Done
Finished the 3 month challenge, I enjoyed the volume without hitting PR sets! Was fun and would definitely run it again if size was the goal for me!
I took a deload week with the plan to test 1 rep maxes in anticipation of chasing some long term goals!
Anyway went rock climbing and completely peeled two fingers on my right hand so haven’t been int he gym for 10 days now!
No point going back too early and just have it happen again!
They have healed up alright, not going to deadlift for another week but will be back squatting, benching and pressing in a few days!
The longer term goals I have set myself are as follows:
500lb (227.5kg) deadlift
385lbs (175kg) squat
To achieve this I plan on doing a 3 day week program (any recommendations helpful) with the squats and deadlifts plus accessories on there own day with the pressing movements on the same day plus accessories!
So my finger took a lot longer to heal than I first thought and I have since only trained a handful of times!
Hit:
100kg (220lbs) bench press x2
135kg (300lbs) squat x3
200kg (440lbs) deadlift X1
Deadlift was strong and a beltless PR
Going to test with belt after a few weeks of introducing a belt!
