Squats, pulls, and curls

Wednesday 30.04.08

week 9 day 2

A1 Clean
1x3 176
1x2 187
3x1 198
1x2 187

Lowered the weight, I can now do them pain free and they were all pretty easy. I'm just gonna work on ramping up until I can do triples with 90kg, which should be possible. My hip hurts more on cleans because when you catch the weight you have a pretty quick eccentric phase which takes a lot, it is not like a squat where I can control it down.

B1 Hang power snatch
1x3 132
1x3 143
3x1 154
2x2 143
2x3 132
2x2 132

These were cool, pretty easy. I switched from pwr snatch to hang pwr snatch and lowered the weight a bit

C1 Clean pull
1x3 275
1x3 286
3x2 297
4x2 286
1x2 275

Getting the hang of these now!

D1 Back squat
1x3 264
1x3 275
2x2 286 (was suppose to do 3 sets here, after this I also found I had to adjust things down a bit, I guess I started too high :D)
1x2 275
1x1 275
2x3 253

E1 Bench press
1x5 198
3x5 209
pushups: 1x13 BW done right after the last bench set.

E2 45 degree bent over supinated rows
1x10 176
1x12 176
1x06 197
1x12 176

E3 Standing ab pulldown
2x10 110
1x12 99

Perri workout: the usual
PWO: the usual

All in all a good workout. happy with the benching, I'll be doing 3x5 with 220 in no time. Even though I had to lower adjust the squats a bit down I can't say I'm disappointed.
 
Also I have started doing a psoas activation drill before front squatting and cleans, this really helps, so I guess my hip flexors might actually be a bit inactive (which is more common than people think)
 
Thought of the day:
Overtraining is just a myth that God started spreading to stop humans from getting stronger than him.

:D You've never questioned that you were overtraining? I have questioned it before myself, I think at some point during the workout it just gets counterproductive...

I really love your awesome high volume program btw man, looks great.

What are you doing for your diet plan right now? You still watching carbs in some way?
 
Watching carbs, yes. Workout days, carbs during, post and post post, sometimes post post post if I feel like it.
rest days, carbs for breakfast and usually one more meal later in the day.

I always questioned overtraining, all my programs people tell me I will overtrain and burn out, never did. I just though it was a cool way of saying it :D
 
I haven't logged for a while because I was at home taking one English written and one oral exam. I got an 6 on the oral exam :D I did 2 workouts there, but I didn't bother to log them.

Week 1 Day 3

A1 Clean and jerk
2x2 198

B1 Hang snatch
1x3 110
3x3 121

C1 Snatch pull

Exactly the same as last back squatting session a couple days ago, it was definitely easier now though.

D2 Rear delt fly
3x10 15.4

D2.5 L lat + ext rot
1x10 13.2
2x12 11

E1 GM
1x3 187
3x2 198
3x3 187

GMs are great, I really have to push my belly out in order to stabilize the spine to keep it straight when I'm far down, which is something I need to practice and I hope it will carry over to the same thing on the DL and squat
This was actually kinda easy and I can probably do more. (which I have in the past)

E2 45 degree bent over bb row sup grip
1x11 187
2x07 298

F1 Overhead squat iso hold (in the hole)
Xx 132
1x14 132
1x12 132

the numbers are not reps, they are counts, I counted to 14 the second set and 12 the last, the first one I didn't count.
This is kinda of an experiment, I've been incorporating overhead holds with a snatch grip, but figured since where I need the stability is in the hole on the snatch, why not hold it there :p
Anyone tried this before? is this something people do?

F2 Incline bench bi curls
1x12 22
1x10 22
1x12 22
