      7 Mar

      Power Clean – 4 x 1 x 80kg, 3 x 1 x 85kg
      Hex DL – 5 x 100kg, 5 x 117.5kg, 8 x 132.5kg
      Hip Thrust – 7,7,7,6 x 105kg
      Swiss Ball HS Curls – 14,13,13

      Switched deadlift to 5/3/1 as I wanted one maximal effort set to save my back. I missed out the Monday leg session which hasn’t been going well, choosing instead to work on mobility and soft tissue.

        25 Feb

        ATS – 3 x 4
        Tuck Jumps – 2 x 10
        Back Squat – 6,5,5 x 112.5kg
        RDL – 6,6,5 x 95kg
        DB Reverse Lunge – 12,12,9 x 15kg (grip)
        Seated SL Calf Raise – 2 x 15 x 25kg
        Hollow Rock – 3 x 30 secs
        Prone Hyper-extension – 3 x 6
        Jump Squats – 150 in ?? under 6 minutes

        Back is still causing me problems on Mondays, will skip next week and do rehab and mobility work instead. I was timing jump squats but I reset it by mistake without checking the time.

        27 Feb

        Fasted Walking – 35 mins

        28 Feb

        Vert Test – none (wet)
        Power Clean – 5 x 1 x 80kg, 3 x 1 x 85kg
        Hex DL – 3,3,3,3,4 x 130kg
        Hip Thrust – 8,7,7,6 x 105kg
        Swiss Ball HS Curls – 13,14,15
        Conditioning (5 mountain climbers, 1 burpee x 25) – 8 mins 52 secs

        Upped a few sets of power cleans, good to challenge myself. Wore wrist straps for that as I was trying hook grip without much success. I want to transition to fewer total sets of deadlifts, even with the hex bar, as most programs use 1 maximal top set to save the lower and mid back from fatiguing.

          Grip work is killer, didn’t have much left after this session.

          I was doing this straight out of bed and wasn’t paying attention, final exercise wa supposed to be concentration curls so I’ll do that twice next week to compensate.

            18 Feb

            ATS – 3 x 4
            Tuck Jumps – 2 x 10
            Back Squat – 6,5,5 x 112.5kg (last set with belt)
            RDL – 3 x 6 x 90kg
            DB Reverse Lunge – 3 x 12 x 15kg
            Lateral Lunge – 2 x 12 x 10kg
            SL Calf Raise – 3 x 12 x 10kg
            Hollow Rock – 40,40,30 secs
            Prone Hyper-extension – 3 x 6
            Jump Squats – 150 in 4:33

            ATS is Around The Square, an exercise from Vert Shock. I tweaked my back in the tuck jumps and didn’t want to injure myself in squats so stuck my lifting belt on for the final set. Jump squats aren’t too bad, might put hands on head to make it more aerobically challenging.

            21 Feb

            Vert Test 52cm/20.5″
            Power Clean – 8 x 1 x 80kg
            Hex DL – 5 x 3 x 125kg
            Hip Thrust – 4 x 8 x 100kg
            Swiss Ball HS Curls – 15,10,13,11

            Bit miffed my vert isn’t higher. Tried hook grip for power cleans, weird but has potential. Hex DL still really easy.

              Pullups – 8,8,7 x 10kg
              Pendlay Rows – 3 x 6 x 75kg
              Zottman Curls – 3 x 7 x 15kg
              Bench Dips – 10,10,9 x 40kg
              Incline DB Curls – 3 x 11 x 10kg
              Decline Skull Crushers – 12,11,9 x 31kg
              Rear Delt Raise – 2 x 12 x 2.5kg
              BB Wrist Flexion – 20,20,16 x 20kg
              DB Wrist Flexion – 20,20,16 x 4.5kg
              Leg Raises – 3 x 12

              Bench still going strong, every rep done. Made bench dips harder by shortening the recovery because I don’t want to start piling 50-60kg on my lap.

              22 Feb

              Seated OH DB Extension – 3 x 12 x 20kg
              DB Preacher Curl – 2 x 10 x 12kg
              Seated DB Hold – 55,45,33 secs x 20kg

              1 Arm DB Ext – 12,12,10 x 12kg
              Concentration Curls – 2 x 10 x 12kg

              Bumped regular curls to 36kg and felt wayyy better, bicep was definitely activating here. Arms are feeling thick now, 16 inches with the pump.
