8-10 reps on the others

Weeks 3 and 4
3x12 for everything

Weeks 5 and 6
3x6 for compounds

Week 7 and 8 (same as weeks 1 and 2)

Week 9 and 10
3x6 on compounds
3x12 on everything else

Week 11 and 12 (same as weeks 3 and 4)

**CowPimp** · 01-26-2006, 11:21 PM

Try some higher intensity training at a higher level of volume. Something like 5x5, 4x6, 6x4, 8x3, etc. Also try using a bit more volume on some occasions: 4x10, 3x15, 5x8, etc.

WantItBad · 01-27-2006, 03:31 PM

Archangel · 01-29-2006, 09:38 AM

Hope your having a good one my Friend!!!

Squaggleboggin · 01-30-2006, 02:58 PM

Some very nice poundages you've got there, and congrats on the benching PR. That's quite a landmark to hit. I doubt I can even get two plates haha. Those bar holds are pretty nice too. Good to see that you're still training your grip like you have been. I'm sure I'll see farmers walks or something similar implemented into your routine as well. Good luck with today's workout.

WantItBad · 01-30-2006, 04:19 PM

monday- jan30 chest tris

Bench-135x8, 185x4, 225x4, 280x3x3 missed that last one i only got 2 on the last set

Good workout today didnt really eat much through out the day and was kinda tired so but other than that i had a great workout

Squaggleboggin · 01-30-2006, 04:37 PM

Those numbers are ridiculous (in a good way of course). Wow. Once you start the sandbag stuff, you'll probably really like it. Use it in a ton of different ways - remember not to limit yourself. Try working each movement you do with a sandbag in rotations. For example, walk with it one week, do triceps extensions with it the next week, do floor press throws the next, then do prisoners squats, then snatch it, etc. It'll help you build up those stabilizers like nothing else and it'll keep your workouts interesting. Just make sure you don't buy the crappy kind held together by plastic only. Mine has an inside plastic waterproof covering and an outside nylon covering, 60 lbs each.

WantItBad · 01-30-2006, 04:38 PM

WTF is a priosner squat?

Hold the sandbag in front of you in the crease of your elbows. Squat down ATG while your torso remains upright and return to standing position. It's quite the back frier and it works your legs pretty well too. Heh, heh, heh...

Nice to see those SLDLs in there, and with good weight as well. I'm sure you'll continue to progress in them as well as your squats. You're doing phenomenally. That comp isn't too, too far off... But you're a beast, so I know you'll do well.

WantItBad · 02-01-2006, 08:40 AM
