Member 4928, 6 posts SQ 175, BP 107.5, DL 200 482.5 kgs @ 64.9kgs UnEq	Hi, Thought I would post up my training here to motivated me to keep a more detailed log of my progress! BW - 64.9kg Current PBS Squat - 175kg Bench - 107.5kg Deadlift - 200kg Goals Squat - 180kg Bench - 110kg Deadlift - 205kg Fed: GBPF Div: YNE Ill start logging my training where I am at now. I am currently in the middle of a comp cycle as I thought I was comepting on the 8th December but that fell through. However, I had already started with the heavy comp weights so I decided to continue. So here we go from yesterdays session: 13/11/13 Squats (Explosive/Technique) - Warm up - 5 x 20kg, 3 x 40kg, 2 x 60kg, 80kg Working Sets - 12 x 2 reps x 102.5kg (60% 1RM). Comments - I was pausing the reps for the first 3 sets but this seemeed to be pulling my right glute/hamstring. I stopped doing this and jsut going for speed and this alleviated the problem. Bench (Heavy) - Warm up 5 x 20kg 40kg, 2 x 60kg, 70kg, 80kg Working sets - 2 x 85kg (80% 1RM), 2 X 92.5kg(86%), 2 x 100kg(92.5%), 2 x 105kg (97.5%), 1 x 105kg (97.5) Comments - Little finger on ring at 85kg and 92.5kg, ring finger on ring for 100kg and 105kg. The single performed for the last set was compelted due to my spotter grabbing the bar slightly early. Accessory Work DB Floor Press - 20kg x 22 reps, 18 reps Superset Chest supported rows/Rear Delt Flyes - 4 x 12 x 40kg/10kg Power Shrugs - 8 x 80kg, 100kg, 110kg, 120kg Zottmann Curls - 4 x 10 x 10kg Incline Crunches - 4 x 12 x 10kg Main Lifts Volume - 4285kg Accessory Lifts Volume - 7060kg Total Volume - 11345kg 14/11/13 Fitness (Aerobic specific) (a) 5 minute warm up (b) 25 minutes fartlek training (c) Stretching/mobility routine

Bench Press 5 x 52.5kg, 62.5kg, 72.5kg, 87.5kg, 97.5kg - Little finger inside the ring for first 3 sets, little finger on the ring for the 87.5kg set, ring finger on the ring for 97.5kg. Power Shrugs/BB Curls (Superset) 4 x 8 reps x 110kg/30kg - Power Shrugs twice a week is too much so this will substituted with an appropriate replacement next week. Lat Pulldown/Face Pulls - 4 x 12 reps x 40kg/25kg, 45kg/30kg, 50kg/30kg, 50kg/30kg Weighted Hypers/Weighted Abs - 4 x 12 x 10kg/10kg Main Lifts - 5972.5kg Accessory - 9640kg Total - 15612.5kg 17/11/13 Fitness session Main aim - mixture of aerobic and anerobic conditioning in preparation for the more specific track session I have coming up. 200m walk 600m jog 400m effort 4 x 50m sprint/50m jog 5 x 25 bounds up a set of stairs 90 second effort run/90 sec recovery 60 second effort run/60 sec recovery 30 second effort run/30 sec recovery 1.5km cooldown 200m walk back to starting point Dynamic stretching Static Stretching I felt quite quick along the sprint sessions and my fitness was nowhere near as bad as I first thought! Progress is good. 18/11/13 Deadlift 60kg x 3 reps 80kg x 3 100kg x 1 120kg x 1 140kg x 1 160kg x 1 170kg x 1 180kg x 1 190kg x 1 202.5 x 1 x F 195kg x 1 162.5kg x 4 155kg x 5 Bench Press 20kg x 5 40kg x 3 60kg x 1 70kg x 1 80kg x 1 90kg x 1 102.5kg x 3 92.5kg x 4 85kg x 5 This session was meant to be much more involved but I have a new training partner entering the fold so it ended up just having some fun. Turns out he has put 20kg on his deadlift in 6 weeks plus 2.5kg on his bench so he is making some decent progress!

For the 13 weeks Ill be wearing knee wraps for the heavier sets and some of the rep days. This is to allow me to keep up with my fitness work and take some of the pounding of my knees.
