    Texas Method Volume Day

    Barbell Squat:
    45 lb x 5 reps (+36 pts)
    135 lb x 5 reps (+66 pts)
    205 lb x 3 reps (+85 pts)
    275 lb x 2 reps (+114 pts)
    340 lb x 5 reps (+262 pts)
    340 lb x 5 reps (+262 pts) vid
    340 lb x 5 reps (+262 pts)
    340 lb x 5 reps (+262 pts) vid
    340 lb x 5 reps (+262 pts)

    This. Fukcing. Sucked. I thought about keeping the weight at 335, said screw it and went to 340. I'm feeling wrecked right about now. I experimented with the Spud belt for the 3rd and 4th sets, it's a lot more comfortable than my 2 prong belt, but I don't think it's quite as effective. Too lazy to edit the videos right now, I'll get them up tomorrow.

    To put this in perspective... Just 12 weeks ago, you did 340x5, and in that particular workout, you said you barely got the reps. 12 weeks later, it's your volume weight... Amazing. I can only hope I have the same amount of amazing success like you have man. Great job.

    Disappoint at no bench though.

    Thanks bro. I usually wait 5-6 minutes from the time I finish a set until the time I start getting ready for the next set (belt, camera, etc.). Probably ends up being closer to 7-8 minutes from the end of one set to the start of another.

    Thanks juggz. Yeah, progress these past few months has been awesome. Stick with it and you'll make some great gains as well.

    Not that bench was planned, but even if it was, I would've skipped it lol. I didn't even want to leave the gym, I just wanted to curl up in a ball and take a nap right there in the squat rack. Macenko 8A will commence tomorrow night.

    You might be wrecked by the squat, but that is an awesome day of squatting right there. Nice job.

    Yes, ID will be on Saturday. I'll do some kind of low volume moderate intensity squats probably Tuesday to set me up for the max attempt next Friday.

    Thanks guys.

    Question for my fellow TK knee sleeve users. I just noticed one of my knee sleeves has a rip in it. It's right in the middle of the sleeve, on the side of my knee. It's tough to tell in the picture, but the rip is all the way through the neoprene, it's just the cloth material that prevents me from being able to put my finger through it. Anyone have this happen to theirs? If I'm more careful in putting them on, can I still get a bit more mileage out of them? I've had them for almost a year, and I don't know if I've squatted without them even once since I got them. I'm hoping I can get at least another month out of them, as my cash flow situation is a bit tight at the moment.

    I'll repeat what I said in my log. My pair has started to rip a little bit on the inside along the stitching. I can get to the cloth too just like yours. They still seem fine despite the rips and I've squatted with them a number of times since I noticed.

    I would be careful taking them on and off as you said. Also, don't turn the top half down to cool your knees (if you're doing that). I believe that's what caused my rips.

    185 lb x 3 reps (+74 pts)

    Barbell Bench Press:
    45 lb x 10 reps (+42 pts)
    95 lb x 5 reps (+50 pts)
    135 lb x 3 reps (+53 pts)
    165 lb x 8 reps (**** pts)
    202.5 lb x 6 reps (+110 pts)
    230 lb x 4 reps (+114 pts)
    242.5 lb x 3 reps (+109 pts)
    247.5 lb x 2 reps (+95 pts)
    257.5 lb x 3 reps (+121 pts)
    230 lb x 7 reps (+138 pts)
    A bit disappointing. Based on 7B, I thought for sure I had at least 4 reps, and pretty much planned on either getting 5 reps, or roll-of-shaming out of it. I tried something new, putting my feet up on the bench ala Woody to get my traps planted better. I know, it wasn’t very smart, just about the worst time to try new things. It did feel like it was working though. 242.5 (feet on bench) didn’t feel any heavier than 230 (old approach, feet on floor). However, when I got to 257.5, my back started to cramp up a bit. I might’ve been able to grind out 4 reps, but I decided not to.


    Close-Grip Barbell Bench Press:
    185 lb x 5 reps (+92 pts)
    135 lb x 8 reps (+75 pts)
    135 lb x 5 reps (+66 pts)
    135 lb x 5 reps (+66 pts)
    Decided to bang out a few sets of these real quick. Only took like 30 seconds rest between each set.

    After looking into the issue a bit yesterday, I'm not sure I've been taking the right approach to putting them on. I would put them on right side out, fold the top half down, pull them up, then fold the top half back up. It's a pain in the ass, especially if I have any sweat going. My elbow sleeves, I couldn't even get them on that way, so I've always worn them inside out, since the cloth side slides up your arm with much less friction than the rubber side. When I was looking into it yesterday, I saw some people describe a different approach. You turn the sleeve inside out and put them on backwards (small opening first), get the small end to where it should be, then pull the large end up and over (see video below). I tried this out with my elbow sleeves, I was actually able to get them out with the rubber side in, the way they're supposed to be. I'll give this a shot with the knee sleeves tomorrow. Anyone else use this method?

    Thanks man. Unless you get to be one of the strongest squatters in the world, there's always going to be someone using your ID as VD, your VD as RD, or even your ID and RD. Just use it as motivation, and work your ass off. If you look at all your subs that squat more than you, go back in their training history, and at some point, they were where you are now. Stick with it, be consistent, and soon you'll have someone saying the same things to you.

    Final thoughts on Macenko

    So I have had a change of heart about next week. I was going to use next week to test my new max after Macenko, but I decided it's just not worth it. I wasn't sure what I was going to attempt. I was originally planning on hitting 290 then going for 300. If I hadn't got sick, I'm fairly confident I would've got it too. While it would be nice to be able to claim I actually hit 290 or even 300, it's pretty meaningless. The goal right now is 315, so any max attempt prior to that just means I lost a week of potential progression. For now, I'm going to just jump right back into TM.

    I did make some decent progress on Macenko. Before Macenko, my best was 235x5, which puts me at an estimated max of 274. My best set on Macenko was 230x8, which puts me at an estimated max of 291. If I hadn't got sick, I'm confident I would've hit 257.5x5 in 8A, which would've had me at an estimated max of 300. It was a fun program and it was a blast being a part of the Macenko gang bang thread, but I'm excited to take my progress and switch back to TM.
