Palm ups pulldowns - 1x3@140/160/180/200
Chinups - 1x2.75*@22lb handing from my belt
Hammer curls - 1x3@50, 3x5@40, 1x3@50

* Hit failure halfway through the concentric phase of the third rep

Pasted on the deads. I did do a few reps with 132lb just see how it felt, felt good i think my back will be back to normal in 10days or less.
 
Front squat - 1x3@135/157/176/198 (first time in months i done these)
Push Press - 1x3@110/132/143/160, 1x1@176*

* Probably could've got another rep maybe 2 but between my sore back and shoulders, i'm pretty pleased with that weight.
 
April 3rd

phew!!

I had the blocks setup for some powercleans from blocks but i was using way to much shoulder/arm pull so i passed on them. However, i hurt my shoulder while experimenting. I was pretty pisssed but i found another deadly excercise afterwards, it will be a mainstay in most of my programs for a good while to come.

On to the workout:

A1: Front squat - 4x6@154
A2: Reverse crunch (steep decline) - 4x10

B1: Alternating shoulder press - 1x6@50(each arm), 1x4@50 shoulder hurt stopped.
B2: One arm dumbell row - 1x6@40, 2x6@56

C1: Bulgarian Split Squat - 1x6@70(each leg)
C2: Bulgarian Deadlift - 1x6@132(each leg)

I was so winded from the C pairinsg i decided to just do straight sets on one of my new favorites the Bulgarian Deadlift!!

D: Bulgarian Deadlift - 3x6@132(each leg)

E: DB External rotations - 2x10@10(each arm)
 
Another Phew! I think i should start doing some high rep stuff not is it only an amazing workout, it will give my body sometime to heal. I think i'm your classic too much too fast trainee.

Well i had to omit all the pushing excerises for the most part, besides cleaning, if you could call it that, the bar up for stepups and some pressdowns.

A1: RDL - 3x12@198
A2: Situp(slant board) - 1x15@25 (plate), 1x12@44, 1x10@44 with plate on top of my head, now that's hard!

B: Stepups (about 24-30inches) - 1x15@85(each leg), 1x12@95(each leg), 1x12@115(each leg)

C: DB external rotations - 2x10@10

D1: BB curls - 1x12@70, 2x12@75
D2: Triceps pressdowns - 3x12@110

I think i might have to go to a split soon so i don't have to press every workout.
 
Day 5 -

I done the first set but after that i had to split it in half IE my sets were 60seconds and my RI was 45sec.

Excuse? I hit the bottle again lastnight I done the workout fasted besides sipping on my recovery drink.

All in all it was still a heart pounding workout, i believe your heart rate is elevated after a hard night of drinking at any rate...

Loads:

Deadlift - 110
Bodyweight pushups which are more then my %25 1RM
Squat - 75
Pulldowns - 80

DAY 5
Circuits: 3
Set Duration: 2 minutes
Load: ~25% of 1RM
Note: Each set uses a load that's approximately 25% of your 1RM. But if you're not being challenged (ie, drastically increased heart rate) by the end of the set, increase the load for the next set by 5%. Each set should be performed with as many reps as you can muster in the 2 minute period.

A1 BB Deadlift
Rest 90s
A2 Push-ups
Rest 90s
A3 Back Squat
Rest 90s
A4 Lat Pulldowns
Rest 180s

Repeat sequence twice more.
 
Yeah i almost passed out :)

Its Waterbury's summer project program. The next phase i assume will have more heavy lifting sessions. Only 2 weeks to the first phase.
 
Well i went ahead and designed myself a split routine more out of necessity due to the fact that i can't keep on pushing/pressing every fullbody workout if i expect a nagging injury to heal, my right shoulder.

Back squat - 3x3@264

April 11th -

Chinups - 5x3@bodyweight
BB rows - 5x6@142

Single leg deadlift - 1x4@132, 5x4@154
Leg extensions - 1x12@100, 2x12@110
Goodmornings - 3x8@110

I was planning to do goodmornings after the deads but my lower back was fried so i decided to rest it before i went to the good mornings. Single leg deadlifts are killier on the lower back.
 
Can we go without the Hot Rox? Ive heard some bad things about its side effects and was wondering how much removing it would effect this diet.

Where you read that?
