Although I'm not at my strongest yet, the shirt was grooving just right and the 635 was pretty clean.

This training camp with Steve is set up with a limited attendance and a non-formal format. We designed it with this format so you can learn all you can from Steve and so that Steve can help tap into what YOU need to do to become better.

Duffin hits a huge deadlift and catches up with some old friends and training partners over the week, while overcoming some life stresses and prepping for some changes in his training plans.

Hernia surgery went well according to the surgeon, but it has been really sore. Also, some sound business advice for anyone looking to start a gym.

Squats/Deads/Asthmatic Prowler and Class Acts

A week of training with some solid bench triples, narrow stance squats and all the accessory volume I can handle. :)

The purpose of this coaching log is to demonstrate the M2 Training Method through the experiences of my training partners and I (as a 20 year veteran in the sport) to show the benefits of high intensity/low volume training along with displaying the equipment I’ve designed to help benefit lifters such as yourself.

I just found this post from 2009 and thought I would post it up again as it has my recommended book list from back then. The other material in this post is somewhat dated but still good to read - Some of it was a great reminder to myself.

Mashed Up Meathead Training Week - Aug 24 - Sept7

MONDAY

The purpose of this training log is to give you a glimpse into a week of training for some women powerlifters. The accompanying video is not a highlight reel, nor is it a compilation of max effort lifts. Rather, this coaching log features the all too neglected “stuff” in-between the max effort lifts and the meets and the highlight reels, and that is the plain old-fashioned sets and reps that powerlifters, in this case, women powerlifters, put in during an off season training program. A MUST SEE.
