[b]Bench Day[/b]
Bench Press
110kgx4
...
...
fu. I don't even know why I can't break past 4 reps on this. Maybe I should reset to 107.5kg? Any input would be appreciated
My warm ups (if they're of any use were)
barx5, 60kgx5, 70kgx3, 80kgx1, 90kgx1
Incline BB Bench
80kgx8
80kgx8
80kgx5
quite happy with these, but the last set killed me completely
HS Chest Press
80kgx7, x4, x3, - 10 breaths between sets
need to use a lighter weight for this RP stuffffs
Decline Cable Fly's
12.5kg each side x10, x5, x8, - 10 breaths between sets
Seated DB Side raises
10kgx12
10kgx12
Cambered bar cable press down
30kgx10, x5, x5, - 10 breaths between sets
Rope Press down
15kgx10, x5, x4, - 10 breaths between sets
Dumping the rope, going to do a CGBP RP set first then finish with the cambered press down instead
strong benching dude, really progressed on that ****. Anyway I reckon just keep at 110kg rather than resetting to 107.5
I wish I could be unhappy with 110x4 for bench lmfao; gjdm
[QUOTE=12ccopeland;1017329933]I wish I could be unhappy with 110x4 for bench lmfao; gjdm[/QUOTE]
You'd be happy with 110[b]lbs[/b] though at least ;)
Very strong benching regardless KnownOriginBrah!
Give it a bit more time before resetting, see if you can beat that just going as you are, but if you're going to reset you might want to take a different approach.
I don't think that'll be necessary though, just kill it next time ;)
Nice inclining too dude!
Thanks you guys, will get you on spread :]
& yeah I'll stick at 110kg and see if I can get these 5 reps on it grr

[QUOTE=Xuaxace;1019663383]our bench seems to be fairly similar right now.... what are you maxing as for now?[/QUOTE]
My max is 120kg. That was an all out attempt and I only just got it though. Wont be maxing again until I get 112.5kgx5 or something like that.
What about you? Do you know your max?

Not an amazing workout but it wasn't bad. Happy about the deadlifts though :-)
Thinking about starting low-bar squats instead of high bar... hmmmmmmmmmmmm
Didn't like low bar squats
Forgot to log legs yday, squats weren't great though: 140kgx4
Heres push workout from earlier. A lot of it was improvised and I wasn't focused at all. But I'll log the important bits
Bench Press
110kgx5 - yes. finally. been stuck at 4-4.5 reps for long enough
Incline BB Bench
80kgx8
90kgx7 lolwut
Then did some cable fly's, some side delt raises and some tricep cable work.
I don't like unfocused workouts but they happen from time to time. I got my bench improvement though which was the important part for me.
Deadlifting tomorrow, going to try 195kg for a triple.
Will make sure I'm focused for that lol
Deadlifted yesterday in chitty school gym of peace
212.5kgx1 [b]PR[/b]
that is all.
Legs tomorrow
strong PR in a different gym!
training in a different environment always causes me to do sh[b]i[/b]t..
good to see your strong ass bench is getting strong mayne :)
[b]Squat day[/b]
Squats
142.5kgx3
110kgx10
Leg extensions
80kgx10, x8, x6, 10 breaths between sets
Leg curls
65kgx10, x7.5, x5, I goofed on this. I'm only taking the last set to failure but I kinda failed second set. O well
Seated leg press
170kgx10, x7, x6, 10 breaths between sets
Thens some random calf work but ain't nobody got time to log dat.
I think squats only challenge me mentally lol. Reason I say this is because my triple today didn't feel any harder than 140kg. I think I lack confidence under the bar for some reason. I reckon I could rep 145kg-147.5kg for 3 if I had the mental attitude. Weird cause with deadlifts and bench now I'm confident as hell. Idk.
Hitting bench later today.
I can relate to the mental problem. I have always said that getting into the right frame of mind can make a make a set of 1-2reps into 5 reps. Today my mind wasn't there with the squats, my shoulder was bothering me and I could not get into my normal frame of mine and the bar just felt heavy, like a tonne of bricks, while normally I manhandle that ****.
Good job anyway, what route are you doing?

inb4 nose tork
[/QUOTE]
Nose tork definitely helps. I just get in the zone by psyching, and say some of my motivating words... like "common, tight", i get in the groove of things and the weight feels very light when done right. It is definitely hard to teach someone this as it is largely individual in what works best.
Massive benching btw, you might be ahead of me on that one, only got 112.5x5 2 weeks ago ;), gotta do 115 amrap tomorrow, see how it goes!
nice squatting too, you got the same as adam today :3
