Wednesday:
5x1 Flat Bench at 90-100% 1RM
3x8 Incline Bench
3 min between each set
3x8-12 Seated DB Extensions
3x8-12 Elevated Bench Dips


Flat: 245, 260, 275, 290, 300
Incline DB: 3x8 @ 90s
Tricep DB Extensions: 3x8 @ 100
Tricep Cable Pushdowns: 3x8 @ 95

If I added one more ounce to that 300, I fail the lift. It was at least 10 seconds on that 300lb successful lift.

305 next week?

It’s called Average to Savage 2.0 by Greg Nuckols. I found it on r/weight room. It’s a 21 week program broken up in 3 7 week cycles. I’m really enjoying it, and see good strength gains. I’m on week 4 right now, weeks 7 and 14 are deload weeks.

lattin, you are a god damn animal.

Was a little disappointed with my numbers lately until I weighed myself. I’ve now shed off all the quarantine weight and I’m about as lean as I’ve been in a while so some slower strength progression makes sense now. Weighed in at 164.5 (5’10”).

I’ve also made it a point to really hone in my deadlift form this time around so I’m usually leaving 1-2 reps in the tank on my top sets to smooth out progressions.

Deadlift: 247.5x3; 282.5x3; 317.5x4
Squat ss deadhangs: 262.5 5x3; 5x30s

SSB: 5@135#, 5@160, 5+@180 (10)

5 supersets of SSB 5@135# w/ 2 second eccentric + 10 DB flat bench @ 50#

3 giant sets of the following:
10 step ups per side w/ 20# vest
15 seated KB good morning type things @ 88#
15 ab wheels

For the seated KB movement I just sit on a 20" box and do a good morning type movement, but with the KB in my hands instead of on my back. Not sure what the actual name of the that movement is being the weight is hanging in my hands instead of on my back, but it's a seated good morning besides that. Anyways, I mainly feel it working the core to maintain stability, but also has an isometric effect for the upper back. Let me know if y'all have ever done that movement and what the proper name is if there is one.
