Hi Guys
Went to Ireland for a piss up and ended up drinking lots of the black stuff, started new job working very long hours and have neglected my training and diet for the past 2 weeks. Went to the gym today and was expecting to be real weak. Will only be going to gym at weekend now so 2 w/o per week and decided to concentrate mainly on compound movements.
Today Chest/Back
Chest
Hammerstrength Flat Bench
warm up
50kg*10
100kg*6
150kg*6
170kg*4
180kg half a rep and held for as long as I could!
Straight on to dead lifts
70kg*10
100kg*6
170kg*6
190kg*6
200kg*1
220kg*1
3 sets of pullups 8 reps each
Lat pull down fairly light weight concentrating on form
Back to chest
30kg 3 sets of 2 sets of 10 on flys and third set to failure (8 reps)
3 sets on cross cables
40 crunches.
Before starting my new job 2 weeks ago I have 5 weeks off work and trained 4-5 times per week going heavy, do you think I over trained and that having the two weeks off has actually benefited me? Also on Sunday I plan to do squats, calf raises barbell press for shoulders and up right row is this sufficient?
Thanks
