I've been sick for two weeks now and been incapable of training hence the lack of workouts being logged. Also I've realised I can't really balance 4 days a week + this style of training atm since I'm so packed with uni since I have finals in a month plus will be busy with a lot of social commitments so I'm going to do Jason Ferruggia's MGS program for awhile which is just 3 upper and 3 lower days per fortnight. Also it's a lot simpler in terms of the rep and set range. At this point I'm pretty much just doing warm-up sets followed by 2 work sets of 5-8 for the most part. Today's workout:

1) Squat
Bar x8
60kg x5
80kg x3
95kg x2
107.5kg x5 x2, 180 sec rest.
High-bar and ATG.
2) Rack Deadlift (knee height)
60 x8
80kg x5
100kg x3
110kg x6
115kg x8, 120 sec rest.
Hook grip all sets. My grip slipped on 110kg so I decided to chalk up on the next set and increase the weight a bit. I could definitely do more if I chalked earlier. Will try 120kg 2x5-8 next time.
3a) Leg Press Calf Raise
60kg x10 x1
80kg x15 x2
60kg x20 x1, 60 sec rest.
Weight only includes the plates, no idea how much the machine weighs. I was supposed to seated calf raises but there was no machine at the gym I was training at so I used the leg press instead, only I realised it wasn't really a good choice since my knee isn't at a 90 degree angle like it is with seated. Held bottom position for a few seconds every rep and had slight knee flexion at the bottom.
3b) Behind the Back Barbell Wrist Curl
20kg x10 x1
30kg x10 x2, 60 sec rest.
Not sure if I did these right...
4) 1 Arm Kettlebell Farmers Walk
24kg x20m x2, 60 sec rest.
Notes: I forgot to the extreme stretches.Last edited by vongSTAA; 10-21-2012 at 06:28 AM.
