Haven't officially started Sheiko 29 as of yet, but thought I'd give it a try today! Just waiting on coach to make a few adjustments to the program to suit myself a little better. Accommodating for weaker points and making it a little more of a bodybuilder friendly training program.

Today was pretty interesting actually.. I haven't done a full body workout in ~1.5 years until now. Sheiko definitely gives a lot of volume to benching, which is great because it's the lift I'm aiming to bring up before my next Powerlifting meet. I've never done Good mornings before either, starting light to work on form and learn the exercise (3x10@50kg felt like nothing).

Started the new training split today. Deads were done with just chalk, no straps. Gotta get that grip strength up!! Barbell glute bridges were pretty interesting, surprised myself with the strength on these.

Quick update..

Few days back I tweaked my lower back during a warm up set of squats. So no squats or deadlifts for me until it's all healed up (kill me, right?). I've already registered for the Powerlifting meet on Feb 16th so I really hope I'm up and going with squats & deadlifts long before then! But for now, I'll have to make do with some Bulgarian split squats for quads, and leg curls for hammys. Frustrating of course, but I've got to think long term and let my back heal up rather than do further damage. In about 12 hours from now I'll be going into hit quads & upper body. Despite this setback, I will still make progress.

Hope everyone else is well.
