Full Body Training - Workout A - Week 2
Overall Impression:
Merry Christmas, everyone!
Today's workout was pretty good.. Im very happy with my deadlifts. I've been hogging food. Unfortunately though, I ate my last meal 4 hours before my workout and I took too long of a nap before my workout. This kind of drained me of any energy. Thats not cool. I will try and avoid something like this happening again.
Other than the food intake timing mini-fiasco, there's nothing else special to report, guys and gals. Workout:
Deadlifts
225 lbs x 5 reps
245 lbs x 5 reps
255 lbs x 5 reps
245 lbs x 3 reps
225 lbs x 3 reps
Im trying to think of what would be better to do next week. I want to sort of alternate perhaps between weeks of high poundage work and low poundage work. perhaps this a good idea. I'll see. For now, my goal next week will be to do 2 sets of 5 reps with 255 and perhaps use a similar pyramiding system where i pyramid up and then down. I will try and take a few vids of my deadlifts next week (exclusive to bb.net)
Bench Press
Speed Strength Work
70% of 1RM
145 lbs x 3 reps x 6 sets
I want to do something different next time. I might try a few singles with 200 or so. It depends on how beat up I feel after deadlifts.
Bulgarian Squats
40 lbs x 8 reps x 2 sets
Next week I am going to take a vid for critique (exclusing for bb.net)
Ab Work
- Hanging Leg Raises = 2 sets x 10 reps x 8 kgs dumbbell (17.6 lbs)
- Over Head Plate Side Bends = 2 sets x 10 reps x 5 kgs plate (11 lbs)
I am keeping the volume and intensity relatively low. I do not want to have sore abs for my squat workout in 2 days. But I am proud of myself for finally taking some initiative in training teh abzz. haha.
Shoulder Prehab Dip Shrugs
This is for my shoulder prehab work. I will be doing 1-2 shoulder prehab exercises per workout. It's not too intense. Thanks for reading, y'al!! I would like to wish everyone a very merry christmas Have a great day
