Workouts

10/12

  1. ME Flat Bench-3RMx245(I have gotten weaker in the bench)
  2. ME Box Squat(1in above Parallel)-3x315(didnt really go near max, this was easy, needed to move onto assistance work)
  3. In circuit fashion-Dipsx6, DB Rows(85)x6, Elbows Out Rows(45)x6, Pull Upsx6, Rear Delt Raises(10)x6, External Rotations(25)x6. Had to end it there, ran out of time and had to go to practice. Was going to workout after but weightroom was closed.

numba,

how do you regulate squat depth to “inch above parallel”

tanx

I squat onto a box that is one inch above where the top of my thighs reach parallel. By the way meant to lift today, but coaches are full of shit.

Not a workout, just something fun.We were running sprints yesterday for some conditioning and after being warmed up well, one of the 100m runners who is on the team(runs consistant 11.1’s) said make me look fast Ian. I told him I’d ghost his ass. He said fine, lets go. 40m sprint, I dipped on his ass from the start and slowed up the last 5m, he was like holy shit, how you do that. Now because of speed endurance, probably a better top speed, it’d be a tie/close race round 55m and at 60m he would probably start pulling away, but it was fun, in fact it was elimination time bitches, showed that muthafucka that the big creole man could run!!

HAHA nice job

Threw real hard yesterday, no pain!!! Sore in the deaccelerators. Guess who has an 80mph fastball after not throwing a baseball for years…haha I wish I could throw mid 90’s though, I wouldnt be in school anymore, just waiting for the draft. I have to learn how to throw the other pitches, curveball, slider, change up, and I think theres one called a fork…
Also for an update, I am buzzed, sore, and had a nice big letdown…ahhhh

Hmm I have been pondering, say someone has a very high stride frequency, good strength levels, yet not running the greatest times. My assumption would be force application. Would this athlete be better served with bounds for extended distances, hills, and plyo’s while cutting down sprinting volume a little? Oh yeh and by the way, was throwing a football on the sideline, rifled one on a rope 45 yards, coaches were very impressed, haha yes a fast, short, strong armed quarterback.

Kerry lost, this fuckin blows…
Deadlift-2x1x405
Power Clean-1x1x225

  1. Never got up to training weights of 225 or 405 in the powerclean or deadlift. Funny thing is, they were easy…

2.I am starting to get obsessive about strength to weight ratio, so I have gone on a reduced calorie diet, and am trying to keep my lifts TUT as low as possible, volume low, and load high.

  1. Planning on nine reps per week for the clean, deadlift, and pull up variations, with 3 reps per workout, at 1 rep per set with a high load and 3-5 min between sets. As well I will do a light plyo in the beginning, as I loose more weight I can do more intense ones.

  2. For upper body pressing strength I will use chain/ring push ups and planche drills.

Spirits were lifted as I found out some exciting news. My friends parents will be gone for four days in December, leaving a rather large house with lots of fun stuff to play with in the hands of an 18 year old…muaaahhahahahaaaha…As well football ends in a week, will start doing GPP workouts to lower bodyfat, raise work capacity, etc… etc…

  1. Frog Stand-1 min
  2. Lever progression thingy-1 min
  3. Pistols-3x1 with 3 min rest between(I am heavy so these are quite a challenge)
  4. Weighted Pull/Chin Ups-3x1 w/ 40lb vest on

Hey Numba - Great Signature… I love Third Eye!

haha hell yes, hell yes

Soreness from gymnastic moves still exists, so no upper body today, and no time to do power cleans.
Trap Bar Deadlift-1x1x405, 2x1x425
These werent hard but the bar tilted forwards on the sets with 425. I could have handled 500 if I could figure out the grip. Lost weight also.
