Haha - Thanks! I wish it was.

It certainly didn’t feel as fast as it looks. :frowning:

Sun 05/06/11

Made a few changes to experiment a little - (while I can), before I go on a short break.

1.1: MP - wave(2) 7/5/3

115/132/148 - 121/137/154

1.2: 3 Point Complex: repeated 7 times
A. Push Press
7 x 3 @ 176
B. Overhead Med. Ball Throw (kneeling)
5 x 10 @ 17
2 x 8 @ 17
C. Feet elev. Plyo PU
7 x 8 @ BW

(Inbetween 1.1 + 1.2 - 100 band pull-aparts & 100 band face-pulls)

1.3: Triceps (light/pump)
A. Rope Pushdowns (WU) 4 x 10-15
B1. Bench Dips
B2. Lying EZ Ext. 4 x 10-15

Took roughly an hour (maybe 70 min max).

Originally planned to do squats - but playing some bball this arvo.
Dunk vids to come after…

I have no idea why - but I’ve tried every format that you can use to download onto YT and it’s keeps producing a darker image than the original, so apologies for the darkened image.

2nd time doing dunks in about 5 years

1.1: Back Squat - wave load(2) 7/5/3

275/319/352 - 286/330/363

1.2: 3 Point Complex: repeated 7 times
A. Top half Squat from Pins
2 x 5 @ 440
5 x 5 @ 507
B. BB Jump Squat
7 x 10 @ 77
C. Backward sled Accelerations (10m sprint):
3 trips @ 220 sled - coming back on the 3rd my strap broke (almost hitting me in the face) in the mist of chaos I tripped over falling into the weight stand which ultimately put a nice hole in the wall - yay
So changed to low sled push Accelerations (10m sprint)
4 trips @ 55 sled

1.3. Biceps (light/pump)
A. Side Hammer Curl - 3 sets w/u
B. Standing Alt. DB Curl to Standing Alt. Hammer Curl - rep climb

Wanted to go heavier on the Top half Squats but my power rack is scary - I don’t trust it, so because of this I’ve decided to set some goals and ‘earn’ the right to buy a better rack.

I’m not going to go for 1rm’s (maybe a rare single during a wave - but not true max) instead working up to the following maxes:

DL: 507 x 3-5 - good reps
S: 440-507 x 3-5 - good reps
i.e. completely owning the weight.

1.1. Bench Press - wave (2) 7/5/3

209/242/264 - 215/248/275

1.2. 3 point complex: 8 rounds
A1. Decline Bench Press
5 @ 248 x 4, 4, 3, 3
3 @ 231 x 5, 3, 3
A2. 17lb Med. Ball Chest throw - kneeling
8 x 10
A3. Bench Plyo Pushups
6 x 10
2 x 9

inbetween 1.1-1.2: 100 band face pulls

1.3. Triceps
A. Rope Pushdowns (wu) x 4 sets
B. Incline Tricep Ext x 3 sets
C. Dick’s Press 7 x 7

Loved it - arms were left shaking.

Very ordinary today - prob worst session I’ve had in ages, spent a good amount of time back and forth on the toilet this morning and was very tight around the hips, lower back etc. Should have just left it for another day, but I was too stubborn - I’ve now learnt my lesson.

1.1 Warm up/working on form etc.
A1. Hang Clean Pull
A2. Hang Snatch Pull
A3. Bent Row
descending reps 6-5-4-3-2-1

1.2 Deadlift - wave (2) 7/5/3

352/407/452 - 363/419/468*

*made a terribly stupid error on the pull, got the lower back flaming wasted all the foam rolling and stretches I did to get hip mobility.

Did glute bridges etc to try and get feeling back.

1.3. 3 point complex
A1. Rack Pull
2 @ 529 x 3
A2. Jump Good-morning
2 @ 77 x 10
A3. Sled Accelerations
2 @ 220 x 2 trips

repeated twice - back was blown -

Planned on doing biceps - but had the shits.

So yeh - annoying session, it’s annoying because the BP,MP and Squat days are improving each session but the DL seems to be getting worse. I’ll have to make some changes for next week - make amends.

Was out to make amends after the poor session on Fri.

1.2 3 point Complex - repeated 7 times
