GuineaPig’s Training Log - Hunt 300 Deadlift

16/7/18

So begins the unpredictable training schedule. Not anywhere near the best case scenario but I gotta work with what I got. Little sleep last night mostly because of the World Cup Final and all liquid nutrition pre workout. Not gonna set up a self fulfilling bad workout prophecy. Might end up being a good sesh tonight. We’ll see

Planning to hit up some upper body at Doherty’s Bendigo. Might throw in some ez squats too. I think there was a DIY SSB hiding in the back somewhere. In the interest of saving time might try bringing back in super sets. Wasn’t too long ago when I was more towards just bodybuilding that I’d superset everything.

Comp Bench 2 @ 80,90,100

Incline DB Bench 5 Sets
SupaSet
Chest Supported Rows 5 Sets
Massive pump from pumping out the reps on DBs but went quick through and burned out rapidly. Tried a couple of chest Supported row machines and also one of those fancy handle attachments on the cable row

Safety Squat Bar

Lot of random reps with the SSB throwing in some pauses and upping the weight. Weird feeling because my balance is all forward with it. Mostly just hurts my shoulders because it sits strangely and presses down on the bony bits of my shoulder.

Not sure if it actually works my back more or I just misgroove it more often or it’s just awkward more than useful. Pauses actually felt better because I could concentrate on balancing the weight and nailing my positioning.

If it didn’t smash my shoulders it might actually be barely alright.

Right now seems like just another movement pattern to learn that could interfere with my regular squat instead of what I was hoping for which was something I could rep out for days and work everything nicely but save my shoulders.

Might go with regular squats or fronts instead
