IMPORTANT REMINDERS
- DO NOT squat without heels elevated, used to heels elevated, too much sitting back aggravates back injury
- DO NOT deadlift aggravates back injury
- DO NOT overstretch quads, aggravates ankle injury <-- happens every time, STOP IT

- utilize pin squats more, pin 6 work up then transition into pin 7


You quad or hip/hammy dominant - do you know?  Just curious, cuz I always try and work from a cause/effect relationship, and this kinda stood out when readin it.

Purpose: To log data in a format that is easier to analyze (for ourselves and readers of our journals), so that training setbacks are avoided & progression is of primary importance, thus making our training as efficient & effective as possible.

How-to: Copy, Paste & modify the template to suit your needs: Include this post at the end of each of your training journal posts by clicking "modify" on your previous post, copy and paste it into the current post, and then add the new data.



IMPORTANT REMINDERS
- DO NOT squat without heels elevated, used to heels elevated, too much sitting back aggravates back injury
- DO NOT deadlift aggravates back injury

i think it would be a good idea if we had a progress tracker subforum next to progress journals section. the progress tracker is a great idea but it messes up the readability of the journal. in the progress tracker subforum, you just post your tracker and keep updating it each workout. then you can still post your workout in the progress journal section and it will be easier to read workout by workout.

Adarq,

If I trained at the same gym as you and I had no clue who you were, I would think you are the biggest tool ever haha. You do these quarter squats with high socks on and tape yourself. I would be a huge dick and come over and rep 315 for 8 with deep depth while staring at you in the mirror while I do it saying GET SOME after each rep which in turn would make me a tool. :P

Also, last year I had mono and I would spit up phlegm like you do constantly, it would be really thick and green and seemed like it would never end..

cool idea but.......

NO.

this is the training dna formulating, it will evolve to be 100's of pages in one post.

true, then i'd grab the pullup bars without having to jump, or grab cereal out of the cupboard without climing onto the kitchen counter, or nearly touch an 8' rim standing instead of a 7' rim.

boss.

are you content at ~153 or are you still going for <150?

what happened to ending with your 20 rep sets too? You swore by those. do you just not do them at this phase in your cycle?

I do like how you improve on your routine over time and adapt. I used to be completely obsessive about following the exact same lifts every day for a while but I've broken away from that although I still feel like I can't go too long without doing an exercise or my performance/numbers will suffer on it even if i substitute other exercises. I think some variety though maybe taking a session from doing certain things is beneficial from what i can tell and not always use the same exact weight and reps.

bleh no green mucous yesterday, felt great, then i wake up today, feel kinda shitty, green mucous.

MAN WHAT THE FUCK.


4:31 - biceps curls bar on the floor. CAUGHT YOU!

ya i thought about moving it, it was someone elses weights, round backed bent over rows.. people don't put any of their weights away at this gym its pathetic.. i put every plate/weight back.




are you content at ~153 or are you still going for <150?

nah i want 140 :<

not doing those long walking+interval sprint sessions is really showing, my weight should be < 150 by now.. it's bugging me.

i can't do jump rope sessions either cause i don't want to aggravate my toe, which has been good recently.. so ya, im kind of sucking on the cardio right now, even tho the basketball work i have been doing is decent and explosive, it's not my normal 1.5-2 hours of work.

what happened to ending with your 20 rep sets too? You swore by those. do you just not do them at this phase in your cycle?

well im on high frequency right now so, i just havn't been doing them.. i havn't been doing them since i started getting sick 1 month ago, i just don't have the drive when i feel this shitty, takes alot out of me to force it when i feel shitty..

my current routine is high freq so 3 days in a row squatting, 2nd day is volume, i could easily throw a 20 rep finisher in there, it wouldn't cause too much of a problem but being sick, it just could be too much, so i'm keeping it at 10 reps.

I do like how you improve on your routine over time and adapt. I used to be completely obsessive about following the exact same lifts every day for a while but I've broken away from that although I still feel like I can't go too long without doing an exercise or my performance/numbers will suffer on it even if i substitute other exercises. I think some variety though maybe taking a session from doing certain things is beneficial from what i can tell and not always use the same exact weight and reps.

ya ive become good at it because, my athletic "Career" has been filled with SOOOOOOOOO many setbacks/roadblocks that i've learned to just keep the train moving somehow, working on what i can to improve while i get out of a rut.. im naturally injury prone (and illness prone for that matter) and extremely weak, so my body breaks down alot easier than 'normal'.. ive been dealing with injuries basically every day since i can remember.. always breaking, tearing, something etc.

yup, even though im on a high frequency routine, 3 days in a row of basically the same lifts/exercises, i vary up the set/rep schemes... and i throw in pin squats on day 3 for squat.

peace mang!

i loled @ the atg/quad nation section, hilarious.

Side note, I know you wont change it but I also wish you would do the updating part on your first page and just post your daily workouts on these other pages. Basically the same exact thing but I dont have to strain my index finger swiping down 12309436 times on my iphone which is where I usually check the journals from.
