Bodyweight@session : ~90kg
Soreness : hamstrings, VMOs and glutes, volume squatting got me back to doms city when i thought it was over.
Injuries/aches : none
3-sets-progress templateWorkout #4 ( Week #2 )HANG POWER CLEAN:
5@20kg
3@30kg
3@40kg
3@50kg
1@60kg
-Same with last time. Improved form/smoothness/speed but failed 2nd 60kg catch again.
HIGH BAR FULL SQUAT:
7@20kg
5@40kg
3@60kg
1@90kg
3@97,5kg ( +2,5kg )-Nice. Heaviest set for reps since injury. Better form than last week's 3x95 too.
Afrer re-reading that kellyb article about warming up, i did that unrack-and-hold-supramax-before-the-top-set thing. Feels like it works.
I did mess the warmup earlier though jumping from 60 to 90. Thought 80 to 97,5 was too much, but then 60 to 90 is too, should have done 85.
BENCH PRESS:
7@60kg
( +2 reps )6@60kg
( +1 rep ) 6@60kg
( +1 rep )Total = 19 reps
( +4 reps )-Good improvement but still too weak.
WIDE GRIP LAT PULLDOWN:
8@160lbs
( +10 lbs )8@160lbs
( +10 lbs )8@160lbs
( +10 lbs )Total = 24 reps.
-Great. Back responds so much better than chest. Always was like that though, deal with it.
PAUSED STANDING CALVE RAISES MACHINE:
20@55kg
17@55kg
( +2 reps ) 16@55kg
( +1 rep ) -I am starting to believe it is the TUT that burns me out and not the load. First 15 are easy, then ( about 1 minute in ) it becomes too hard.
Will up the weight although i didn't reach the planned 3x20 and see what happens.
ABS COASTER MACHINE:
20@BW+5kg
( +5 kg ) 20@BW+5kg
( +5 kg ) 20@BW+5kg
( +5 kg ) -Nice.
