Black Rhino Revival- Powerlifting/Strongman Log

[colonel_swizzle]

Hey my name is Kemal. I am 29 y/o. 6'4'' 258lbs. I am starting this training log to see how am progressing in my up and down training. Planning on doing a PL comp on Oct. 27th this year. Not looking for a great total but really pushing my body more. I don't know when my next strongman comp but will post when I know. My maxes as of now Squat 500 Bench 330 Dead 515 OHP 275. I have done higher on dead but not in awhile.

I am in the middle of my programs starting my logs. Next training Monday.

1 x 295
1 x 315 felt easy

I can do a HW contest with no zeros just keep the weights light and nothing overhead.

[colonel_swizzle]

Nice benching! Strong-as-fuark OHP. Subbed.

Thanks. The OHP is very weak. That was a push press on an axle.

[thom2355]

I'll drink to that.

Totally agree..now only if a promoter would see it our way!!!

[colonel_swizzle]

I wish they would too.

[colonel_swizzle]

This was not a good training session at all. My squats have been lagging behind lately. Frustrating because they were going so well.

Squat
Working sets
10 x 315 heavy
8 x 350 heavier
6 x 375 good
4 x 405 thought I was gonna die.

Acc.
3 x 8 Lying leg curls
3 x 8 Leg extensions
3 x 12 seated calf raises
3 x 15 ab machine crunch

Too tired to do my regular leg day. Hope next squat day will be better.

[ktj4l]

Strong squatting. Makes me wonder what a good squat day looks like for you, haha.

[mmorton]

One of them days man. Love that I'm the only one of the ironboy crew that didn't get any love for subbing. I'll remember that ****.

I would like to have one of those days too. lol

[colonel_swizzle]

I was trying to write a formal hello to you, but screw it. How the F**K are you?

That's more like it sweezy!! I'm ****in great

[netopia]

Subbed, can't wait to see a good squat day either.

[NC_Tarheel]

I'd take 405 x 4

You did a lot of reps prior to your heavier sets so good job...maybe???
