Figured I would just throw this up. Been training for a bit adding a more work in each week. Nothing to write home about but been working the dead alittle more then usual to see what happens. Desire has been waning for qite some time now since the gym move. Always watching what people are into and Dan Green go beltless while just grinding though shit and then him pulling 900 at the Arnold motivates anyone I think. Never been a big beltless guy, ever, but why not see where it goes. Not sure if Dan just likes prime numbers when he lifts or that is just where the grind seems to go, but I modified it a bit to do make the work sets 5,7,5. I like the banded deads more then regular ones for whatever reason they seem less painful(believe that right!) Also made one pull during week, a sumo with a odd bar and the main dead day being the banded one. Roll it a few more weeks and see what happens. 3/29 Activations with some BT work. Plank work (ball and sides)5 rounds building up time each round Prowler 25lb one lap(1/5 mile, much harder on concrete then at old gym), One lap walk 1/3 plus mile 3/28 Ab work planks and bird dogs Machine leg press warmup several sets of 6 to 8 reps Reverse hypers 3 pre, 1 middle, 2 sets post Banded deadlift with average bands on each side, no belt, working up to 5,7,5. This is the second week of this. Added about 50 to 75lb more band tension then the previous week Bosu balls for wide stance two hand swings. First time wide on two bosu balls. 4x15 10 mins magic carpet sled drag inside on turf, 300lb ish forwards and backwards with upper body strap 3/27 15mins stepmill Ab work pulldowns and obliques 5x8 each Back work Hammer rows 10x10 Hammer press 10x 8 to 10 with paused contractions at bottom. Rope tricep mixed with fat bell hammer curls, 8 rounds of each 3/26 Off 3/25 Activations , BT and breathing work One prowler push with 25lb on the arms Three laps upper sled 3/24 15 mins stepmill Reverse hypers 4x15 Bandbell bar deadlifts off 4 inch blocks. worked up to 5,7,5 no belt with sumo stance
