Yeah, NY winters blow

I've decided to switch gears and do a 14 week cycle of Bodybuilding(with strength).  I figured my random injuries my body is telling me to ease up on shit.  So my bodybuilding with a lil focus on strength means for example 4x10 but each set is a hard 10

Odd Weeks are going to be Pre-exhaustion weeks
Even Weeks are going to be normal BB

Today for Chest

Lying DB press(after a push up and tricep machine warm up)
80x20
100x15
100x11
100x8
100x5

DB flys
25x15
30x15
35x10
40x10
45x10

push ups
4x10

Machine press
150x4xas many as i can

Incline Bench Press(by now im exhausted)
bar-95 warm ups( 20 reps each)

Well I did skwaats in the morning and figured since im weaker in the morning it would stop me from going too heavy.

Notes: After Skwaats I did leg curls and my right hammy(side i pulled my calf on) felt substantially weaker than my left.
           No heavy lifting last week so the bar felt heavier on my back than normal
           My mobility was shit and i was tilted to one side even though i stretched and foam rolled
           On 465, my last set i felt my quad bunch up so now thats pulled a bit too, not too bad got some bengay on it.

135-275 warm ups
315x2
365x2
405x2
425x2(belt only)
455x1(belt ony)
455x2(belt+knee sleeves for the rest)
460x2
465x1(felt the twinge in my quad on the bottom) immediately went to the pool room and foam rolled and found whatever pointy edges i could and just had it sitting on the knot til it felt better, kept doing that between sets on everything else

hammy curls(single leg): worked up t 75x10 for each leg

db stiff legged deadlifts(light) worked up to 70sx3x10

Pulldowns with a var bar handle thing for 4 sets of 10
 
ab work


What I am going to do to improve everything

Mornings: Dedicated to stretching and foam rolling with bike work

afternoon: foam rolling everything

night: main workout, stretching, mainly dynamic stretching

Idk why this happened again I felt good but i guess its just by body telling me im not 18 anymore even though im only 26 but its acting like im 46 lol

just an update: my calf is feeling better and I can flex it and stretch it without and doing little spasms. I may do my squat workout in the morning if I feel good enough, if not then I will squat at night. If I work out in the morning then I will try to tape my squats and also whatever else I feel is necessary.  I haven't done completely raw squats in a while so im thinking something like this

365x5
385x5
405x3-5
415x2-5
425x2-5

And just go from there and add more volume back in

Nothing today, was dealing with fedex all morning trying to figure out where my trap bar was, so after i went shopping for my food and dickin around with them for an hour, i decided to go searching again.  And thanks to my no fucks given for trespassing, i found it in my neighbors extension they put on their house in the back where i couldnt see it the first time.  The driver listed it as put it on the porch and its not even close to being a porch.  So I said fuck it, i cooked my food tonight for the weekend.  thinking of waking up early to get my chicken on the george foreman grill and hit the gym up before work.

This coming week will go back to normal, my leg should be good by sunday hopefully.  I also havent checked out my book yet cuz ik i wont really look at it so tomorrow at work i will look at it and put together a stretching routine.

The Plan

Monday: Wheels/bis/Yokes/back
Back Skwaats: reps at 450, depending on my first set I want 20 reps total so might do 10x2 or 5x5, maybe 10x2 would be the easiest.
Hammy curls
DB Stiff Legged deads
Lat pulldown
Curls
Trap work

Have a bit more mobility today.  This coming week im going to rest it and do a full body workout each day.   1 exercise for each muscle and the main lifts will be normal set rep schemes while secondary will be 5-6 sets of 12.  Im going to treat it like a deload wk and if my leg will allow it i might do box skwaats or just 600lbs unracks n hold for about the time it takes me to unrack, walk out, skwaat n rerack.  For rehab i will do some biking and light trap bar walks.

So i did shoulders today, whoopdie fucking do

a guy in the weight room as a joke put a posing mirror sign above the main mirror in the weight room so I went for a double bicep pose with my leg out behind me, all of a sudden It felt like someone punched my calf so i looked behind me seeing if anyone did and no1 was there and now i cant really walk on it, full extension and i buckle.  I dont think i tore it just a bad strain but its still a pain in the fucking ass, and tomorrow is my fucking birthday!!! i cant fucking win

 :ibsquatting:
135-365 warm ups(275-365 singles for warm ups)
405x1 no belt or knee sleeves
455x1 belt
505x1(pr) belt+Knee sleeves
525x1(pr) Belt+Knee sleeves
315x10
225x10
135x10
- my knee sleeves I ordered from Elitefts, everyone had me paranoid about the size because the reviews were saying they run small so i ordered a 3xl and it gives me good support but for what they are  I should be getting a lot more so next time I get some ill get a 2xl.
-Skwaats felt good, a bit heavier on my back that last week and the week before and probably had 20 more lbs in me.
-Next time I do a max effort I'll go to the Y in auburn since they have a monolift so i wont have to walk it out.

-Workouts for the following months will be somewhat the same
mon- ME Skwaats
Wk.1 5x5
wk.2 5x3
wk.3 5x2
Rotate back to 5x5 for 4 cycles

Back days do speed work for skwaats and fridays are usually for Repetition work.

the rest of the workout was just hammy work, Speed pulls, 5x2, hammy curls, 5 sets of max reps with the full stack.
hammy ISO bridge hold- 3 sets of 20 seconds each leg.  I must use a lot of hammy and ass for everything because these were rough, my hammies activated immediately while my buddy who skwaats narrow said he couldnt feel his hammys activate.

tomorrow morning do some ab work and bis
