hey Fish Did you actually do 25 reps with 500 on DL? or am I reading that wrong? We also weigh the same, how tall are you?

When you do get video man cause that would be inspirational for sure.
Yes I am old and I saw the .25, but I kind of had hopes.

405x20 would be pretty damn amazing. Really like what you’ve got going on in here.

Thanks that is what I am shooting for.
whew…i was about to say if you did 500x25, post that video and become a T-Nation legend!
I almost shat myself for a second…because I read from the bottom up, I was about to say he Fischer must be feeling real good!
Foam roll, gravity boot work.
pushups (25) pullups (10) hanging leg raises (10) sprint 40 yrds. Rest 1 minute repeat for a total of 5.

Foam roll gravity boots again.
Did a complex of weights toaday doing some exercises 1 rep of each hands on bar whole time.
barbell = 135lbs.
row (clean grip)
deadlift (clean grip)
clean
front sqaut (clean grip)
press (clean grip)
back sqaut (clean grip -very tight on shoulders here)
press (clean grip)
return in the manner of a stiffleg deadlift.
start over when barbell touches the floor.
did 5 sets of 5 thats a total of 150 reps
felt real good doing these -great work capacity builder here. Will start doing these on the off days (3 days a week)
This is how we train guys who fade while training (do 1 lift strong then nothing) or for MMA guys we lighten load-usually use a 75lb sandbag or heavy bag add more reps in for muscular aerobic endurance.
Edit: credit goes to Dan John for teaching me these.
Edit: Rest periods were 2 minutes–for MMA/combat athletes 1 minute going down to 45 seconds to help worjk on recovery.
Your log is a wealth of information.
Solid work Fischer.
PS: I tried your crazy calf routine (100 reps) and failed large. 68 was all I got.
My God, it’s an epidemic of crazy hi volume stuff. My Sheiko, Old Goat’s Dan John and now you. Impressive.
I’m not sure what you mean by “Guys who fade while training”.
I like the looks of the complex.

Ok with this question it is important to note what the training effect the persom is after. Most people into powerlifting always train 1 main max effort lift a day right? Like Westside or a lot of periodizatin routines or even 5/3/1 which were all familiar with.
So when they go to a meet after their 1 week deload they are usually fried after the squat, so they barely get through the bench and are hoping not to injure themselves on the deadlift let alone set a PR.
We do these complexes 2 x week to help build their work capacity and recovery to help them lift strong on the bench/deadlift in competition–make sense?
Ask alot of powerlifters about how they feel coming into the 3rd lift (deadlift) especially after making a weight cut if they were looking forward to the pull…
I am actually cringing thinking about all the lifters taking offense to this, seriously though ask Kevin about what kind of shape he was in while wreslting and to now. Lifting and wrestling(greco-roman) are real close with energy systems they utilize. The question would be when you were in wrestling shape how many matches in a tournament you could compete competively in, compared to out of shape kevin?—Answer is huge
Edit: kevin is kmcnyc
I get it. Makes total sense.
Guess I’ve never considered what was needed to build/recover the energy system after a ME session.
Always thought there wasn’t much you could do for the CNS or ATP stores other than rest/eat. Pre-conditioning, if that’s what it is, makes sense.
