Beached Whale Chronicles 2009
As with all new years, it is a time to change: I believe that New Year resolutions are for lazy people, so my “goals” for 2009 are the same as what they have always been: to stay healthy and get strong. Starting of 2009, my maxes on the following key lifts are: Height: 5’7 Body Weight: 200 lbs Flat Bench Press: 105 kgs / 231 lbs Squat: 159 kgs / 350 lbs Deadlift: 175 kgs / 385 lbs Overhead Squat: 70 kgs / 155 lbs Military Press: 80 kgs / 175 lbs Pull-up 3RM: BW + 25 lbs Youtube videos can be found here: http://youtube.com/user/anuj247 I hope the New Year brings success to everyone and I really hope the world becomes a better place soon. Cheers :) |
Winter 2009 Training Mesocycle 3 - Week 2 Extra Workout Beginning Thoughts: Happy New Year, everybody :)Workout: Overhead Squats:Videos: Overhead Squats, Rope Chin-ups & Facepulls:Overall Impression: I think today was one of those workouts which looks good on paper but is really shitty in feeling. I know that my OH Squat strength has improved greatly but at the same time, I couldn't seem to get my groove quite so easily today and that bothered me. The rest of the workout was pretty good actually. |
Good stuff , Wolf.
Your maxs sure have come up greatly and to think you almost stopped working out because of your shoulder , now look at you ! |
Winter 2009 Training Mesocycle 3 - Week 3 Deadlift Day Beginning Thoughts: I've been very sick over the last few days. I have been taking my medicines, etc but they've left me feeling very drowsy. Plus, the plates I use to deadlift in Bombay are very small compared to my bumpers at Trinity..so it felt awkward at first to get a good ROM - it was sort of like doing Deficit Deadlift singles. My medicines didn't help me to focus either.Workout: Deadlift Singles:Videos: Deadlifts:Overall Impression: I hope next week's workout goes better..... |
So you did heavy deads then banded deads then heavy deads?!? That seems like a bit overkill to me.

Fall 2008 Training Mesocycle 3 - Week 3 Press Day Beginning Thoughts: I am feeling a bit better today....I think I will be fine in a couple of days. The medicines seem to be working.Workout: Incline Press Singles:Videos: Press:Overall Impression: I think today was a great press session. I haven't had such a good session in quite a while. |
Thats some strong pressing there Wolf. Very controlled.

Fall 2008 Training Mesocycle 3 - Week 3 Squat Day Beginning Thoughts: Still sick and now possibly injured too...Workout: Speed Squats:Videos: Nothing for today.Overall Impression: I am currently icing my quad and I am trying to figure out how this could have happened. I did all my warm-ups with mobility drills, etc. I have been doing these consistently. I haven't been stretching post workout. Perhaps this is a factor. Also, when I do my unilateral squats, lets say that I am squatting using my left leg, I involuntarily tighten my right leg and I get a cramp exactly in the same place as this current pain is originating from. Maybe I aggravated this. In any case, I will try to rest and if I feel good I'll go back to the gym and finish up this workout tomorrow. If I don't get better in a couple of days, I'll go see the doctor. |
