It's been a long time since I was active on this board. Might as well throw up a training log to keep me motivated through school.
Here are my old maxes before I started classes in August:
Raw Squat(no knee wraps): 435lb
Bench: 345.5lbs
Deadlift: 516lbs
Here Are my current working out stats as of last week:
Squat: 405x4
Bench: 315x5 and 325x2
Deadlift:455x4
Running a very simple program. Hitting 3 working sets, shooting for 5 reps. When I hit 5 reps i go up. Very basic linear progression that isn't too taxing on the CNS.
I've done so many different kinds of training protocols from Westside to 5x5 and to date what works best for me are the basics. Lift heavy, focus on good technique, and add weight. Ive done all kinds of periodization and honestly I dont have time for that anymore. I have time to walk into the gym, lift something heavy and walk out.
Next lift day should be either Monday or Tuesday. Monday I have a 4 hour neuro exam so the workout wont be a standard workout. Thinking about heavy pin pulls.
