First log here, so excuse me if i’m not sure of the norm in regards to content and layout.

Age - 21
Height - 6 Foot 1
Weight - 166lbs
BF% - No idea, look at my pics and decide.

Training history wise, i’ve done 5/3/1 for the majority of my 4 years training except for the first year of fucking around and 6 months out due to being injured. During the majority of time on my last diet I trained mountain dog style now I am attempting to mix the two.

Best Lifts ORM (Circa 2011 Pre Injury)

Dead - 187.5k
Squat - 162.5k
Bench - 122.5k
M Press - 80k

Current LIfts ORM

Dead - 140k
Front Squat - 90k
Bench - 105k
M Press - 67.5k (estimated)

Goals

  1. Get to 185lbs or above by 2014 whilst staying as lean as possible as this was my weight before I dieted and was chubby.
  2. Get Dead up to 180k by 2014.
  3. Get Front Squat up to 110-115k by 2014.
  4. Bench 140k by 2015.
  5. Get M Press back up to 80k by 2014.
  6. Avoid aggravating disc at all costs.

I am currently natural, will probably stay that way until i’m 25. Longterm goal of looking like Arnold :smiley:

Current Split

M Press 5/3/1 & Mountain Dog Shoulders
Dead 5/3/1 & Mountain Dog Back
Bench 5/3/1 & Moutain Dog Chest
Arms
Front Squat 5/3/1 & Mountain Dog Legs

Rest days are taken when needed and I do at least 3 sessions of fasted cardio a week.

Yup so awesome that I seem to have fucked my shoulder already lol.

They were tight yesterday cause I did a lot of incline benching the day before but reaching for a frying pan last night seems to have crushed it.

Hope to god it gets better, got legs to do this afternoon and I dread to think what clean grip front squats will do to it.

Ouch thats too bad, but hope for your sake that it heals up quick.

Perhaps a day or two off the weights might help?

Can you elaborate? Are these a drop set? Rest pause? Partials?
