Probably a little too much volume and the fact that sat has squat and bench, but I'm quite weak right now so i doubt my CNS will be as capable of overtraining.
Right now I just want to get a solid volume base on top of the 2 days s&c i'm already doing which are good for mobility and technique but less so strength.
Going to try this for a further 5 weeks or so and see where I am then and from there make a decision.

[u]S&C[/u]

[b][u][i]All weights will be in [color=red]KG[/color] unless stated otherwise.[/b][/u][/i]

Hang Cleans:
50 x 3
50 x 3
50 x 3
Tech is alright, coach said I need to push with legs more + get into full extension then do a little shrug with the arms and then let the bar travel (don't pull with UB) and get under it. Told me to incorporate high pulls on my Monday session.

Clean Deadlifts:
40 x 3
40 x 3
40 x 3

Front Squats:
70 x 4
70 x 4
70 x 4
70 x 4
These were pretty good bar speed on the way up. Starting to get stronger + hopefully will start to seriously load soon.

1 arm cable rows:
40 lbs x 8
40 lbs x 8
40 lbs x 8

[u]Supersetted with[/u]
1 arm lat pulldown:
40 lbs x 8
40 lbs x 8
40 lbs x 8
Machine is in 10 lb increments.. i don't know why *facepalm* If i went up to 50 it'd be an extra 25% on 1 arm load so would've been too heavy so I just focused on really good ROM without cheating form.

DB Split Stance OHP:
45 lbs x 4
45 lbs x 4
45 lbs x 4
Shoulders were still sore from tuesday, will get better as I get more acclimatised to the newly added bench load. Also Db's in lbs for some reason

[u]Supersetted with[/u]
NHE to floor:
3 x 6

5 kg Weighted Side Plank:
3 x 45 sec each side

[u]Supersetted with[/u]
Back extension holds w/TY's:
3 x 45 sec

Pretty tough workout; core at the end of the workout is always brutal. Front squats were pretty good and I'm getting a full understanding of cleans now.

Lost 0.6 kg of water weight in the workout :o

[b][size=+1]Saturday 10th January[/b][/size]

Squats:
60 x 5
80 x 4
100 x 5
100 x 5
100 x 5
100 x 5
100 x 5
110 x 1
120 x 1
The 5th rep of each work set was pretty hard but form is definitely improving + weight is alright considering I squat oly style (longer effort arm between bar + knee = A chain Dominant.. much less P chain involvement which is stronger + further ROM due to narrower stance = less weight can be lifted)
The single at 120 went so quick I was surprised.. felt like it'd crush me with the weight it felt like

Calf raises:
100 x 20
And that was that lmao

Bench:
Bar x 15
60 x 5
70 x 5
82.5 x 5

Incline Bench:
60 x 8
60 x 8
60 x 7.1 (Was really burnt out.. without spot probably would've got about 5)

Tricep Dips:
Bw x 5.8 (So close to 6.. triceps really fatiguing at this point)
Bw x 6 (Had a little longer rest, still probably would've only got 1 more)

I/Y/T's on incline:
2 x 10-15

Core:
Leg raises x 12
Knee raises x 8
Plank 30 s BW then 20 kg added - further 45s
Plank 90 s

This workout took [color=red][b]forever[/color][/b].

Video order: 100 x 5 (4th) little high imo, 120 x 1, 82.5 x 5 (5th)

Who was deload?

Hang Cleans:

Form is getting much better, 2/3 reps in the 3rd set were v good

Front Squat:
60 x 5
75 x 5

Thought I was going to go light today on these since it was meant to be a deload week but the coach had other plans (wants to co-ordinate weights deload with track deload).
75 went reallllly smoothly and on my top set I was good for 5/6 reps, even though it was a hard triple it wasn't max.
Technically it's the heaviest triple I've done so.. PB

105 x 5
105 x 5
105 x 5
90 x 3
Easy! Pretty much just as easy as the 100 5x5 I did 2 weeks ago and easier than the 105 3x3 I did last week. Lower back is a little sore since I was going a little too low and butt wink was happening.. Also knees were coming back a little bit so i need to make sure I keep them out and push my hips just a little further back on the descent.

Pretty sure this is a volume/tonnage PB for bench. Was pretty hard but I'll move to 92.5 next day and then I'll start progressing weekly rather than daily.

Incline Bench:
60 x 8
60 x 8
60 x 8
Didn't fail like last time, was pretty easy, could've got 3 x 10 if i wanted - I even did a 4 second pause on the 8th rep of the last set to appease the IPF overlords ;)

Think I'll change tomorrow's workout because there's no way I'm setting a bench pb right now. Think I'll do either paused or spoto press or some variant then more tricep + bicep work.

Supersets and low rest were because the reps were higher and the intensity was lower + because I just wanted to finish the workout, feel like a ghost

Going to take the tuesday session out of the program since I don't think I can recover quickly enough and my CNS was just getting hammered, going to change the saturday session too to target weaknesses in the main lifts.

How long you been lifting?

How long you been lifting?[/QUOTE]

das it mane. thanks brah!

On and off for like 2 years ish, had to stop july-oct 2013 and 2014 for track +had a back injury in 2013-14 so literally did 4 weeks of back squats all year by october 2014 so gains were lost there :'( Long as I'm making consistent progress whether it be mobility, strength, functionality or technique/movement patterns, I'm happy.
How long for you? Pretty sure I read in your log you've been going nearly a year?

Comparison at the end between Beltless 130 kg and belted 131.25 kg. Squat from today was deeper, had much less back involvement, was much more stable and was still around the same speed.
