Exact opposite today everything was slow!

5x160
5x180
5x195
4x5x205 - hardest squats of my life!

Did some bench and some machine pulls but I was very drained.

reiyushin · 27 Jul 2014 at 19:51

Minor planning brain fart

I finish smolov on the 16th exactly 2 weeks before my comp date (deadlift and bench only)

So for the first week do I deadlift non stop to get used to it again or do I just do 1 or two sessions one fast one heavy then have my week off pre comp.

Bench I'm also considering benching until 3 or so days before the comp to get my technique down.

An interesting month ahead

reiyushin · 28 Jul 2014 at 11:03

Severely under recovered, 2 nights of poor sleep and asthma attacks. Tonight will be adjusted appropriately.

Experience has taught me 2 things, how I feel is a lie and I should listen to how I feel....

reiyushin · 31 Jul 2014 at 10:32

Monday was a mess but got some nice benching done at least.

Yesterday was good for both bench and squat

Squat
3x100
3x140
3x180
3x220
3x220

Very fast

Bench ended up pause reps 3x5x110 all felt good

Some assistance work then food.

Back on track

reiyushin · 2 Aug 2014 at 20:55

Cheers

It was a good/bad day for the diet (I ate everything in sight)

reiyushin · 4 Aug 2014 at 10:33

Despite consuming my body weight in food the scales were forgiving this morningand I continue to trend downwards.

Looking forward to tonight's squats

bench I'm not so sure of, I think my shoulder is angry with me. I'll see how he feels later.
