    That ****ing sucks bro, ice and heat treat it and get an anti-inflam rub and you'll be good in no time.

    Ladder drills I do 3-step, 4-step, hopping, lateral ins and outs, cross-overs and hip twists and then a 5m burst at the end, if you're struggling for ideas on what to do with the ladder just go to youtube and search for ladder routines.

    Awesome man, you won't regret it. As far as lifts go I would put all your attention into compound lifts..deadlifts, power cleans, squats etc..but do some light work on your shoulder to add some mass and try and look up some exercises that help keep your shoulders injury free.

    From your height and weight listed, you might make for a good linebacker, so work on your first step quickness and lateral movement a lot, trying to keep low and square while you do exercises.

    Your coaches will get you on track when you show up and tell you what position they reckon you should play so the best thing you can do is lift heavy and try and get fast on your feet.

    decent squatting there... how is the core liking the 90kg???
    My legs will indeed. My core seems to be fine for heavier sets, it starts tiring during high rep ranges though, I think the flexibility work and doing bridges frequently is starting to help me though.

    18/2/13 Monday

    5 mins on the bike

    Foam rolling

    Hip/Shoulder mobility routine

    Front Squats;
    5x20
    5x45
    5x55
    5x67.5
    5x80
    5x90

    (Had to wait ages for someone to do his 3 sets of quarter squats... wish there were more than 3-4 real gyms in Perth, none are close to me and they all charge hefty prices.)

    Bulgarian split squats;
    8x25 each hand
    6x30 each hand
    5x35 each hand

    Starting to get to a point where I'm struggling more with holding the dumbell with my bad hand than with the exercise lol, still leaves me with a heart rate through the roof and needing to take big rests between sets.

    10 glute kickbacks each leg
    2.15 min bridge
    3x8 one legged hypers (each leg)
    1 min bridge with 20kg on back
    45s bridge with 20kg on back

    Foam rolling

    dam what are the good gyms there... if i do come i will need a gym for a month... seems friend when chatting to her on fb comes up as - subiaca or something like that...

    strong FS now... funny was logged out there and ended up looking at some of your first workouts and you really have improved...

    just use a BB for the split squats... i do prefer them with a DB but easier with a BB to set up...

    Ummm I'm not sure about Subiaco lol, I know theres a Fitness First there..which is more of a 5 star hotel than a gym.

    These are good gyms I've heard about but are too far from me

    http://www.ptcperth.com.au/

    http://www.musclepit.com.au/

    Thanks mate, I do feel like I'm coming along in my speed, jumping and core strength.

    Doing it with a BB could be a pain as there's only really a power rack, no open racks which I can walk in and out of. Theres no boxes or platforms I could fit into the power rack too...Oh well I guess I'm just developing grip strength too.

    20/2/13 Wednesday

    5 mins on the bike
    Foam rolling
    Hip/Shoulder Mobility

    Front Squats;
    5x20
    5x45
    5x55
    5x67.5
    5x67.5

    Some vague core and lower back exercises while waiting for a mate

    Bench Press;
    12x20
    12x40
    10x60
    5x80
    5x80

    Decided to give bench a go and I can actually do it, although I can't wrap my thumb around the bar on my right hand and the wrist is weak at the moment. I think I'll start benching twice a week now to get back into the swing of things.

    3xRope Pulldowns (Triceps)

    Probably going to get vicious DOMs tomorrow.

    Good to be doing upper body again, I think next week is time to start Bill Starr's with bench and rows, and see if I can deadlift and power clean.
    I think I'll stick with front squats instead of back squats, try and get them up to 140kg this year.

    Out of curiosity I calculated how many calories I probably eat in a given day, some days its less than this too. I am kind of thinking it's not enough? But I don't want to be putting on too much fat.


    Calories in a day

    1L full cream milk - 650
    3 chicken breasts - 680
    1/6th pack of lentils - 200
    1/2 cup brown rice - 330
    1 Medium sized sweet potato - 160
    1 cup of broccoli- 55
    2 eggs- 125
    1 spoon of peanut butter- 130
    1 1/2 cups of oats - 570
    1/4 tub of low fat greek yoghurt - 125
    1 banana- 105
    8 Almonds - 56

    Yeah I want to be lowering my bf% and gaining muscle. I don't generally count either but that's what I eat without really force feeding myself..any foods you reckon I should throw in there? or should I just drink more milk?

    I calculated on a program that takes your bf% and height etc into account and it said with the exercise I'm doing I should eat around 4k calories.

    I calculated on a program that takes your bf% and height etc into account and it said with the exercise I'm doing I should eat around 4k calories.
    its hard...

    in all honesty i just go by what i look like in the mirror... also if i am hitting my goals in the gym or running or the field...

    as an athlete the most important thing is how you perform over how you look etc... so as long thats all improving then thats what matters...

    very true advice man, I guess the best thing to do is up the calorie intake and see how goes.

    25/2/13 Monday

    Today was a good day, cast is off and I am lifting and eating big from now.

    5 mins bike
    Foam Rolling
    Hip/ Shoulder Mobility

    Front Squats;
    5x20
    5x47.5
    5x57.5
    5x70 (Some idiot bumped the bar as I was standing in the middle of the rack about to do my first rep...wrist is sore now - I'm holding the bar properly now)
    5x80
    5x92.5

    Bench;
    12x20
    5x42.5
    5x52.5
    5x62.5
    5x72.5
    5x82.5

    Rows;
    5x20
    5x40
    5x50
    5x60
    5x70
    5x80

    Bulgarian Split Squats (Dumbells each hand);
    5x27.5
    5x32.5
    5x32.5

    10 Glute kickbacks each leg
    Superset of;
    3x20kg weighted planks and One legged hypers

    Foam Rolling



    Makes for a long workout, but I loved being able to do upper body again, tried to do some power cleans after the squats but my wrist wasn't liking it.

    Will be interesting to see whether eating **** loads will allow me to train 6 days with only 1 rest. I might sacrifice Thursday as a sprint/conditioning day and just do very light cardio, but I'll see how I go first.

    I know man, it felt like a grind but it actually hasn't been too long.

    Dang and here I was questioning whether I should do light intensity cardio on days where I've got time, and you're doing 11 sessions in 5 days...

    Good stuff bro, jealous of those front squats. As for increasing your bench, there isn't a quick fix to increasing the weight but i've been doing wendlers 5/3/1 for bench and other compound lifts and its been great for me, back in November I was only about 90kg 1RM and now im up to 110kg 1RM. A question about your front squats, have you always had flexibility in your wrists for them? I cant bend my wrists back far enough to bring my elbows up and if i try to do it with crossed arms the bar either chokes me or slips off my delts if im lifting heavy so I dont really bother with them atm. Any tips?

    Hopefully my bench will go up a bit when I get my grip strength in my right hand back to normal. I'm already following the 5x5 progression which I assume would be similar gains to 5/3/1 but I'll check it out if/when I stall. Impressive gains on your bench though, no doubt.

    Front squats I have always had the wrist flexibility for yes. That's strange about it slipping off your delts but then again you look a lot leaner than me so there's less cushion lol. I would do as Scott suggested and try and use proper form on the light warmups then use your straps to wrap around the bar and act as handles.

    Didn't work out yesterday guys, and probably won't today as I got gastro/food poisoning..horrible stuff, probably ate about 400 calories and that was all from drinking flat lemonade...time to eat big today and get back into it tomorrow I think.
