Well, after an entire month of back pain, I finally got back to full duty. Ouch. Good to be back.
Squats: 205 keep Bench: 175 MR, keep DL: 300 up 5 (took it easy, was about time for a reset anyway) Pullups: 2x8 w/ 45 inc reps if possible Tri ext: 2x8 w/95 keep Abs: done |
how ya feel afterwards?
|
Ha..
I felt fine, my legs were shot though. Not as bad today, but I'll definitely still be feeling them tomorrow. Good thing I'm not lifting again till monday. The cycle is gonna feel great though... |

It's becoming very apparent that it's time for me to find a new program. It was actually probably time a while ago, but due to injuries and time off I kept at it. Squats hardly progress, bench is done, overheads are done, rows have been inconsistent, and deadlifts are basically stuck (remember that all of the weights I'm using right now are after resets, and I still haven't gotten back to where I was beforehand). So, long story short, I'm going to look for another program. I'm actually seriously considering more of an endurance program, partially because I'm cutting but mainly because I'm a competitive cyclist and runner. Additionally, the strength I've built up now will be complimented nicely with some endurance work for the summer I have ahead of me at OCS (boot camp, basically). So, I'll be searching for programs and up to looking at any suggestions.
Today's work? Squat: 210 keep, but start using belt again Bench: 175 STILL missed that last rep, keep I suppose DL: 310 up 5 started using wrist straps.. nice. Pullups: 2x9, 1x7 with 45lb Abs: done |
what do you do when you get stuck? do you just keep hammering at the same weight? if so...change it up...throw on some heavier weight for some doubles...keeps ya from being bored...eric recommended it for me...and hopefully it will work out great...
myself i can't stand lifting the same weight two weeks in a row...i gotta do something different. |
Well you are dieting arent you? Hmm maybe your cals are too low? are you dropping weight quickly? The other thing is if your a runner/cyclist you may be overdoing it a bit too if you are training hard at that aswell.
The only other thing I can suggest is to play around with the rep ranges a bit too, maybe try some triples for a while and by the time that stalls the weights you were failing on at 3x5 will be easy.Just my .02c :) |
