re: Daily Strength Check-In

Chest today. Complete shite work out today. 39k lbs lifted. Rest, regroup and get back at it tomorrow.

5 supersets of banded SSB squats and the contrast platform deads for a single with a 3 second isometric off the floor.

We should start a spoof thread where you post your workout then I post a few photos photos of me trying to recreate what the hell I think it means.

Recovery upper.

3 rounds of weighted, feet elevated pushups, band rows, side laterals and banded close grip bench.

Tabata sledgehammer swings and bloodflow restriction biceps to finish.

Standing OHP: 135x8
Trap-bar deads: 315x6

What program do you run with that type of volume and what are your goals?

I use the JEFIT app. I built my own workouts in the app.
My goals are to get stronger without stressing my joints and building muscle stamina.

Takes me about an hour and a half to work out. When I do heavy weight with low reps my joints hurt to bad to work out. I've found this to be the best way for me to get my body where I want to be.

Bench: 270x5
Squat: Triples at 315

That's kind of a blunter version of my question. That's about 3-4 times the number of exercises most good programs have.

Squatted heavy doubles to 355 to prep for turkey yesterday, then some air bike tabata.

Today, heavy bench and deads. Missed my 265 goal on bench but breezed throught 475 on deads. Assistance after that, finishing with a strongman superset of farmers walks and 250 lb sandbag carries. Off for a hike because it's a beautiful day.

lsu777, I have a question or two for you? Are you a certified trainer or Dr? What's your goals compared to mine?

Yes, I have worked out with a number of certified trainers and local meatheads. They don't have an issue with what I do.

Since I've had my thyroid removed I've actually had my two Dr's review what I was doing to make sure it was all good.

They said they wouldn't do it, but it didn't concern them.

Yes I am a certified trainer, including cpps and cpps football but it is not my job, I am a civil engineer. Has nothing to do with this. But to answer your question or what you are alluding to, I would put my knowledge of programming up against almost anybody.

A) most personal trainers work know good programming if it slapped them in a face.

B) most doctors are retarded when it comes to exercise and nutrition. Very few, less than 10% know shite.

Has nothing to do with it our your goals. For every goal possible your routine is dumb and plain retarded.

If you have a joint problem, last thing you want to do is put that kind of repetitive stress on it. You can use other intensity techniques other than weight and adding in stupid amounts of volume.
