Re:Time for a kick up the backside... 18 November 2009 18:47 (permalink)
Well, at the rate at which my bodyweight was decreasing, not too long!
I reckon a 92.5kg strict press will be doable before my 22nd birthday (february), depends how Xmas training goes.

I would do dips, but can't with my setup unfortauntely. Usually do them 6ft up in the air using my rack, but low ceiling prevents that!

How you diong anyway matey?

    I am now down to 90kg from 93kg, and my strength seems to have remained, as I am a lot leaner.

    Neck is still 17" taped which is usually a good sign.

    I expect a strict OHP exceeding bodyweight before the NY!

      Hmm... that's going to be a close one matey, I'll be going home on the 18th Decemeber, so depends on whether I take my weights with me or if i have a surge of strength by then!

        Squat depth looked deeeep and form in general looks good on that still.
        150 for sure.

              Ab-sow-looooot-ley no chance. Did you not hear the squeel?


              Good session tonight, wanted to be done in 45mins and I was.
              Bench felt a little tough, but not sure if that's down to me still recovering or the fact I've not eaten much today (had a big presentation early afternoon which I was slightly anxious about!)..... More than likely both!

              20/11

              Bench

              105 x 3
              105 x 3
              105 x 3 ... added two extra sets

              Weighted Chins

              +5kg x 3
              (27 in total)

              Single Leg Calf Raise
              +5kg x 10
              +5kg x 10
              +5kg x 10

              BB Curl

              32.5 x 12
              32.5 x 12


              Happy days. Next session won't be until tuesday, possibly wednesday so threw in a couple extra sets on the bench.

                    DV, the whole point of me training the way I am is so I can bench + mp a total of three times a week, maybe even four. I'm aiming to get 3 or 4 sessions in a week, whole body, 40mins or so first thing in the morning. This may be total bollocks but something I'm going to try for another 3-4weeks. More sessions, moderate weight, = ?? Just an experiment atm

                    Jedi, I've dropped 130kg onto them before (from a reasonable height), just a couple months ago. First proper test for them and they survived... allbeit with a small dent!!

                        35 x 10


                        Squats felt v. difficult today. Lack of kcals today and yesterday won't have helped. After first and second set I was seeing stars.
                        Overhead press on the other hand felt rather good. Pleased with 70x5 after the 3x3 and bodes well for the next couple of weeks.
                        Seeing as though AK and DV were disputing the legitimacy of my pressing last week I recorded a 70kg set which I'll post up in abit... should make a nice change instead of all the squatting videos!

                          Nice work, regarding my last comment..... sounds fine and a worthwhile plan/experiment. Can't push the limit on multiple sessions PW

                                Love the use of the cushions PMSL.... the joys of training at home

                                Good reps, right down to the chest too, fair dos.

                                      Chins
                                      50 reps over 9 sets

                                      30 x 12

                                      30 x 12



                                      Took 65mins today as I seemed to be busy organising my social life inbetween sets.... joys of training at home
                                      Bench felt pretty hard, which is abit gutting seeing as though its a 5kg decrease from my pb just 4weeks ago.
                                      Chins seemed to take an age, forearms totally pumped to the point of being completely numb. They felt as though I had zero back strength too... ah well, gotta' keep plodding along.

                                      One or two days rest now, then another squat/ohp session on friday/sat.

                                        TBH I 'feel' the weight on BP more than any other exercise, and it always kills my performance if I'm not 110% there mentally, nothing else suffers that way, so I feel your anguish.

                                        Good work tho, 9 sets of chins AND curls, no wonder your forearms hurt!
