The reason I'm making this journal along with my log in the contest prep section is because although I am mainly a bodybuilder, I plan on competing in my 1st powerlifting meet this offseason...in the past I never took strength training seriously until 4 months ago when I began this offseason...I hope to learn as much as I can from fellow powerlifters in this section and would like as much input as possible!
4 months ago lifts:
Squat: 225 x 8
Bench: 95 x 12
Deadlift: 185 x 12
Current lifts:
Squat: 405 x 1
Bench: 225 x 1
Deadlift: 405 x 1
*These were done on a normal power day during my modified PHAT routine. Hit squats and deads in the same workout
...my training gameplan and what I have found TREMENDOUS results in this offseason is cycling between a power and hypertrophy based program (PHAT) and a more of a strength and hypertrophy based program (sheiko, etc.)...
...I run my cycles in around 4-6 weeks periods...my body has responded perfectly and I plan on continuing this...
So far this offseason has consisted of:
5 weeks of PHAT
4 weeks of Sheiko #29 (numbers were 315 squat / 205 bench / 340 deadlift)
4 weeks of PHAT - Back focused (just finished up 4th week)
...and next I plan on running Sheiko #37
...As i just finished up my 2nd cycle of PHAT, I will be taking a few rest days before starting sheiko #37...still need to set my numbers for this program as the 405 squat was hard, the 225 bench wasnt too bad, and the 405 deadlift wasnt too bad especially considering it was done about 6 exercises into my workout....
OK...enough talking...here's my picture at 190ish lbs as of yesterday...
...I train with intensity as the number #1 goal...I ALWAYS PUSH MY LIMITS AND SET PRS...every workout...everyday...in and out of the gym...prepare to follow some insane workouts...

So I need some advice from you guys as to setting my 1RMs for sheiko 37 which I plan on starting tomorrow! My current numbers are set to 405 squat, 235 bench, and 430 deadlift. I hit 405 on squats and it was really hard. Then 4 exercises later I hit 405 on deads and wasnt too bad. Then on my upper power day I hit 225 and it was fairly decent. My question is should I keep my numbers set to 405 squat, 235 bench, 430 deadlift, or should I bump my numbers up? I would really appreciate everyone's opinion as I want this sheiko cycle to be HARD! Thanks in advance!

of course you know i'm subbed!
i think those are pretty good numbers, like Bob said in your prep thread 37 is a LOT of volume... even if you felt like bumping the numbers IMO the only lift i would bump would be the deads, based on how you describe the RPE of each. i thought the numbers for 29 were ridiculously light but TBH there hasn't been a day where i haven't had some difficulty hitting one set. i can only imagine how 37 is gonna be!"The weak-minded would shrink away from what must be done for fear of being ridiculed by the wicked" - Terry Goodkind

Subb'd! nice work, shieko + extra hypertrophy work? ****in' awesome. Wish I could hit that kind of volume right now!! I don't like to confess it but I secretly like training like a bodybuilder, sometimes more so than heavy weight, you probably know what I mean. ****ing brutal high rep sets with a pump going is so hard - I get adrenaline goin on a 1 rep max lift but you can't for a stupid 20 rep set or something. Pure mental pain - its not if you can lift the weight, its jsut how bad you wanna finish the set. I like seeing the crossover PL/BBing training and whatnot.

UPDATE:
Time has been CRAZY constricted and I apologize for not stopping in some of your logs like I usual do. Finals, research papers, presentations, work, and life commitments have kept me very busy and once I get a free moment I will stop by everyone's logs! I was lucky enough to record today's session and will hopefully have that video up later on today (also got some posing in with my boy at the gym...6'3" 250ish I believe!)
Beyond that today is the last day I can call myself 19 as tomorrow is my 20th birthday!!! My family makes birthdays so incredibly special and I am really looking forward to spending some quality time with them!
...until later...TRAIN HARD!!!!advertising not permitted

Do you have ambitions to compete in powerlifting, or is this more of a fun break from traditional bodybuilding for you?
If you do plan to compete I think you should film your squats from the side next time, its hard to tell from the front but I would guess that is a little high771/645/622 Single Ply

11-19-2012, 10:11 AM #22
Thanks for your input! Yup, I plan on competing! I filmed a few from the side before but when editing the videos together it didnt look as good as the other shots.
I will start throwing some in! Gotta stop wearing long pants when squatting too...harder for me to tell depth...
Thanks again man! Will have some videos up soon of some side squat shots!advertising not permitted
