Sean's Powerlifting Journey

We need to find somebody who isn't as concerned about the legality of scribd to put it up on there.
 
About to do some rumble rolling and barbell mashing but I feel so much better now

I do pretty much all those posted above sometime during the week. :D
 
Walked into the gym and walked right back out. Im at work so it was only a 5 minutes waste of time. Felt off. Hips aren't 100%. I'll go in tomorrow instead.

Not entirely true. I know you worked calves...

I don't care if Arnold did those, these dudes look GAY.^ arnold probably at least looks ripped doing them.
 
lol awesome

I did 2 sets of floor press and realized I was just worn down mentally from work and zero ****s were given. Tomorrow shall be different.

Couldn't find a lacrosse ball but found a ball in the dog section. Not as large but it's hard and hurts....so it works.
 
Am I too retarded to understand Joker sets? How can I lift hypermaximal weights, like 110% of 1RM?

Help!
 
Haven't gotten too deep into the joker sets but if this what it says think of this: It's 110% of your trainin 1RM, which is 10% of your true 1RM, so really you're pulling your true 1RM.
 
Done with the sports therapist. She gave me half off for being military...so I spent 25 bucks for her to dig her elbow into my glutes and for her to give me some self psoas release and ball mashing lessons. Didnt realize how tight my gluteus minimus and medius were until I felt a ****ing elbow drive into it.

I'm going every other week..
 
It'd help if I could read. From the FIRST SENTENCE;

Begin this program with a training max of 85% of your best training 1RM or use the max calculator to find your estimated max.

Amazing, isn't it? Both from the release and the "got damn I'm tight" standpoints.

So worth it. Wish I had started at your age.
 
315 floor press=miserable fail. Hit 335 2 months ago. I have some serious thinking to do regarding my training.

a)keep going
b)ditch gear, continue to 198 (so I can achieve elite and state squat record)
c)ditch gear, eat what I want, don't worry about weight, screw elite 198

C) is easiest but most logical, A) and B) are accomplishments

If I ditch gear, I plan on doing 5/3/1 with some aspect of the cube I have planned out in my head
 
You hit it raw and now missed raw? Any idea what went wrong here? Do you think gear is making your raw strength weak?
 
I've barely trained in the shirt, and the shirt I have has barely any carry over

I have had zero bench progression since December, am gonna give the new bench shirt a go and see how she is, but it's still pretty bad. I can't let myself use a shirt as a crutch

Thoracic tight. My grip width felt comfortable, I guess that doesn't necessarily mean ideal. Little finger on the power ring.

Focus on your thoracic mobility to make sure you're keeping optimal tightness and get that initial burst off of the floor.
 
Cube Method Floor Press

Floor Press, 1x20lb chain ea/ side, total weight at top
225x5
255x5
275x3
315x0

Incline DB Press

My diet will be off the rest of the week. Busy weekend in the harbor and I'm on duty so I'll eat what/when I can. Lifting may be up on the air too.
 
I vote option B, get as strong as you can at 198. When you stop getting strong and start getting hurt, move up to 220.
