Training Log, 4/29/2014

Posted: April 29, 2014 in Uncategorized

Strength:

  • Deadlift: 135×5, 185×3, 225×3, 275×3, 315×3, 355×5 (last two sets w/belt, last set w/ straps), Est. 1RM: 413
  • Press: 45×10, 65×8, 80×8, 95×8, 115×8, 130×6 + 3 push presses (Est. 1RM: 156)

Conditioning:

  • 2 rounds of 400m run, 21 dumbbell swings (55 lb), 12 pullups

Notes:

  • Lower back was still a bit fatigue from yesterday’s squats, but warmed up over the course of the sets.  Last set felt really good.
  • Overhead pressing is a bit weak relative to my other lifts.  Going forward, I’m lowering the TM just a bit, but will try to keep this in line with the rest of my lifts.
  • I wonder if my upper-body lifts are suffering from doing them after taxing squat and deadlift work,  I may need to try change order on some days, or doing one day a week where I just get minimum reps on one lift and go for max reps on the other.
  • It’s depressing how out-of-shape I am.  I planned to do 3 rounds but barely made it through 2.  To be fair, the conditioning I’m doing is coming after somewhat taxing lifting, but still.
