Good Lord, this is going to hurt day
Zercher 5x135, 5x175, 3x205, 3x225, 2x235
leg Press 10x3pps, 10x4pps, 2x6x5pps
walking DB lung 3x9sidex25s ( that’s the hurt part)
Seated ham curl 2x20
I went back through my logs since I have been back post surgery and found that I had done 3 cycles of zerchers, snatch grip DL and CGBP and it was in the following cycle of conv dl, squats and BP that all my lifts moved up…so its basically what I am doing now and I will switch back 6 weeks prior to the Aug meet and see if they bump up ( or recover in the case of BP) again.
Sounds like a solid plan OG. One of the best things about logging online as opposed to in writing which I did for over 20 years, much quicker and easier to go back and look and compare training.
What Dave said, Paul. Great to be able to go back and see what made progress.
Are you setting any specific goals for the push/pull? Or just gonna go blast it?
Dave- Agreed and thanks for stopping by
Skip- No goals yet, when I get into meet prep which is only going to be the last 6 weeks…then I’ll see where I am at. After last meets embarrassment, I’m taking the approach that I am going to enjoy lifting and be thankful I can…of course before the meet I will become that over analyzing, out thinking, maniacal dope…

Tired today, had deep tissue yesterday and the next workout always suffers…plus it was my son’s 23rd birthday so the family went out for dinner and we had a few beers. It was worth it, he’ll be leaving soon so the time with me him is awesome…man I wish I could reset the clock and spend another 20 with him… even if he only says 2 words…actually it was 3…
Peace
Heck, I get that way over a regular workout. You should have been in my head before I got to the gym last night. On second thought, it’s best that you weren’t. What goes on in my head would drive most folks insane.
Three words!? Cool! I can barely get that out of my 10 year old. Since all of my kids claim they are never going to move out, though, I might be the one moving.
OG, be sure to read today’s main article on the home page.
hahaha… so basically , if I understand that article…all the strong guys who post here aren’t getting any!!!
And now we know who is!!! My next meet will be a disaster , but with a smile!
OG: There was no last meet embarrassment. You showed up, didn’t the best you had in you that day. That’s all we can do!
I’m the same way about meets. Vow to just “enjoy the experience,” but then fall prey to my internal intensity and competitiveness and high expectations when the time comes.
OG, now that you know all the tricks of meet preparation …
Don’t change… I enjoy your attitude and fire !
