So i have set myself new goals, I want to do unassisted chinup's pullups and dips. I am currently doing assisted and a PT who is really friendly at the gym I go to suggested doing a very controlled decline during these exercises and this will help me to achieve my goals quicker so focusing on that. I really hate pull ups atm probably because I am shit at them but quite enjoy dips although I swear sometimes it feels like my ribcage is going to implode.

Today's workout:

8 Sprints (100m each):
70%
80%
90%
100%
2x acceleration to 100%
100%
100%
100m walking between each sprint

5min pause

HIIT:
8 intervalls 20-30sec until total exhaustion, 15 deep breaths between each intervall

Keep them calories burning. Now I am getting myself some ice-cream!

I was supposed to do the following today:

Squat 6 x 145
Bench 6 x 130
Deadlift (conventional) 6 x 210

Instead I decided to try and test my max since I'll be out of commission for a while because of oral surgery (need to have wisdom teeth removed). Ended up with:

Squat 2 x 205
Bench 2 x 143
Deadlift 2 x 265

BW @ 195 lbs (26% bodyfat though >_<) Sets were 6,6,6,3,3,1 for Squat and Bench, 6,3,3,2,2,1 for DL but had enough gas in the tank to pull off doubles.

Not great in general, but all PRs for me. At the beginning of the year one of the goals I set is a 4-digit total by end of year. Totaling 613 today it doesn't seem too far away to me, except for the fact that I have oral surgery scheduled for next week and another one after maybe a month or two. A few questions:

1. Is that four digit total still doable (I actually plan to join some PL meets next year)? If so,
2. The reason for my testing out maxes is that I plan to try out Chad Smith's Juggernaut Method. Has this worked for anyone and what were your gains?
3. If the above isn't too great for reaching my goal (although a lot of people I talked to point out that the program above is great for increasing GPP, which isn't too bad since I plan to go back to BJJ and want to be strong as hell for that) what program/s would work? Are SS / 5x5; mainly with the goal of getting 5 reps on whatever weight I max out on, viable?


Yeah i would start off with something like 5x5 before you look into other programs, you're just above bodyweight squat so you definitely have some room to go with novice gains.


Thanks decaf! Gonna be weird starting out with just the bar again, but it'll be for the best I guess.
Overcome all. Especially plateaus.

You don't have to start with the bar again... calculate your 5RM, take off 10-20% or so and use that weight. Unless you don't work out for 2+ weeks, you're not going to lose any significant amount of strength.

it's a semi closed gym and while it has it's weaklings it prolly has the highest ratio of elite lifters to rookies in the country.

Considering that "the country" has produced many of the worlds strongest men despite a relatively small population, yes pleeze want. What exactly do you mean by "semi-closed" and in that case, how did you go about getting access?

Just tried doing some pushups for the hell of it.... GODDAMN these things became difficult. I haven't done them.... pretty much since I started lifting, and a set of fifteen pushups just left me more exhausted than bench ever has. Before I even started lifting, I could do at least twice this many. There's something to be said for muscle memory, and the fact that I've put on over 50 lbs since I last performed a proper pushup =(

Damn you all in this thread. The suit that I purchased this time last year barely fits around my shoulders, and the waist on the pants are too big. If I make it to 220 by next spring (my goal) I'm going to have to buy a new suit for Med School interviews.

Bah, I don't want to hear it, I have Crohn's. I have to have 3 different waist sizes in pants available at any given time. One for normal use, one for weight loss from flares, one in case I get fluffy from meds.

lol nordic people. In chile there is only 1 guy that can deadlift/squat more than 300 curently.

Today did only BP:
BP 97.5x3x2, 105x3x2, 112.5x3x2, 120x1 KG

Also hit a personal low on weight, 76,05kg this morning (drink yesterday so prolly real weight around 76,5 or smth)

If I lose 1-2 more kg I can start wearing some of my old clothes, and I think when I lose around 4kg I should have ripped abs and shit. If I can sustain my 120kg BP till then its gonna skyrocket when I start bulking again. Btw feel free to suggest some sort of power body building routines, as I have no clue about that but when I go again to 79kg I want to be pure muscle.
