As an update, 5s week rolled around again. Did Squat this morning and got in a 10lb and 1 rep PR on the opening salvo
Also beat the previous time by around 20 seconds.
Showing some awesome progression on this training cycle, BUT, if you were to ONLY look at my main work, it’d look like a complete failure. I keep dropping weight and reps there. WHICH, is an important reminder to remember what Dan John said: “The goal is to keep the goal the goal”. I am DEMOLISHING my supplemental work, my body and appetite are growing uncontrollably, and I’m on my way to my goals.
I AM dealing with a muscle tear at the moment, which limits my deadlifting
Been doing a lot of SSB good mornings on deadlift days as a work around, and getting in reps where I can.
This workout in particular included my usual brand of insanity as far as assistance and conditioning goes
And the weekend included probably the hardest workout I’ve had in quite a while, which beat the hell out of me
So yeah…Beefcake is still awesome, as is running the Malcolm X method.
