So as we approach year-end, I have been doing the usual pondering of what I want to achieve next year. As often discussed in this log, I am a humble ActivitiesGuy with no real fitness ambition other than “be strong and fit” as well as “use working out as a means to let out some of life’s other stressors.”

I achieved my goal of a 600-pound deadlift this year. As I did so, my body weight crept upwards into the high 220’s. While I am not terribly displeased with my current physique, I certainly would like to be somewhat leaner, and thus my 2018 goal will be to match and exceed that 600-pound deadlift at a lighter body weight, somewhere around 215.

In the past, my approach to leaning down has always involved increased training volume and being hungry a lot. At this time, for various personal reasons, that would prove difficult, so my intent is to run an old favorite - the Daily Dose Deadlift program - supplemented with one day of squats and one day of running or yoga per week.

M: Deadlift 6x1x405
T: Deadlift 6x1x405
W: Deadlift 6x1x405
R: Deadlift 6x1x405
F: Deadlift 1x525+
S: Hot Yoga Class
S: Front Squat 2x315+

Over the next two weeks, we will be doing some traveling for the holidays and whatnot, so I will begin this in earnest on January 8.

I suppose the declared target will be to pull north of 600 pounds at a body weight under 215 pounds by July 1.
