Been some time since I’ve posted on my log… I’ve been training though… Here’s what I did today.
A1.) 1 Arm DB Snatch/Push Press Combo 4 x 3; worked up to 90 lb DBs on last set.
B1.) Neutral Grip Pull Up 4 x Max (26,21,15,15)
B2.) 1 Arm DB Floor Press 2x6x85’s, 2x6x90’s
C1.) DB Farmer’s Walk 2x45 seconds x100 lb DBs
C2.) Band Pull Aparts 2x20xPurple/Light Band
D1.) Tate Press 3x12,12,10 (40 lb DBs)
D2.) Ab Wheel 3x10
D3.) Med Ball Toe Touches 2x30x25 lb med ball
Feeling pretty strong. Wish my gym had heavier than 100 lb DBs, I’m gonna start needing heavier soon for some of these lifts 
Body weight hovering around 183-185… Would like to see myself above 190 within the next 4-5 weeks.
7/20/09
1A.) Bench Press from Pins worked up to 245x5; pins set at ~2" above my chest.
2A.) Pull Ups 1x30xbodyweight
3A.) BB Skull Crusher 4x12x75
3B.) Seated DB Clean 4x10x20’s
4A.) DB Lateral Raise 3x15x20’s
4B.) Band Pull Aparts 3x15x black
5A.) Band Curl 2x20x purple
5B.) Band Extension 2x20x green
-Pull ups were a little impromptu challenge to see if I could do it. Last few were “kipped” but oh well, just for fun.
-The bench press variation was new for me; Also known as “bottom up” bench or whatever else you want to call it. Basically utilizing the concentric portion only of the lift from the chest, then pausing on the pins between reps.
7/21/09 ME Lower
1A.) SS Bar Box Squat worked up to 265x5 on a 15" box and 2 second pause on box.
2A.) Walking DB Lunge 4x10x45’s
2B.) Kneeling Band Crunch 4x12xGreen
3A.) GHR 3x8x+50 lbs
3B.) DB Side Bend 3x10x65s
4A.) Band Pull Through 3x15xGreen
4B.) Hanging Leg Raise 3x20
5A.) Back Extension 2x20xbw
5B.) DB Shrug 2x20x75s
-I’m liking this higher volume stuff. Going to stay consistent on this program for a while and push the weight each week.
-Felt some slight pain on the lunges in my glutes, it was really awkward. Went a bit lighter on those…
-As you can see the lower body strength is a bit lacking… I haven’t heavy back squatted for weeks, let alone box squatted; so these numbers will jump up the next few weeks.
7/23/09 RE Upper
1A.) Neutral Grip Pull Up 3x Max Reps (27,21,16)
2A.) 1 Arm Incline DB Press 3x8x70’s
3A.) Standing Press 4x10x110
3B.) Face Pull 4x12xPurple
4A.) DB Rolling Tricep Ext/Tate Press 3x6+6 x40’s
4B.) DB Hammer Curl 3x10x45’s
Was low on time today so had to speed this one up. Not bad…
Haha funny thing is I did arms today as well as calves.
I got my supps today but Im not gonna start using them until Monday.
7/26/09
Been having some annoying pain in my right hand/wrist the last few days and I have no clue what I did for this to come about… Strange. Hope it doesn’t hinder my training this week but if so I’ll have to just tape it and suck it up lol.
One of my athletes completed 3 of the 4 quadrathlon tests today as he is leaving for school (Colorado) on Monday. I did not have all of the numbers to gauge upon prior to today, but I think he did well; mainly considering he tweaked his right hamstring 1 1/2 weeks ago running his fastest 40 ever on grass and a grade 2 AC joint separation 3 weeks ago laying out for a ball. He also managed to put on roughly 10 lbs of solid weight from 182 to ~193 lbs. He just turned 18 a few months back. Some results before/after…
Before:
Weight- 182 lbs
SLJ- 7’10" (March)
Bench- 210 lbs/155 lbs x 14 (March)
Back Squat- 285 lbs (March)
40- High 4.7
OHB- Not tested
Chin Ups: 20 (March)
After
Weight- 193.5 lbs
Bench- 235 lbs. (June)/ 185 lbs x 10
Back Squat- 325 lbs (June)
Chins- 34
40- 4.62h (Wet/soft grass- August)
OHB- 46’6" 8 lb ball (August)
3 Jumps- 26’7"
SLJ- 8’ 9 1/2"
I’m pretty pleased with how he has done from the time I had him up to now. He will be a walk on wide receiver in January 2010. Great athlete, extremely hard worker, and lots of room for improvement leaves me feeling that this kid has tons of potential left in him. I give him all the credit in the world for the strides he made- it just took some proper planning and a few minor tweaks from me to get him going 
Just thought I’d share with you guys
Bringing my training journal back to life. I will update after today’s training session… See ya then!

Giving this a run for a while. My goals right now are just to simply get my strength back to where I know it can be, add some muscle to my frame, and attack some nagging pains I’m still having. Will be including DE lower, RE Upper, and ME Lower into my training week, as well as some GPP work on either Wed or Sat.

4/24/10
Been way too long since I’ve posted on my journal obviously, but it’s time to bring it back…
I’ve been training very hard and with some great consistency the last few months. I just concluded this week with testing a few barbell lifts to get some numbers on where I currently am at.
A summary of this current week:
Monday: Bench Press- 310 lbs x 1, 225 lbs x 13, 30 pull ups.
Wednesday: Standing Long Jump- 9’ 3 1/2", Military Press- 180 lbs., Back Squat- 365 lbs.
Friday: Power Clean- 231 lbs x 1, Deadlift- 407 lbs x 1
Body weight is pretty consistent at 192-194 lbs. lately as well. Pretty good numbers for me, almost all PRs or very close at least. I have not done any sort of dead lifting for nearly 8 weeks so the 407 mark was very good for me. Just getting some accurate numbers to see where I’m at so that mission was accomplished. I’ll keep this updated as best I can from here on out.
Good to be back…
