24/01/11 - Monday, Smolov Cocktail....

As unable to lift near maximum yet, I decided to go with doing two weeks of Smolov Base Mesocycle, as it is high in volume and frequency. Thus allowing for greater blood flow, and possible increased recovery speed.

As a bonus it will aid my pre-ski training (just over 6 weeks).

Also for shits and giggles, I thought I would alternate squat days with Bench, using the Smolov Jr cycle.

Tonight I tried resting a few hours after squating and then doing some singles in the deadlift, although the squats have helped alot with back, I wasnt able to pull 180kg without pain, so will drop deads, and just do pullups to aid this area.

Nutrition side, GOMAD plus large stew to eat through day, with large meal at night.


24/01/11 - Monday Training

Warmup - 30 min walk with dog
barbell complex, powersnatch (straight leg), wide grip PBN, and squats - just the bar 3-5reps for 3-5 sets

Squat
Weight    Reps   Sets
60kg         5         1
100kg       3         1
120kg       2         1  - added belt, as it felt a bit odd
155kg       9         4  - 3rd set was the easiest

Stretches.

Took 1hr to train.  Back felt very good after squats.

Later tried to do light singles in the dead at 180kg 15x1, but couldnt lockout 180. So dropping this.

Pullups 1x4
