couple of them in Victoria. It’s a chain/commercial gym but about caters to real lifting as much as a commercial gym can. More bodybuilding than powerlifting tho but it has enough

$5 casual is nice too. Cheaper then contracts with most gyms in Victoria.

[guineapig]

chick in the other rack is mirin. I am also mirin them tights/leggings no homo

Isn’t that why we lift?

Men’s compression tights are sexy af. Full homo

[painter27]

$5 casual is nice too

Got to love that price, I normally go to doherty’s when I’m in vic but I might check that out.

Cool another aussie

Gotta catch them all yeah?

[theonecamko]

Not from Australia and don’t own any mens leggings, hoping this log will help with that

[duketheslaya]

Gotta catch them all yeah?

We will outnumber the americans and take over the site mwahaha. #Teamaussie #Straya #Aussielifting #gottacatchemall

[khangles]

Plane tickets to Australia and some online shopping will have you sorted mane… dunno about sexiness tho.

don’t own any mens leggings

So how do you find women’s tights? Do they make you look thicc

[khangles]

Where the gains at?

[theonecamko]

So how do you find women’s tights? Do they make you look thicc

11 out of my 10 workouts a week consist of strictly booty training so im already pretty #thicc and last time i wore womens leggings i was kicked out of Victorias Secrets but they were pretty tight

[guineapig]

Am actually a big fan of Russian lifters. All the world record holders and coaches. Awesome Yury Belkin post btw

[guineapig]

Pics pls. No homo

[khangles]

Comrade pls.

Shameless self promotion

Andrey Malanichev 500kg Squat

It’s time to once again indulge my raging boner for Russian powerlifters with a man who needs little introduction. Andrey Malanichev has the Raw w/ Wraps ATWR total with 1140kg/2513lbs. I’ll let the man and his lifting speak for themselves: Looked easy one could observe. Malanichev always seems to leave plenty in the tank, content to chip away at his own records. The 400kg DL to round out the new WR was as anti climatic as they come but that’s not what this post is about. Big raw squats ar…

Kirill Sarychev Highest Raw Total Ever?

You might think I have a raging hard on for Russian powerlifters after my post on Yury Belkin… Yes its tru I do inappropriately appreciate Russian Powerlifters. Today’s big raging hard on is for another big Russian lifter and they don’t come any bigger than Kirill Sarychev of all time world record raw bench press fame. You’ve probably seen the video but I’m putting it here anyway so we can all appreciate this lift again. Looked submaximal and probably was by a bit. Many russian lifters seem t…

Yury Belkin God of Sumo?

Could watch him pull all day. Really great deadlift battle between him and Cailer Woolam at BOBIV too. If I was him I would’ve added the minimal amount on to the 3rd DL and pulled for the new record but I guess that’s not how he rolls. Anyways the question is what makes/has made him so effective at DL nevermind his other lifts which are literally world (record) class. Besides genetics e.g. limb/lever lengths and proportions, CNS/motor unit activation, muscle insertions etc. What can we learn fr…
