Tomorrow is the start of week 2 which is my 5's week. I'll also be starting Krav Maga classes tomorrow so I guess you could say i'll be implementing some cardio in my training.

I've been sick the for about 3 days and finally getting over this cold. Rather than pushing it in the gym I just rested which was the smart thing to do.
Here are my last two training sessions including this morning.

Haven't followed this for a bit but I like it! I am toying with the idea of running 531 again. I have the original book. Not sure if I should look at the new ones or not. Getting a little tired of just spinning my wheels if you get what I mean...

If you plan to run 531 I recommend picking up the 531 Forever book. It has a lot of his new training principles and tons of templates to mix and match.

Summary: This was an early morning training session. I woke up at 5:15 AM. I tend to not be at my "strongest" when it's that early and it showed on my plus set. I was only able to hit 1 rep on my plus set. I got done with the first rep and just had that feeling that another rep would of been too much of a grind.
I will say, I'm in a caloric deficit right now so I know that isn't helping much, but that's the primary goal right now. Secondary is just to maintain as much strength as I can. I decided to just drop my TM 10% so for cycle 10 my squat TM will be at 340 lbs.

Cool to see you’re still going strong after all this time.
Looking yoked as fuk too.

Off and on training, but fairly consistent since the summer.
Between baby, new business, a couple concussions, and FINALLY gettting my endocrine system in check, things slowly started turning around this year.
I think I didn’t start feeling “normal” until like April or May this year. So I’m slowly undoing 3-4 years of feeling like garbage.
I’ve got a log going in the over 35 section, I might put one in the regular section too.

Wow man sounds like a lot of stuff has been going on. Is this a new born you had recently? How did you end of with multiple concussions? What kind of business do you run?
I'll go check out your log and sub.

He will be 2 in February.
Basically I started a ew photography/videography business and then found out we’re having a baby lol.
So the past couple years have been nutty.
Some extremely long days between work and my son and attempting to workout where I could.
So I basically just would mess around 1-2 times a week.
But last year I had a concussion just before my son was born. Slipped in our complex shoveling know and whacked my head bad.
Then a few months later I got rear ended and had another concussion.
So 2017 was a bit hit and miss due to trying to recover from the concussions, but between a kid and so much work and minimal sleep, the recovery clearly took longer.
And it was exasperated with hormonal issues.
But this year has been better in all regards, so progress is on the menu.
-
Damn bro sorry you had such a rough go. I'm definitely glad to know things are looking better now and you're back to more consistent training.
-
Had to push my OHP day to tomorrow afternoon due to having to work a 12 hour shift today.
Nutrition has been on point for the most part. I'm working on dropping some lbs to maybe 180 and see where i'm at come that point. Chances are i'll then slow bulk back up.
-
Always (not) fun when work throws the training schedule off.
Do you have a goal weight in mind? Or just trying to cut and bulk while staying fairly lean overall?

I'll probably get down to 180 and then work back up. Goal is to stay lean with decent body composition.

For the most part. I wanted at least 5 strong reps with 140 but meh. Granted I'm also on a cut so i'm taking what I can get at this point.

Summary: My deadlifting felt strong as fook last night. I could of had 5 reps with 430 but my stupid grip gave out. The bars at this commercial gym are typical commercial gym bars, sh!tty knurling that's non existent.
I was using a mixed grip but sh!t still didn't help much. I need to get some chalk for next time but overall it was a great deadlifting session.
-
Figured I'd also post a pick for reference to show where I'm starting a little cut from.

Not surprising your pressing took a hit now that you’re cutting.
I’m sure it’ll bounce back as you get used to different leverages.
Strong deadlift day all around.
