09/03/2005 Mega Workout with honk, who visited me

Those young guys, total workout time : 10h including two meals. :whacked

Christoph brought me a self-welded A.A. replica. Great device! Thanks.

Weighs 32.5kg empty (72.5lbs), is perfect for squats and benches also.

All we did:

Grippers: Max attempts, max reps, choker closers and strapholds

Sledge Levers (here I got a new PR with levering a 6kg hammer strict, contest style) :happy

Fat Bar: A.A. DO Lockouts (132.5kg), RT, Clays RH, 60mm dumbell

Block Work: Blobette (17kg lefty and 20kg righty, both PRs) :happy , 20 kg on a wooden blob simulator, IM PGB, different types of wooden PGBs, two hand pinch on euro setup)

Vertical Bar

Little Big Horn

R-Ring

OHL

TTK work

...

Bending (failed on a 6" Red, like 100°, bent two Reds in a row instead, DUed a lot of stuff, like 5.5"x1/4 round CRS and some blues, reverse bent the 5.5"x1/4" round CRS and blues)

Besides this some classical stuff:

Bench Press

Floor Press Lockouts

Squats

DL Lockouts

Strict Overhead One Hand Presses

Overhead Press Lockouts

Did I miss something? No clue but my body is a wreck this morning! :D

Only one day after my super session with honk my expectations weren't that high for my gripper session.

And I was soooo right. :(

Sets on the BBM:

Lefty: 6,5,7

Righty: 30,20,20

Those were evil sets for both hands.

Previous (and still) PRs were 14 for the left and 38 for the right.

So my lefty suffered a lof more from saturdays workout. But that makes sense since I did some events (eg OHL) only with my left.

Was a bit lazy lately concerning updating the log lately.

Mainly due to my chaotic training.

I'm doing now a lot of squats with my new Powerrack.

Got 135kg in the A.A. lockout.

Lifted 32.5 kg on a 50mm wooden PGB (+5kg PR) lefty.

Tried the OH DL thumbless with an oly bar and ...

I'm crap with that.

Even 85kg are tough for me and that righty!! :whacked

Today I did a little show in my company, some DU and some DO bending.

Ah, you were talking about the squats.

I do the reps without any rest.

However, sometimes I'm doing a single short rest (<5secs) close to the end of the set and do another 2-3 reps then.

Squatting has a lot of cardio work for me. :whacked

Two crappy trainings days :angry:

09/10/2005

Morning Squats: 8,10 x 72.5kg

Evening Session:

Squat: 10x72.5kg

BBM:

Left: 8,6

Right 30,23

Felt a bit dizzy hat day, it was extremely hot and my head ached.

09/11/2005

Morning Squats: 12x72.5kg

Evening Session:

Squats: 17x72.5kg

Did some OHL Lockouts. Feels still very uncomfortable for me.

Hard to keep the balance.

Bending

DU: 2x6.0mm, 1xBlue, 0x5"x1/4" CRS round

Rev (Old T.): 2x6.0mm", 1xY

Rev (Head Level): 2x6.0mm

then I switched hands and did the same again:

Rev (Old T.): 2x6.0mm", 1xY

Rev (Head Level): 2x6.0mm

DO: 1xBlue with IM Pads, Failed on a 7" FBBC??? :blink

Afterwards some Pinch

Worked my way up to 30kg on a 50mm wooden block lefty and 35 righty.

Failed on the 17.5kg Blobette again lefty and and the 22kg (miss-loading :trout ) Blobette righty.

Only good lift was a One-hand pinch of 35kg on the euro setup and I could break 37.5kg off the ground.

Nice pinch work! Which width are you using on the euro set up for one hand pinches?

A.A. DO DL from 10"

1x32.5kg

1x72.5kg

1x112.5kg

1x137.5kg (hard but good lift)

A.A. DO DL from 10" with straps

1x170kg

0x200kg

Great work Franky! What does "from 10" mean? Is that from the floor with the 137.5kg and the 10" is the height of the bar off the floor when the plates are resting flat on the floor?

Thanks Ben,

I'm doing lockouts out of my powerrack from the lowest position.

10" is just the total elevation of the plates as if they were standing on 10" high boxes.
