Max's Training Log - 2014

Tonights training:

Squat 100kg 5/5 felt awesome
Bench 85kg 5/4 missed the last rep but glad with the 1st set
Deadlift 150kg 5 just one set of this, but it felt pretty good
OHP 55kg 4/4 push press to get the 1st rep up, about my limit I think!

Thats the 2nd cycle of HST done, might keep cutting (info in the group) so I'm just thinking what to do training wise.

200g Protein
150g Carbs
75g Fat

Broke the fast at around 1pm with this:

Again, felt good. Lots of stretching and "out the hole" work is proving to be very useful.

Really pleased with these.

Woop, again these felt awesome, gutted I didn't get a video.

Bear in mind 175kg is my current PB.

Grip is holding out really well too which was always the first thing to go.

Strength appears to be responding to the training and nutrition so lets keep at it.
 
I just watched your squat video from 01/08 the guy in the rack next to you is squatting in flip flops, like seriously....

In other news, are you belting for both squats and DLs now?
