30 minutes of intervals today
Averaging 9km at low block and 17km at high block
Towards the end I had to reduce my speed to 7 and 12km as I was pretty gassed but I kept the incline at 5% for high blocks.
Was a fun time.
Also listening to David goggins helps
So nearly two weeks ago I decided to take a plunge and actually pay for a program, rather than try to modify ones etc. So I’m running Sb 911 (since last Monday) and I’m loving it. Not changing anything and sticking to it like a T. Something about purchasing something that makes me hold myself accountable.
4 day split, two upper and two lower, 3x3 week cycles, a deload and a testing week. I feel like I have a concrete goal now to smash some PBs
Incline DB ecc
3x5 w 32.5kg
1x50 as fast as possible 20kg
2a. Lat pull down 4x12
2b. Face pull 4x12
Med delt Massacre 3 sets
100 curls and extensions for time
There’s challenges each week which are cool and keep my kicking ass, and I’ve been consistently running these hill intervals. This Saturday I’ll do a long flat run and see where I’m at. Maybe a 5km time trial
Worked to heavy set of 7 with 95kg
Then dropped to a set of 10 with 85kg
Dips with 12.5kg added, 4 sets of 12-15
Db rows 4x10 with 45kg
Super set with iso YWT for 20sec each position. Weighted for two sets and then just the weight of my arms after that. Fuck that was tough.
I get told I take steroids a bit or people just don’t believe me… But then they see my weak ass bench and it’s all in balance.
Weight training for 5 or 6 years,
Training with a purpose for probably 4?
Last year was when it all started clicking though being around a proper coach and competitive power lifters and strong men/women
Broccoli actually uproots itself and runs away when it senses that I’m near haha
Bb Bulgarian split squat 3x3 with 6sec descent. 70kg, 80kg, 70kg. I was conservative with each set to really get the full six seconds, definitely could touch and go 100kg I think, at least for a rep or two
Then two Max time iso holds unweighted
Back extensions with 30kg 4x10
Cossack squats 2x10
Anti rotation alphabet 2x
Max distance farmers walks in 3mins with 32kg kettle bells just to recall trash my grip haha
5k Flat intervals, 25min 12sec PR for me. 9km/h low, 18km/h high on average. Was struggling to keep the pace towards the end, but good to see some running progression. The first two blocks on 18km/h were reasonably comfortable tbh
