    Thanks Snake - I have some nice low back soreness today that would say otherwise

    Today was an off day, nothing too exciting....work, chores, blah, blah, blah. Can't wait for Christmas though, absolutely love it!

    Tomorrow is the last day for Sheiko 29, then I will see how I feel on Sat or Sunday. Really want to use one day this weekend to retest my big three and see where I stand. I may take a couple extra days off between though.

    I was very happy to pull 3 reps even though I was pretty tired at that point. My PR is currently 500 lbs though so I have a little bit to go before catching that.

    Opting for a lunch time workout today since I would be too pressed for time after work since my wife has to work this evening and I'm on child duty

    Abs and low back are still a bit sore from Wednesday's session, but once I belt up I think I should be able to take care of the squats without too much struggle. Last day for Sheiko 29 baby!

    Thanks - I survived Had the idea of trying to test my bench press, and managed 225x3, but was really beat and tired so decided to give up on that thought after that initial heavy set. After 29 I'm doing 30. I really want a sheiko routine that is working with higher % of 1RM and 30 accomplishes that nicely. I was initially going to try and retest my maxes this weekend and jump into Sheiko 30 on Monday, but decided instead I will take the next week and just run a bodypart split 4 or 5 days and on the corresponding day, test my maxes for each lift. Like on chest day test bench, back (deadlift), legs (squat).

    The day after Christmas I have a lifting competition with my younger brother (family tradition), where we run a powerlifting style meet where we get 3 attempts on the big 3 and calculate our total based on percentage of bodyweight. I have yet to lose to him but he has gotten much stronger over the last year so should be interesting.

    I will likely pick up with Sheiko 30 once I recover from that contest

    So I have been slacking on the updates lately - just been busier and busier as the holidays draw near. I'm sure most can relate! Not my typical format but I will provide some updates none-the-less....

    Friday was my last Sheiko 29 workout. Went down without too much trouble. I pushed my bench press a bit after my heaviest set which was 205, thinking I'd try to test for a max. Well I put on 225 and got 3 reps, but it felt heavy and I was beat. Packed it up and called it a day. Weighed in at 194.2 lbs yesterday morning, which is +7.4 since the bulk officially started...

    I was definitely sore laying in bed last night and while I really wanted to hit the gym today and deadlift to test my max, I need more time. Instead I figured I'd give bench a whirl since I wasn't too sore from yesterday. Did several singles once I got to 235 lbs and managed to top out at 265x1 which I'm happy with (I used 225 as my max for sheiko 29). That leaves me with squat and deadlift to test yet. I most likely will take off tomorrow and then Monday do either legs or back and test another max. As I said before, will kick off Sheiko 30 after the holidays and do bodypart splits between now and then.

    Christmas cookies have slowly been making their way into my kitchen and I just know I will be putting on several pounds of buttery, sugary fat because of them. I am thinking once I can't get my weight belt on it's tightest notch anymore, the reality will sink in that I'm chunking out

    As I get ready for bed, I'm beginning to think it's going to be hard to stay out of the gym tomorrow. I think if my abominals are not overly sore then a leg day may be in order along with testing my squat 1RM. Now time for some healing sleep...

    After going back and forth in my mind all morning, decided to opt for a day off from the gym today. My spinal cord is crazy sore from all the squatting Sheiko had me doing over the past month. The last few squat sessions have been a little on the painful side. I like to squat with the bar high up on my shoulders and it typically rests across the bony part of my spine at the base of my neck. I could get fatter or use the puss pad, but I may experiment with squatting with the bar a bit lower on my back.

    Tomorrow will be an EPIC leg session though. Not only testing out 1RM on squats, but plan on beating my quads and hamstrings senseless!

    - Stan

    Workouts look good, glad you enjoyed 29...30 should be a blast! For your squats do hold the bar with medium grip or a far grip? I find when I reach my arms out on the bar the bar sits more lower on my back and sits nicely on my back muscles rather than above traps.
    On the Gain Train!

    Yeah, I always have a hard time staying out of the gym, but have been more successful with it the last several weeks. All of the squatting and deadlifting has really taken a toll on my lower abdominals as they always seem to be fatigued and sore. Having had a groin pull in the past from deadlifting I'm always cautious of training heavy when not feeling completely recovered. Seems the older I get the more cautious I become

    - Thanks Paul, it turned out to be a pretty decent session...

    Thanks for the tip, I will have to play around with it and see if I can find something a little more comfortable. It's really not an issue if I'm doing like 6 or 7 sets like I normally would, it's the 12 or 14 sets multiple times a week that have taken a toll

    Intra Sheiko Leg Workout

    Leg workout today with the primary focus of testing my squat to see where things stand. As such, squats were first up on the agenda. Was able to get up to 365, which honestly was more than I was expecting and right around my all time PR. Given I'm still under 200 lbs, this is very exciting and makes me believe a 405 squat is not only possible but closer than I thought!

    Barbell Squat - 45x12, 135x8, 185x3, 225x3, 275x3, 295x2, 315x1, 335x1, 355x1, 365x1, 225x7

    Stiff-Legged Deadlifts - 135x10, 225x8, 275x6, 295x5, 315x3

    Leg Press - 400x10, 490x10, 580x10, 630x10

    Leg Extensions - 130x12, 140x12, 150x12

    Seated Leg Curls - 130x12, 140x12, 140x10

    Seated Calf Raise - 135x15, 160x10, 160x12, 160x12

    That leaves me with the following inputs for Sheiko 30 compared to what I used for Sheiko 29:

    Bench Press - 245->265 (+20 lbs)
    Squat - 340->365 ) (+25 lbs)
    Deadlift - 455->??? (+?? lbs)

    Planning on deadlifting either Wed or Thursday this week as part of my back workout.

    You are a SOB Great work man. You pull 600 lb deadlift yet? Maybe I can make up some ground on you there. I don't foresee myself squatting 500 in the near future or maybe even ever
