Stretching or foam rolling all around before a workout is what I’d do. Before bed stretching it can help.

Had a good workout, weights moved good. Had to hurry at the end of the workout and do the deadlifts in somewhat of a rush. Gym was closing…

Warmup:
SLDL 3x10 60kg
crunches 3x10 5kg plate
Front squat 3x10 50kg

Main stuff:
Comp squat- 4x5 105kg
Comp bench- 4x5 80kg
shoulder press- 3x8 22,5kg
Comp style deadlift- 4x5 105kg
planks with weight 4x 30seconds (15kg,25kg,20kg,30kg.)

I lost one wrist wrap, hopping i lost it at the gym and not somewhere outside. Ill go and check tomorrow. :frowning:

Found the wrist wraps,
i’ll post the rest of training from this week friday.
Training has bin good tho, coach adjusted my bench lift to work together with work better since shoulders where tired out. This feels better.

I’ll make a longer log. i’ll give my thoughts on my coach too, (as of now, 4th week in.)
Happy reading

DL looks good. Squat is ok, but work on keeping your glutes squeezed: you aren’t sitting back so much as pushing your butt out and then dropping and your butt tucks under you.

keep the glutes squeezed during the entire squat?

Pretty much. Here’s how I do it:

  • as I unrack, I squeeze my glutes to bring my hips under me
  • then I walk it out, if I’m walking it out
  • I squeeze my glutes again, and hold that squeeze hard
  • take my air, squeeze down on my air
  • push my hips back while keeping my glutes squeezed
  • push knees out and sit down, still squeezing my glutes

Thanks for the tips, i’ll apply them next time i squat.
I think with the form progress i’m making, and strength progress, i’ll be making some big PR’s come mockmeet in december.

In gym -18:00
First real set up paused squats 4x8 85kg. 18:33
Comp bench 2 sec paused on chest 4x5 80kg. 18:55
Dumbell incline bench 4x10 19:16
Deficit deadlift 4x5 (these felt like shit.) 107,5kg 19:25
19:45-20:07 pendlay rows/hanging legg raises.

Thought i’dd try out showing the times, i don’t like it.
Good news tho! This friday is the last at my shitty job, starting at a new one next monday.
The hours here are just to bad imo. And i calculated i’ll earn a whole 70Euro’s less if i start working at the other company starting next monday. Which isnt to bad.

Now it’s time to watch Game Of Thrones, I’m so excited for the tyrion/jon reunion. And also about jon and daenarys ofcourse!! I’m a got fanboy.
