Post Edited: 14.11.2014 @ 15:57 PM by StrengthStudent Neutral grip pull-ups BW+5 x1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 Saw a George Leeman vid where he recommended this rep scheme for pull-ups so I thought I'd give it a try. Wanted to pyramid up to 10 reps before going back down again but 8 was tough so stopped there. Probably should have just gone with body weight only, but still got 64 total reps in which is a ton for me. T-bar rows (only plate weight listed) 70x10,10,10 Facepulls 23.75x12,12,12 Hammer curls 20's x12 Reverse flies 12.5's x8 15's x8 17.5's x8 Incline curls 15's x7,7,7 Lateral raises 15's x8 15's x8 drop set 7.5's x20

Got an absurd amount of pressing volume in today. Bench 40x5 Paused 60x3 P 80x1 P 90x1 P 100x1 P 82.5x12 P 82.5x12 Touch & Go 82.5x12 T&G 82.5x11 T&G 82.5x10 T&G 82.5x9 T&G 82.5x10 T&G 82.5x7 Legs up 82.5x6 "Spoto" 82.5x5 Close grip Got immense hamstring cramps around halfway through these (why I tried benching with legs up). I think I would have been good for a few more reps on the latter sets without that. Seated DB press 22.5's x11 22.5's x10 22.5's x10 22.5's x10 22.5's x9 Incline DB press 30's x7 30's x7 30's x7 30's x6 30's x6 My triceps were ridiculously tired during the incline presses, I can normally hit the 40's for 8+ reps.

T-bar rows (bar weight not listed) 25x8 50x8 70x8 PB 75x6 80x5 82.5x5 PB 60x15 I really like how these feel in my lats. Possibly now my favourite upper back exercise. Dumbbell bench press 30's x8 40's x5 47.5's x4 PB 47.5's x4 37.5's x12 PB Neutral grip pull-ups BW x5 +15 x8 +20 x5 BW x9 wide grip Incline DB curls 15's x6 15's x6 15's x6 12.5's x12 Facepulls 23.75x11 23.75x11 23.75x11 Lateral raises 12.5's x12 12.5's x12 12.5's x12 Nice light bodybuilder-esque session, but I think the upper back work will definitely improve both my deadlift and bench.

Post Edited: 06.11.2014 @ 13:19 PM by StrengthStudent Haven't been logging lately due to being busy. Training has been a bit all over the place, but I'm still putting the work in and hitting PBs. Today's training: Squat 105x5 120x5 Add belt 135x10 PB 142.5x5 150x5 Front squat 105x5 120x1 130x1 PB easy Good mornings (beltless) 40x10 60x10 80x10 PB 90x8 PB Not really done these before, so some default PBs. Trapbar DL 125x5 165x5 Add belt 185x5 205x5 PB Felt good, had a couple of reps in the tank as well. Leg curls 80x10 80x10 70x12 Calf press 5 sets Hamstrings are destroyed right now, hope I can recover for heavy deadlifts on Monday.

Squat 80x5 100x5 120x5 120x5 Strict press 40x5 50x5 60x5 Add belt 67.5x5 Top set was very tough, will try to progress bi-weekly from here. Push press 72.5x3 77.5x3 80x3 Haven't done push press with a barbell in ages, it's definately a lot easier than with a log. 85x3 next time. Deadlift 90x5 120x5 150x5 Add belt 175x5 Very comfortable again, but will continue to add only 2.5kg per week as I'd like to continue making progress without stalling all the way up to 200x5. Incline bench 87.5x7 80x10 80x8 Chin-ups (@87kg gym weight) +22.5x8 +22.5x8 +22.5x8 Reverse flies / lateral raise superset 11.5x10/10 15.5x10/8 15.5x10/8 15.5x10/8

Squat 80x5 100x5 120x5 135x5 Add belt 145x5 Bench 50x5 70x5 80x5 90x5 97.5x5 BB rows 50x5 70x5 80x5 90x5 97.5x5 I can't seem to find a way of doing these that I like. I think I'm going to switch them out for weighted chin-ups as my primary upper back movement. I'll try and throw in some t-bar rows as well. Strict press (paused) 57.5x8 Add belt 57.5x8 57.5x8 Wide grip pull-ups +5x8 +5x8 +5x8 BB curls 40x8 40x8 40x8

Post Edited: 26.10.2014 @ 16:08 PM by StrengthStudent Still not working for me Edit: it's playing now. Looked pretty good mate, one little tweak I might make is pulling the slack out of the bar a bit more. Other than that, solid.

Post Edited: 25.10.2014 @ 22:48 PM by StrengthStudent Split today's workout into two to get more volume in. Bench (paused) 50x5 70x5 80x5 90x5 97.5x3 85x8 BB rows 50x5 70x5 80x5 90x5 97.5x3 85x8 Changing my form around on these, trying to find something that's comfortable and repeatable. ATM it's kinda a cross between a traditional bent over row and a Pendlay row. Strict press (paused & beltless) 55x8 55x8 55x8 BB curls 40x5 47.5x5 47.5x5 Rear delt DB row 12.5x12 21.5x12 21.5x12 Second workout Squat 80x5 100x5 120x5 135x5 Add belt 145x3 120x8 SLDL 140x8 Add belt 145x8 150x8
