Metal's Peak

[Gibsonator]

I would love to train with you for a week, it would probably kill me but I would be so down for it haha

 

[Metalhead1]

Was supposed to be a dynamic lower day. Squats, deads, and all the fun stuff.

The agenda was
Squats w/chains
418x2x10sets
I made ****ing 5 sets, and i stalled.
Finished with 2 sets of rev hypers.

Complete deload, and rest next week. I can't stand being disappointed for missed lifts.

as you know - every lift can’t be stellar. You got
this and just have to keep pushing once your body gives you the okay.

Hardcore shit brotha! It was only when I got serious about hitting my lower body that my upper body got stronger and followed suit!

 

[Biggin]

Great work brother!

damn tinymk, those best raw lifts of yours are crazy! I can only dream of doing those, but definitely gives me something to work towards!

2" Cambered Bar
243x8x8sets
• Work on wider grip/position
• Rest <60 seconds
Attempted this last month, and only got 55 reps. After fixing technique, and a wider grip, finally some improvement.

DB Floor Press
90x10
100x10
105x10
115x10

Gray Band V Bar PD
3x15
Our only cable system is ****ed, so had to improvise.

One ARM Row
125x8
135x8
140x8
Left is definitely stronger than the right. Going to start pulling with my weaker grip to improve the imbalance.

Woke up at 257. Going to decrease carbs in the very future to be walking around at 242. I have no reason to be 257, other than to say I'm 257. When my lifts are ready, my weight will be 242. Where it needs to be without any drastic cuts.

 

[tinymk]

Be a big 42 pounder, figured you to be at 275. Enjoy a Deload I hate em but when everything starts to crumble you Deload. I expect I will hit the platform June 6, 2020. When is your event?

One day I'll jump to 275 if I do what I want at 242. Plan is to compete by the end of the year as long as my tecnhique is where it needs to be. Strength is there. Just technique flaws at the higher percentages.

Hell yeah. How many records are you going to set??

 

[tinymk]

I will be my first splash in the 50+ raw division. I expect to break a few national uspa records but will have to get into a world event to break the world records. I still hold 5/8 WR’s in the IPL for the 45-48 group. All new records. You will be ready to smash things up as soon as your head is ready brother. Seem strong AF now let alone by years end Best to you

20 minutes cardio

Easy upper recovery day. Few days in on cardio just for heart health, and it has already vastly improved. Hoping with the cardio it helps overall on recovery as well.

 

[tinymk]

Lotta band work brother. Great for recovery!!

 

[Metalhead1]

Lotta band work brother. Great for recovery!!

Absolutely. It's been really beneficial to me over the short amount of time I've incorporated it. Do you use them for recovery at all?

 

[tinymk]

I do brother very similar to what your doing. Should be ready to blast the weights next week.

SSB Box Squats
282x2x10sets

Bow Bar
249x8x7sets

Stopping here with the bow bar for rep method. It worked as far as making me stay tighter, but the range of motion became aggravating on the shoulders for this much volume. I'll save myself the wear and tear.

561x1*
Started wrapping at 539. ****ed me up, and made it feel like my knees were caving in out of the hole. Kind of ****ed with me mentally. Did 561 with a looser wrap, and it was a mich smoother rep. I know I had more, but called it there.

Dimmel Deads w/bands
