TrinitronMaximum's Training Log

Monday's workout - man I'm bad at putting these up

Squat (w/ safety squat bar) 5x3 @ 225 - I really liked these, as they forced me to keep my chest up

Bench 0x235 (fail) 1x225 - my spotter grabbed the 235 a bit prematurely, though I had hit a sticking point. Next time...

Behind the Neck Pres 8/8/7 @ 90

Bentover row (DB) 3x6 @ 85

Romanian Deadlift 3x8 @ 105 - I thought my hamstrings were flexible but apparently not
 
Wednesday's workout

DL 5/5/7 @ 275

Incline DB Bench - 3x5 @ 60 - I did these one arm at a time, seemed better

Front Squat 3x5 @ 160 - working on hip drive, felt easier

OH Shrug 3x8 @ 105

Push Press 3x6 @ 135 - was my first time doing these in a while, I might have overdone the shoulders today

Oh well
 
Friday's workout

Squat 1/1/1/0 @ 290 (+5 PR) - I've noticed that since I've started consciously thinking about using more hip drive I'm experiencing pain and soreness in the muscles all around my hips. This may also be because I've been practicing the 3rd world squat.

SOHP 3x6 @ 115

Clean 15x1 @ 50kg - I will try to post a vid of my form soon

Seated Row 3x6 @ 180

Chinups 6/6 - Chinups are with your palms facing you right?

Dips 7/7 - I really hate dips. I stopped doing them when I started lifting because my shoulder joints and breastbone always hurt after doing them. Even when I switch to the dip machine and do a very low weight (like 10 lbs dips) it still hurts. After reading about how effective they are as an exercise, however, I decided to try and work on them.
 
Nice PR

If you are experiencing pain back off a bit and lower the weight.
 
Overhead Squat 5x5 @ 95/105/105/105/105

Push Press 5x5 @ 135

Suitcase DL 5x3 @ 115/135/135/145(failed last rep of left hand)/135

Snatch-grip Hang High Pull 5x5 @ 95/95/105/105/105 - I think that's what these are called. Basically I was trying to do a hang snatch but only pulled it to chin level. I am going to try hang snatches on Wednesday!
 
Today I tried my very first 20 rep squat. I got to 16 reps :(. Looking back I don't think I was nearly mentally prepared enough to gut out those last 4 reps, but I think I'm going to do the squats'n'milk program for 6 weeks, I've heard good things.

Squats 1x16 @ 215 - I felt bad I didn't make it to 20 reps, so after this I did 1x6 @ 195

Hang Power Snatch 5x20kg, 3x20kg, 3x~25kg, 2x~30kg, 3x~25kg - These actually felt pretty good, I will post some videos of power snatches on friday

Bench Press 6x3 @ 200 - Maybe a bit much after the squats

Snatch-grip Deadlift 6x3 @ 165/185/205/205/205/215 - I used the hook grip for these, very painful

Felt like complete shit today. Was lifting pretty poorly as well. I'm going to take friday off since I'm getting my wisdom teeth removed and don't think I can lift anyway. I'll start my new routine next Mon.

Dips 8/6/6 @ BW

I cannot do dips. I don't understand why. I mean, I am physically able to do them as you can see, but I feel a lot of pressure on my shoulder joints, and at my sternum. I tried to work onto them but my body just hates the motion. :(

Front Squat 4x5 @ 105/135/155/175

Skipped situps today as my abs were quite shot. Instead of chinups I tried to learn how to do kipping pullups/power straits. Either I'm not strong enough or its heavily technique based.
