Yesterday:
Skipped the conditioning portion yesterday because I knew testing 1RM back squat would take some time with adequate warm up and building up.
Back squat 1RM test with 20 KB swings + 30 sec plank in between squat sets. My previous 1RM was 255# and I was able to get 260# yesterday without too bad of a grind. It wasn't easy, but wasn't horrible either. Small PR, but squat is my worst lift, so I was happy to get any PR with all of the conditioning I've been doing.
Assistance: Moby "Flower" following the lyrics up/down with 40% on the bar for back squats. 40% never felt so bad

Tried to get a workout in before my kids got up from nap. That ended up being my main 2 lifts for the day.
OHP 115 2x5 1x6
Front squat 135 2x5 1x8
Something about the weights I bought for the house just seems heavier. I was doing 165 on front squats at the gym, now at the house I had to drop the weights. Same thing on incline bench.

Emom-7 rounds
KB swings with 36lbs- 20 reps per round
Ring rows-10 reps per round
Ring puships- 10 reps per round
4th min is active rest
7/20- emom 8 rounds
KB swings-36lbs 20 per round
DB press-40's- 10 per round
Ring chins-4 per round
So trying to do 40 days of emoms. I been so bored since I sold my house and have all most of my equipment in storage. Decided to do this where I am alternating the days as above every day until end of august.
Couple things so far...I suck at keeping my neck in the correct position during swings. Getting better, but I'm not good at it lol.
36lbs is pretty light but I'm breathing like a freight train a couple rounds in and I haven't made the 10 round goal yet
Chins freaking sucked tonight....like really bad. My upper back was really sore from yesterday, but Jesus those sucked.
Press sucked way more than ring pushups especially after round 5
Hoping to make the full 40 days through August and hoping it close to it. Just need something to keep me motivated and I need to, well want to, get shredded again.
Been walking around an hour every morning also.

Same as this, but 8 rounds instead of 7.
My hamstrings are sore as hell and back feels like hit with a sledge, but everything was much easier tonight. Could have prolly pushed more, but trying to not push volume to quickly so that I don't get too sore.

I skipped workouts on Monday and Tuesday due to feeling really tired and sluggish, which isn't like me at all. When I woke up in the morning I just didn't have that umph, and went back to sleep on both days. I know now that I should have taken a deload week around the end of wave 2, because I've been feeling a little slow for the last 3 weeks. My joints and back actually feel great, but it's more of a fatigued feeling. Anyways, I decided to cut the 4 horseman program short by 2 weeks. This week was supposed to be my OHP testing and next week my deadlift testing. I did them both this morning just to see where I stand. I actually hit 150# OHP a month ago on this program, but could only manage 140# this morning. I was able to increase deadlift to 330# from a previous 1RM of 315#. I'll probably take the rest of the week off and do some light and easy conditioning and then start MAPS Anabolic on next Monday. Planning on running phase 1, phase 2, repeat phase 1 and repeat phase 2 on that program, then jumping on the Alshrue powerbuilder program. Let me know if anyone has any questions about 4 horseman - overall great program. I think I just neglected the deload for my nervous system. Strength likely won't go through the roof or anything, but you will definitely be in better overall shape after this program.

Could you give a full review of the 4 horseman, similar to how the guys on reddit weight room do? Just its own thread explaining results, what you liked, what you didn't like, what you would do different, they actual exercises you chose etc
Have you run maps anabolic before? If so can you review that too?

Yea definitely. I’ll write a full review thread up on both of those programs when I have some time. Work has been crazy so it might be a couple of days.
Posted on 7/22/20 at 5:25 pm to AyyyBaw
Awesome, no hurry, just think it would be good to have people reviewing the programs they do.

Not bad, but I would say little wider stance, pick knees out, but back more
