Good **** man. Don't have any feedback, but enjoy'd the vid.

185lbs (BW + 5lbs) x 20 Reps on my 8th & Final set of Squats.
This is after a pyramid up to 315 x 2

Your avi makes me feel bad about myself

Managed to put up 100lb DBs for 8 reps on incline bench today. That's a PR for me.

315x1 (4th set) squat a couple days ago, failed on the second rep. But it showed me that 3 plates for depth is achievable, and I'm looking forward to giving it another shot Wednesday.

Decided to go back to my old PPL routine, so today was the start of that. Ended up hitting an all time 5RM PR on my bench @ 215lbs for 5 reps. All fasted

Wanted a triple on my 175lb OHP... but I'll take a single for now. Week 6 of this cut starting up!




Bench - 215 x 5

OHP (Warmup) 140 x 5

OHP - 175 x 1 (wanted a triple)

[DAaaMan64]

^^ Dat last 215 rep, such a grind. I thought you were gonna drop it at first stall.

I see some benchers pushhh their heels to the floor once the bar hits their chest. Try it out, it tightens you back up a bit, resets leg drive and at the very least it feels good.

Nice job!

Max attempts from yesterday. Fasted, as are all my workouts.



Got 265/145/330. Felt too good after that 265 squat and got cocky going for a 160/360 bench/deadlift. Ah well. Soon.jpg. All are bw PRs, w/ an all-time squat PR.

[ErikTheElectric]

^^ nice work Illini.

I already train with paused benching. Love it! Thanks man

Thanks brother.

Nice job!

I actually always try and push through my heels throughout the movement. Not just when the bar hits my chest, thanks for the 0.02$

[DAaaMan64]

Damn, how often are you guys testing your 1RMs?

Good job illin, always enjoy the videos.

Strong work as always.
Mirin your progression!

Damn, how often are you guys testing your 1RMs?

No set schedule really.
Whenever I feel like I've got it in me.

If I had to venture a guess, probably once/month or every 4-6 weeks.

[illiniStrive]

I haven't tested any 1RMs in over 2 months. I don't really see the point in going for a 1RM every single week, but other people train differently /shrug.

And thanks

Curious about everyone's thoughts on doing a "PLP" Routine...

I just enjoy starting off my week with a push day and like squatting on tuesdays.. was thinking about it, does anyone else do something similar?

are you asking if there's a difference b/w ppl and PLP? because if you're not than i am.

I know the difference already lol. I'm just asking if anyone does PLP instead of ppl

[Domicron]

then may i ask what the difference is? i wasn't joking, i'm stupid and don't know why it would matter the order in which you do theses workouts if you're doing each one of them twice a week.

[InItForFitness]

Assuming you're going P/L/P/R and repeating the 4 day split I think it'd make a bit more sense than P/P/L simply for the extra day of rest between upper body muscle groups.
Could allow for better training performance on your 2nd upper day of the split.

Which, of course, better training performance = better results.

i understand now, and retract my question.

[unstrong]

I see a lot of people recommend L-P-P so that you can give deads and squats their own day, not back to back. Though if you're doing 6 days/week, that problem is inevitable.

Could also simply follow the P/L/P/R outline and alternate between Squats + Deads on Leg day for your main movement.

Which still would be reasonable for someone who isn't looking to powerlift considering with that outline you'd be training each movement once every 8 days, so almost once/week.

[illiniStrive]

it'd be easier to offer input if you had an actual set up we could look over versus an acronym. there's plenty of ways to set up "PLP" that could be great and plenty of ways to set up the same that would be asinine. need more info.

except, IIRC Erik is planning on a meet in early November? so in that case training his squat only 1/8 days would not be optimal lol

[CycoCyclone]

Had a good squat session today. Did 3 sets of 5 at 315 lbs. Felt good about depth. Normally after doing this much my knees would be killin but those knee sleeves!! Followed the heavy weight with a few sets of lighter weight higher rep stuff. Legs are spent. Going to go play bball in a couple hours. We will see how that goes haaha

Ahh, have to be more consistent in my posting with this thread so I'm aware what's going on.



Yeah my outline would be a bit of an issue then, although I don't see why someone would go P/L/P or P/P/L or any variation if training for a PL meet.

Was pressed for time. It would look something close to/similar as this..

Mon - Push (Heavy)
Tues - Legs (Heavy)
Wed - Pull (Heavy)
Thurs - Rest
Fri - Push (Light)
Sat - Legs (Light)
Sunday - Pull (Light)

Apologies if this sounds stupid, I'm not the best at creating my own training routines, or following them (admittedly).

Any reason why? I'm planning on doing my PLP Routine up until 6 weeks out, which is when I'd start Canditos 6 week program to prep.

Not to speak for IIFF, but since his suggestion would have you alternating squat/deadlift on leg day (and presumably doing neither any other day) you'd only be squatting less than or just about 1x/week. Which could work out for physique purposes but not the best idea for an intermediate going into their first meet?

W/ the setup above, I'm not sure what "light" means (higher volume?).

Correct. It would be essentially a hypertrophy day.

My gut says, eh - contingent and subject to change upon further information (movements, rep/set scheme, planned progression).
