Re: Pickle's comeback log- not hard but moist.

Who can tire of 5/3/1?

everyone, its too few sets, too many days, not enough frequency luuuuuuulz


on advanced 5*5 i get to squat 3 times a week on the intro
clean twice a week
bench twice a week
and there are no choice for me to make its all there, all that goodness and im reducing my weights days by 1 per week. winnnnnnn

Bump~

Im still training just not to any sort of regime. Ill boot up the log to get my motivation up and to try to be accountable to a regime. If KR is doing it ill do it. xx

Currently 93kg
Snatch 80kg
powerclean 110kg
Squat 180kg
Deads (I dont dead)
Bench 130kg

Ill burst a few of those fairly quick (im looking at u snatch that Pr was from my second session doing them) I just have to stay injury free and make sure I gym 3 times a week (which i havent been doing)

Gonna train like this
Monday- Snatches 8-10 sets 1-3 reps and squats 5 sets 5-6 reps + Accessories
Wednesday- Power Cleans 5-6 sets of 5-6 reps and Bench press 8-10 sets of 1-3 reps +Accessories
Friday- Squats 8-10 sets of 1-3 reps and Bench press 5-6 sets of 5-6 reps + Accessories

Accessories will be out of chinups, Pushups, GHR,Stiff leg deadlifts, Skull Crushers, Push Press, Curls, Fatboy chins, seated row and ab work. Ill probably do them with higher reps less sets and maybe pick 2 per session. Ill decide next week. xoxox

 

[dilatedmuscle]

You should deadlift, build some buns of steel.

120kg*5
130kg*5

Push Press
warmups then
60kg*5
65kg*5
70kg*5

by the end of the heavier sets if im not focused i can often drop down in the catch so it becomes less like the above video and more like the olympic variety. But Im getting better and thats usually not until the last set and last 1or2 reps the rest are all power cleans.

 

[Hypocrisy86]

Sexy video man.

[ironheart]

great squats and snatches pickle!

 

[knight_rider]

good work pickle, love the @lol hahaha. Still jealous of them squats

 

[Skeptic]

Are you doing 5/3/1 for squats??

 

[Pickle]

thanks for stopping by fellas.

skippy,
nah 5/3/1 sucks. I squat twice a week, olympic lift twice a week, bench twice a week. I could do that in 5/3/1 template but id have to look at doing singles and doubles after the initial 5/3/1 sets complicated. I'll look into it if i plateau. I doubt that will happen for a while tho im enjoying training too much and loving my low rep and medium rep days.

Power cleans
75*5,80*5,85*5,90*5,95*5 Didn't even go down in the catch so all were power clean style. very happy with that especially when 95kgs is > bw

Bench Press warmups then
110kg 7 sets of 3. 112.5kg 1*3 Felt really good. will do bulk of sets with 112-115kg next week and should get 3 reps each set.
superset with 6 sets of seated row @ lol
High rows 3 sets @ lol

One arm db tricep overhead superset with db preach curl 15kg 4*12 (had to do forced reps to get last 2 sets of curls...but then i never curl)

out

pretty happy with that session. 9/10

TOmmorrow I have low rep squats and medium reps on bench.
