Yeah for sure haha. Need to make sure I keep getting them to know I’m moving forward especially when I start to get higher body fat cus it’s hard to tell in the mirror haha
This is the beauty of being a powerlifter HAH! As long as I stay within 3.5kg of my 90kg competition weight the mirror can go scratch it's ass.

I just have to be strong , never pretty :ROFLMAO:

Saturday: rest,
Weight: 101.43/223lbs
I guess this is why I just felt very full (in terms of physique) randomly. Weight from high day got put on through the day after the leg session which I suppose left me pretty depleted.

My blood sugar was tanked in the morning. It dropped low and I was hungry at 3am felt like I was fucking starving. when I finally woke up at 6am to weigh myself I felt totally weird. I was dizzy, feeling some kind of muscle weakness, and severely off balance, struggling to control my body and lacking motor skills, my legs were pretty fried. I went 100% back to normal after eating. Super unusual considering I gained 2kg 😂 the same night.

meal plan and peds unchanged just keep cruising making smooth progress.

It’s winter now so I might start slowing my leg day reps way harder because I don’t want to aggravate my knees. They get pretty stupid in winter. If I even leave the cover off my knee over night the next day it is quite bad especially after leg day.

Wednesday: legs
Weight: 100.2

Big PR today and just about everything adding reps. some went up a lot.

Adductor
3x25 full stack + 10 (86kg)


Lying hamstring curls

Ramp 20
From 20 x 18kg up to
X20 63kg
Fail at 76kg x15
Cluster set at 31kg 10/10/10/10 40 reps



Leg extension

running the rack in one set

from 15-58 by 5kg intervals 5 reps each with hard pause and contraction until felt in femoris

And back down



Hack press
4 second down tempo. I really want to lower the strain on my knees in the cold, and give my lower back some relief, so I took the other leg press variation and did super slow reps.

Ramp 12

up to 14kg



Hack squat
Big pr. Added 45lbs and now doing 700 for reps.
The top set killed though. Legs were a new level of dead.

1x10 320kg/705lbs
1x 10 (1+1/2+1) 100kg


Abductor
2x50 40kg


I had nothing left by the time I got here
Split squat
triple drop
1x10 40
1x10 30kg
1x amrap 20kg

____________________________________
Thuds: delts and tris

Little moves up with triceps. Adding reps here and there.
Overshot on my overhead today. But still obvious progression.

Rear cable flies
2x25 9kg
1x21 9kg

3x30 15kg

1x12 31.5kg
1x5 40kg



Smith military press (dead stop)
1x5 110kg + 1 100kg
- coach said I need to control this top set better on the way down. Will drop 10-15kg and hit a tempo next time. I can get a little overzealous for my heavy top set, so it’s good to get the reminder.

Rest pause
1x17 REST + 4 ( 21) 60kg


Seated dumbbell lateral raises
UP AND DOWN RACK
X8 + 8. 2.5,5,7.5,10,12.5,15

1x6 + 6 27.5 + 22.5
1x12 22.5kg

Started strong, triceps ran out a bit earlier due to extra reps at beginning. Just gotta keep moving up slowly and pay close attention to the log to know what to beat. Every session I will look at what I logged and shoot to either add weight or reps, no excuses.

Will be doing 2 days off for my optional 2 day rest after leg & shoulders so that thanksgiving falls on a cheat day. It will by my daughters first time she can have a full thanksgiving meal, so I don’t want to miss this. Will not go overboard, planning on having turkey with pasta, but also want to have some clam chowder so it will have to be a cheat next week.

Will keep this here. Once I get 20 on second set I’ll add weight.

Was a bit fried from previous sets, more than last time. Had to drop some weight to keep better ROM.

Stay the same one more time. Can tighten up the movement a bit better.

-lying leg curl ramp 12
22.75 to 64x 9
+ drop set 40kg x 10
Not so good, because I did lying leg curl instead of seated I think the same muscles were a bit tired.

But some good news! Today I was failing from the right leg! My left hamstring has done a lot to catch up to my right since my injury.
It really was a lot weaker before. This was the first time I could feel more fatigue in my right leg when failing the set than failing with the left.

SLDL ramp 8
1x8 60kg
1x8 100kg
1x8 120kg
1x8 160kg
1x8 200kg

I warmed up a little more to dial in technique before I get to my work sets, because I didn’t want to misgroove and load my spinal erectors.
It went very well, and I was able to hit the full set at 200kg.
I need to consider where to go loading wise from here. Because I know when I do the 200kg I won’t have more than a rep or 2 at 220kg/485lbs so I probably will adjust all sets up by 10kg, and ie (90,110,130,170,210) or something like this.

one leg leg curl
30 REP GOAL SET
1x30 30kg

Left and right leg are really getting more similar in strength. I still have to work on the left leg at the full contraction, as that part is slightly weaker. Also my motor skills are worse now in my left, so the control through the range of motion needs to be better since the injury. I will work on this weight again and I need to focus on motor control over the left leg.

Been just keeping log irl.


This week I finally hit 150kg incline for 6, new record. I also got overhead machine with dead stops to 150kg x 8. So gonna move this to 160kg next time. My hamstrings are blowing up now, I added an entire 20kg to my prone curls, and now add a plate to the full stack, after that I can get 260kg x8 for glute bridge/hip thrust whatever it’s called. Rows all added another 10kg or reps. Pull-down added 20kg. I also added 40kg and 4 reps to my belt squat, so it’s now 220kg x 12, but I need to work on the technique, get my knees well over my toes. For upper body and hamstrings this was before adjusting diet and adding ment. So I’m certain my strength is gonna keep blowing up, maybe even quicker now.

Ended the week at 104kg
Monday check in

just realized my new case for my phone might be what is causing pictures to capture light badly in my check ins

Notes for next week
Have some work to do on hamstring/back day technique. I need to remove as much glute engagement from probe and standing leg curl variations.

I will totally abandon belt squats. My ankle mobility just isn’t enough for them. It will be pendulum from now on as I have found the best connection to the quads and must use a lower load than hack squat

Weight: 105.3

Back, no pose. Happy with taper at this body weight. I think muscle is going to the right places on the back, I really need to work on my rear double biceps to keep this shape when posing the arms overhead.

Pull & hamstringe
Weight decreased due to coach feedback about technique. Pull over & pull down fixed pause and more tempo near contraction. Hamstring curls took out all posterior chain engagement, so I don’t move the hips or anything, just purely hamstrings. So this means I had to remove some of the weight.
