T&G, but with a controlled descent so no bounce. Did that shit once years ago and shook my neck so bad I thought I’d popped something.Originally Posted by The Deadlifting Dog
Yeah, 13 completed is what I got as an amrap. Though I stop at technical failure. Not pulling fatigued grinders on lighter weights.
The +15 TM is training max increase based on the reps. On this week, every rep over 10 adds 2.5 to upper body and 5 to lower.

I dont know what it means still but gd you lift a lotta big shit

Getting there. This coming week will cut my volume but test my actual strength. It’ll let me shed some fatigue before heading into my next volume block.

Bench Press: 1x45/135/185/225/275/295/305/315/325 (miss)/320 (miss)-315 max
Probably could have smoked 320 with how fast 315 moved, but noooo. Had to try for the 10 lbs. jump first, just to spite my gorilla arms.
Ah well, still 40 lbs. heavier than the last time I tested.

I would kill for a 40lb PR
Knowledgeable Member
That last test was almost a year ago, and my bench has always been shit, so it had the most room to improve. 315 still isn’t anything worth dancing about at 205 lbs. body weight, but it’s definitely getting better.

Back Squat:
1x135/225/315/365/405/435/455/465/475/485 (miss)-475 max
Couldn’t even walkout 485, so I’m calling it there for now. Still a pretty decent improvement over my old 435.
VET
475’thats a damn good improvement so two 40 lb PR’s?
Knowledgeable Member
So far. I’m definitely not expecting that out of strict press or deadlift, but we shall see. If I somehow manage to pull 550, I’ll be beyond stoked.
VET
Thats a pretty good lift do you use straps or just go raw?
Knowledgeable Member
Raw. I’ve been using mixed grip forever, but I’m trying to break my tiny ass rat claw thumbs into getting used to hook grip.

Thanks. I’m still nowhere near being competitive even for the 198 class, which I could hit with an easy water cut. I’m slowly getting there though.

Left arm is being a bitch. Can’t tell if it’s brachialis or in the tricep. Either way, I’m definitely good for more once I get this to stop being stupid.

Deadlift: 1x135/225/315/405/455/495/515/545/565 (miss)-545 max
If today was a lesson in anything, it was “fuck self doubt”. I’d have been happy with just 525, but the shitty plates here forces me to make a 30 lbs jump instead of 10. Worked out for the better.
VET
Badass dude your not far away from competition man. In my state deadlift at 198 around 630 i could drop to 198 fairly easily myself but im nowhere near 630 at least yet. This time next year just think where you will be
Knowledgeable Member
Especially once I’m running some stuff more conducive to a better strength to weight ratio. Test/deca/mast/dbol is working for what I want right now, but it’s not the same driver that test/tren/mast/anadrol is.

Not as bad as I was expecting, but the left brach is still being faggoty. Feels like it’s actually reference pain from the lat though. Gonna find out when I get home.

Have you repped out 405 on deadlift? Curious as too how many you can do since your max is 545?
Knowledgeable Member
It’s been months since I bothered in that range. Last time was 400 for 11. No clue now. I’ll find out the next time it comes up in my programming. This weeks’s deadlift work sets are only 345.
Knowledgeable Member
Still haven’t bothered with 405 since my programming jumped it, but hey, close enough with 420 for 10.

Excellent on the 420! Strapped or just chalk?

Just chalk, mixed grip. I don’t strap for anything anymore, unless I suddenly decide to add some 550+ lbs. shrugs in at some point.
Banned- I said my goodbyes.
420 for 10 is impressive!
Knowledgeable Member
It back calculates to a 1RM of roughly 560, so not too far off of what I actually pulled.

Changing grip unfucked the brachialis, but has resulted in slightly weaker leverages for the moment. Performance should pick back up as my body gets used to this pattern.

Definitely feeling better now. The eye/hand twitching and shaking are gone and performance is coming back. I definitely overloaded the shit out of my nervous system with that 1RM week. Bouncing back fast though without “zomg, overtrained, must take all the rest” faggotry that pervades the casual lifting world these days.
