Hey buddy,
What are your stats? (height weight age bf% training and diet)
5'8, 180
Been seriously *strength* training over the last 8 months solely with the goal of improving my vertical. Still need more "max strength" unfortunately but bc of training schedule and the field I'm in, proper recovery has made this a slower than usual, over-trained process. I do ballet and modern dance 5 times a week for 3-5 hours a day.
Over the last 8 weeks i have trained at the gym 4-6 times a week with strict form: atg full squats, heavy pulls, OHS, presses and work up to a daily single, double, triple for that day (Bulgarian way of training Olympic lifts). Strength gains have been solidly creeping up. I ve been responding to this programming quicker and better than starting strength, strong lifts etc. which i did in the beginning. Makes sense why it would; You want to be great at your lifts or sport field, one should train smartly daily.
But this daily training is even MOAR grueling. it was tough training 3-5 hours a day in ballet and modern dance classes, now I'm at the gym as well. My classes and dance technique are suffering.
Its like doing MMA for a few hoursand lifting everyday. Borderline over training but that is nature of these beasts. oh and there is not really an off-season so come summer, the training intensity INCREASES. Oh and ballet is a weird sportnwhere you need max strength, power, speed strength, isometric strength, aerobic and anarobic capacity, insane dynamic and static flexibility. Lol its like CROSSFITZ without the stupidity. Ugh. FML wish I were a darker skin color. Lol alright my rant is over, here are my lifts as of late.
Full ATG Squat: 245 (3)
Deadlift: 315 (1)
Bench: ???? Lol what's that
Overhead Press: 135 (1)
I'm thinking about Test Prop and Var at the very least so i won't die from training. im off to they gym.
