Thank you Mark, just seems ohping has been a bit weird.

Soooooooooo, no more 20 rep squats you said only a couple of weeks ago. Liar

Thanks Kuyt for the concern, but by my last session before the meet I'm in need of a week off anyway!

Haha, about the 20 reps... Well I saw OR do them and became jealous!

Thanks Ravi for the support!

Thanks BtB, push pressing has just been weird.

While you're still thinking, you're also dominating. Great stuff

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

Those heavy duty rows were special in my book, and would have been worth of a happy dance

Strong pressing!

It's not much just somethings that have worked very well for me in the past. I just don't have a whole lot of time so I'm just trying to have a few quick sessions a week.

6/11/12

Deadlift
545x0 was on tip toes for some reason
575x1 A two light lift if that, would like to say a 10 pound PR, but don't feel right about it.
470x3 just wasn't feeling it

Notes: I'm not going to lie, sucked it up tonight. Was feeling pretty good, but didn't have the time and rushed things.

Going to be very busy every week day except Thursday, so going may jump to my other routine just to save time. Also I'm going to have to stop walking at night so going to try and sprint on Saturdays. (I think)

Still a work in progress but not really different to what I'm doing now but just shorter sessions.

Mon
DL 1x5(90%) 1x10(65%) starting weight 10 pound jumps when I hit the rep
Hang Clean 5x2
Squat 1x20 (light)
Abs

Tues
Bench Press Pause 5x1 3x2
2-board 5x1
Chinups 3xwhat ever

Thurs
Squats 3x 20 rep total
Rack Pull 5x2
Anderson(If I have time)
Abs

Fri
Bench Press TnG 3x20 rep total
Banded Bench 5x2
Rows 3x5

Sat
Log C&P 5/3/1
Military 5/3/1
Whatever day (Raises, Curls)

Kind of want to add stiff legged deadlifts but not sure where. It's not really different then what I am doing right now except all the little stuff is pushed to one day.
