Ok, so I'm back on 5/3/1... starting out a bit light.

5/3/1 MP
5@45kg
5@50kg
9@55kg

Pullups
Shame... just trying to get 5 sets of whatever reps currently.

DB bench
8@30kg
8@30kg
8@30kg

DB rows
20@40kg

Dips
8@BW
8@BW

Over exam block and end of semester I lost about 4kg, so I'm not feeling as strong as I did... should be right though.

 

[Skeptic]

I'm gonna stop being a ***** bitch. Doing 5/3/1, but I'm doing magnusson/ortmayer deadlift cycle on deadlift day.

Deads
4x4@120kg
2x2@140kg
8@120kg

My problem with deadlifting is getting the bar moving, so for every rep of every set today (minus the last 120kg) bar stopped and reset myself. I didn't bother going over the 8 reps in the last set, I know I had a bunch more in me, I was more concerned about the other sets, I'll push the boundaries of that set in coming weeks.

EDIT: lol @ P-ussy being censored and bitch not being censored!

good session skippyyyyyyyy xoxooxox. keep at it.

 

[Storm]

good job skippy, any specific goal for deadlift?

 

[Skeptic]

Current goal is a 200+kg deadlift. That's what I'm pushing for right now lol.

 

[Skeptic]

Just did some cardio.

Current goal is a 200+kg deadlift. That's what I'm pushing for right now lol.

That's great, i have that same goal atm, just trying to reach that doing 5-3-1 (tested 194Kg single) no specific deadlift routine yet although oatmayer's sounds tempting...in a painful way lol.
Good luck, i'll be watching!

 

[Skeptic]

Hehe, I just need to work on my deadlift a LOT! Hopefully it will give it a kick in the guts.

Ok so it looks like I'm back in here... had to give the gym a miss for a few weeks due to lack of funds, but I was trying to keep the bodyweight training going. Finally found a job, I'm gonna be a BP servo dude ahahahahaha lets hear it for graveyard shifts!!!

Yesterday
5/3/1 Squats cycle 1 week 1
3@135kg
3@145kg
3@155kg
Experimented with a lower bar position and wider stance... felt really ****ing solid. Didn't want to go over the 3 reps the first week back, I'll wait for the 5-3-1 week to test myself. Still having major wrist issues, I've found I'm not having as much of an issue if I don't wrap my thumb around the bar and keep my hand a bit more open.... good or bad idea?

front Squats
10@60kg
10@60kg
10@60kg

Gym closed.

Today
5/3/1 MP Cycle 1 week 1
3@45kg
3@50kg
11@55kg
I did these last week also, but I wasn't able to get anything else done in the week so I thought I'd restart.

I did 2 sets of 4 pullups, I tried to do more but there were so many people using the bars I could only fit in 2 sets.

DB rows
8@50kg
8@50kg
8@50kg
Grip nearly gave out on the last set.

Dips BW = approx 96kg
6@BW+15kg
6@BW+15kg
8@BW

Stretched and done... feels great to be back.

 

[Storm]

Glad to see you back to it.

 

[Skeptic]

Thanks mate! It's good to be back, I just hope I can find a way to train around work.

 

[El Freako]

Good to see you're still lifting dude!

 

[Skeptic]

Thanks man! What are your thoughts on my grip issue with squats?

 

[El Freako]

Its called suicide grip and isn't too uncommon. If its giving you the most solid form then I'd stick with it.

 

[Skeptic]

Sweet deal, look for big squat gains soon.
