LiE's Log Part 2

LiE · 1 Mar 2013 at 19:09

Here's the 200x4 deadlift. Nothing remarkable but helps show what I am explaining above.

mrthingyx · 1 Mar 2013 at 21:33

Those rows... :eek:

LiE · 1 Mar 2013 at 21:37

I got a bit carried away loading up 64kg, man it was heavy.. my left arm nearly gave up the ghost.

icecold · 1 Mar 2013 at 22:14

We need to invent some new terms for you workouts, beast mode doesn't cut it any more :cool:

You could be right about the deads, but be careful you don't screw things up trying a new style.

lol at how well you're embracing grunt gains. I'm so proud :')

LiE · 1 Mar 2013 at 22:29

Training has certainly improved since home training. The grunting seems to help in so many ways. We should arrange a meet soon, maybe end of March?

That's what I was thinking really, my style works but I think needs a little tweaking to get the most out of it. I am very aware my 255 at the comp didn't feel good so if I want to push things more I need to sort that out.

Steedie · 1 Mar 2013 at 22:32

All kinds of brothel gains. Mirin those insane rows

icecold · 1 Mar 2013 at 22:34

I'm basically good for a meet whenever. I might be planning a sport form at the end of the month so that sounds pretty good.

Let's provisionally say end of March then?

Nice bank holiday weekend meet?

LiE · 4 Mar 2013 at 19:51

15 minutes leg soft tissue and shoulder/pec mob.

Squats
BAR x lots x2
70x10
90x5
110x3
130x2
150x1
175x5 - PB + pretty good speed (+5kg on last week)
175x5 - fatigue creeping in towards the end
175x5 - last couple reps fatigue was making things hard.
Please with my strength. Clearly that OAKG 6.6%.

Squats - with band around knees
70x10 - these feel really nice, just getting a feel.
90x15 - the band seems to help with stability a lot (some volume for Steedie <3)

DBSS (L/R)
28x8/10
28x10/6 - not enough rest for the right leg
28x10/10 finally a decent set.

Glute Med band - probably 70+ reps here.

Skillmister · 4 Mar 2013 at 20:00

All kinds of OAKG gains, mirin!

mrthingyx · 4 Mar 2013 at 20:08

Preloading with OAKG, too?

Awesome. :cool:

Dumb question, but did it feel any different or just meh? I'm going to go in for re-loading when my fasting training sorts itself out...

LiE · 4 Mar 2013 at 20:23

I went with 7g pre but honestly I couldn't say, I take all sorts in my pre-workout

Syla5 · 4 Mar 2013 at 20:44

Nice squatting gratz on the PB.

I would say that 7g isn't enough, reading through the article you posted the other day even the smallest does was 10g. I am strongly considering 15g PWO and 15g Pre bed when my stock arrives.

LiE · 4 Mar 2013 at 20:57

Thanks, feeling good about my squats.

Yea 7g is probably too little. Research seems to suggest bigger dosages for a change.

mrthingyx · 4 Mar 2013 at 21:03

Do it.

This post-intermittant carb fastback loading is playing sweet havoc with my energy levels a the moment, soI won't be doing it or at least anther couple of days...

Pigeon_Killer · 4 Mar 2013 at 21:12

Congratulations on the PB LiE. Got to say that third set looked the strongest of all

I'll try it on bench day for some gains.

Thanks

got more in the tank I think so hopefully a short lived PB. I haven't really done lots of 5s so for me this is all uncharted territory.

LiE · 5 Mar 2013 at 17:15

Major ass DOMs today, clearly need 50g OAKG pre bed.

Begbie · 5 Mar 2013 at 18:21

This OAKG stuff sounds awesome!

You take it post work out and then before bed? Helps with sleep I've read too?
