[QUOTE=Juggernaut0;988247593]You switched to 5 lb. jumps at 215? Really? I thought 10 lb. jumps normally would stop at or around 300. I understand everyone is different and switch to 5 lb. jumps at different weights, but I'm not sure.[/QUOTE]
Nah, I dropped to 5 lb jumps when they started to get pretty hard. I honestly can't imagine anyone doing 10 lb jumps even close to 300. A lot of people don't even make it to 300 without resetting. I think PG316 switched to 5 lbs jumps before the 2 plate marker as well.

DL's weren't too hard. Haven't done any deadlifting in quite some time. Tried to really focus on form. Squats weren't too bad either. I've noticed lately that ever since I got to rehab my glute and did a big reset, my squats feel more explosive and smooth. I think I'm really learning how to drive my hips better and getting good explosiveness outta the hole.
Still felt major DOMS in my abs from those decline situps last workout, but for the most part, body felt ok to go today. Next workout will be a good gauge for me, and see how I react again to squatting 3x a week.

I was just thinking this morning, why don't I ever see deadlifts in Juggz log haha. Nice session. When are you start TM for bench? Are you going to alternate with press?
-
Nice work on the back to back deads n squats. That can be taxing as hell

I was planning on it, but after thinking about it, I just decided to go LP all the way and not try to complicate things for now. I wanna go at least the remainder of this month with LP and see how things play out at the beginning of the new year. I'll get to TM soon enough. With the amazing work you've been doing, I know above all else you wanna see me having that same success. I'm motivated now more than ever. Sick of being weak.
Always appreciate your support man!

My abs have had major DOMS ever since Monday. lulz Didn't really affect my lifts too much though. Squats felt ok, but I feel like my hips are doing most of the work and I'm not utilizing everything else to it's fullest. Maybe it's all in my head, who knows. lol
Bench was ok. Last set was the strongest. Slightly harder than I felt it should've been overall, but I'll see how things play out.

Nice work fella! You'll get those numbers back to where they were in no time.
Did you decide on 5 or 10 pound jumps for squats?

I did 10 lb. jumps this week just to rehab. I'll get up to 255 next workout, then just do 5 lb. jumps from there on out.

[QUOTE=BabyOilBrah;990303963]Squats are oly?[/QUOTE]
Negative. lol Just gonna stick with the normal squats for now. I will mix in Oly Squats down the road, but I still have so much work to do just to get to a 4 plate squat, and I really don't wanna take away from any progress I'm hoping to make by the end of the month.

Nice session Juggz, looking forward to you getting that strength back and blasting past your old numbers.

Thanks man. My motivation right now is as high as ever, and I'm sick of not repping out 300 on squats. It's unacceptable. I've adopted an attitude of just shut up and squat. lol I'll be honest though and say I'm a little worried about bench. I've already stalled out at 250 twice, so I really hope to get past that weight. I kind of did getting 250 for 5 reps for 1 set, but that's not what I want.

Why so hung up on 3x5? What's your goal, why do you bench? Is your goal to have the strongest 1RM/5RM, or to have the strongest 3x5? If you're going for 1RM/5RM, then stop worrying about 3x5, stop spinning your wheels, fix your programming to get your 5RM up, and eventually, 250x3x5 will be easy for you. You know how long I was trying to hit 225x3x5, I just couldn't get it. Then I realized 3x5 was no longer the best way for me to progress and I switched up my programming to something that will work better in increasing my 1RM/5RM. Not that I'll even attempt it, but I have no doubt I'd hit 225x3x5 no problem now.

Nice squats chap, BTW im a sh.it squatter but by feeling it all in the hips, thats kinda a good thing isnt it>

Squats weren't too bad today. 1st set was the toughest, then the 2nd and 3rd set didn't feel that bad. After the last set though, my core and lower body were fried. lol Some slight forward lean on a few reps, but nothing too bad. Really made sure to sit back on the last set. The weight is feeling heavier each workout, but the bar speed hasn't really slowed down all that much. Slow, smooth reps and the hip drive seems to be really flowing well for me right now.
Was doing 10 lb. jumps for rehab, but now I will be doing 5 lb. jumps each workout from here on out. I'm on track to get back to 275 by next week (finally), but just gonna take it 1 workout at a time.

Nice squatting, keep adding the weight to the bar son.
Whats with dat OHP, 120 is play weight for you kid

Starting out light because I hadn't been doing OHP recently. Weight wasn't all that hard, but I'll get back to where I was before in no time.

Nice, im liking push presses a lot.
Up to 180x3x3 and next week 185x3x3. They are getting easier even adding weight each week. Nice feeling aye?
Keep up the glute stretching especially the medialis. I usually sit on a cricket ball for 10 mins before squats too these days

I like this mind set. Don't get hung up on the numbers, just get stronger! Your bench is strong as it is hitting 235 for 3 x 5 is a quality workout.
