Cown Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Good on ya for not walking out when you wanted to! I've had many, many days like that. I always feel awesome when I finish the workout, though. Actually, I think those days have been some of my best. I get angry at myself for nearly giving in, so I push harder lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mini Forklift Posted July 10, 2012 Author Share Posted July 10, 2012 That last set, the 48 x 5 was a PB. Forgot to write that on there. I think I could have pressed heavier d.bells than that if I hadn't have done so much before the third set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mini Forklift Posted July 11, 2012 Author Share Posted July 11, 2012 Didn't train today, have had a mild gastric bug. Feel fine but had the shits lol, thought it safer to take the day off rather than shit my pants pulling a heavy DL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mini Forklift Posted July 12, 2012 Author Share Posted July 12, 2012 Thanks guys My stomach is feeling better today, must have been fighting something as my pulse was up at 90bpm yesterday. I check my pulse as soon as I wake up every morning, if I'm in the 60's I can usually assume that I'm either starting to become either overtrained or sick. I'm back down in the low 60's today so I'm hopefully coming right. Should be deadlifting this afternoon if I can get away from work for an hour.

mattpb Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 AWESOME, made me laugh so much. Definately give the deadlifts a miss.Glad your feeling better now though.

Mini Forklift Posted July 12, 2012 Author Share Posted July 12, 2012 Looks like you are on track for a big pull by December. I was a little pushed for time today so didn't rest much in between sets. The 352 (3.5PPS) wasn't overly tough; I'll go straight into a light week next week so it will be another 3wks or so before I hit maximal DL's again, I'm pretty sure I'll be able to pull 374 then. The Raw Powerlifting Champs are in December, I'd like a 440 deadlift but we'll see. I've still got a good amount of room for weight gain as well, so that will help out the strength side of things. I normally take my bodyweight up to 145-148 and then drop back so I am close to 145 as possible. Last few meets I've competed at around 143 which has been good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mini Forklift Posted July 13, 2012 Author Share Posted July 13, 2012 My damn stomach is bloated as hell today, just feeling generally uncomfortable right now. Have decided to hit legs over the weekend, no point trying to squat and leg press when I'm burping and farting every couple of minutes lol. Temporary setback.

Looking forward to really hammering chest tonight, will throw a few OH presses into the mix as well.
