LiE's Diet and Training Thread

Game on :)

Deadlifts
90x6, 90x6, 140x4, 160x3, 180x3, 210x2, 225x1 (230 is my PB)

Seated Cable Rows
65x10, 72.5x10, 80x10

Wide Grip Pull Ups
8, 7, 7

TRX Inverted Rows
8,8,8

DB Reverse Flyes
7x10 x3

Lying Leg Raises
10, 10, 8

Land Mines
15x10, 20x10, 20x10

Pallof press
10x10 x3

The 225 wasn't too bad considering 230 is my PB. Lost upper back tightness which I wasn't pleased with and I'm going to make sure I nail it every time in future.

My core is destroyed.

As you can see, not my finest lift. I know I can do better :(

I think you have a problem. Form is important, don't get me wrong. There's always a balance between trying to get perfect form and just getting on with it. IMO, I think you tip the balance a little too much towards trying to get perfect balance. It's almost as if, and I'm probably talking out my arse, you're offended at how your deadlift looked.

No, back wasn't perfect, but it was acceptable. That looked like the first of 3 reps, easily. I do have respect for you trying to nail form so much, just that sort of worry about it is not for me. I'd like acceptable safe form.

I reckon you've got a 250kg pull in you. :)


EDIT: don't take this anymore than light hearted btw. :p

I know what you mean SMed. I'm happy with the lift in so much that it wasn't too bad to get up. I'm just not too pleased missing an important que which I know I can do. I need to get the upper back locked in and I think this will translate into a better deadlift.

Saying that, a max lifting is never going to be 100% :)
 
Not really thought about it tbh, really enjoying doing the lower rep stuff though so who knows :)
 
Cheers :)

Chest and biceps tonight. Yes that's right Biceps !
The routine I'm doing at the mo is a kinda of hybrid. I'm lifting heavy where it counts, then doing more boydbuilding style structure for other bits. It should allow me to lift more for certain things and build a some size where needed.

Bench Press
Dips
Incline DB Press
Cable Flyes

Ez Bar Curls
DB Preacher Curls
DB Hammer Curls

Won't take long to do biceps I shouldn't think.
 
Weak PK :p
I actually find my biceps tiring way too quickly on back pulling movements, so stronger biceps would translate to better pull power.
 
OK so I was doing some brocep curls but my heart wasn't in it. It just felt so wrong so I've decided no more brocep curls. Need to rework the program a little.

Got a nice 140 triple on the bench press, but fudged the 145. First rep went a bit wonky and the 2nd rep I needed a finger tip spot. I really need to structure my sets so I'm not overstepping the mark.
 
Just put a **** tonne of pulling in, my broceps respond amazingly well to pulling movements

They should always be referred to as broceps :p

Here's what my new program is shaping up to look like.

It will allow me to do one heavy low rep bench press/squat/military press a week, as well as a lighter more explosive day.
I can also work on my lagging leg size.
