Week 12 is all about working my way up to what I will be opening with at the meet June 4th. Today I just did some triples, doubles, and singles working my way up to 320 lbs.
Bench Press – barx3, 135×3, 225×2, 275×1, 320×1
Tricep Pushdown – 50x3x10
Training Partner: Nick Bennigsdorf
Squat – 380x3x3
Squat – 435x1x2
Pause Squat (Below Parallel) – 135x3x10
Training Partner: Nick Bennigsdorf
“…last Strength Block workout until Mid-January. I feel like I have hit a plateau in my training and I am going to switch it up. I have roughly planned out the next 24 weeks of training with an APF meet in Omaha at the finish. Starting on Monday 11/16/15 I will start Hypertrophy Block training. This will last for about 10 weeks. I will then go back to a Strength Block for roughly 8 weeks. Lastly, I will finish up this cycle with a 4-5 week Peaking Block. This will be the first time I have tried all of the Phases of training in a Macrocycle. After my poor performance at the NASA meet I want to come back better than ever, I was going to do a meet in Chamberlain, SD in February, but I am going to skip it to focus on getting stronger. I will try to update the blog more often. I am going to set up a schedule for posting dietary and training journal material as well as some product reviews that I haven’t had the chance to do yet. Stay tuned for a lot of material to be coming your way.”
