GOMAD 7 AND 8

7/14/2011

0 Comments

 
I drank a gallon yesterday and rested.  I drank a gallon today too.  I have gained anywhere from 3-7 pounds so far!   I say 3-7 because I have not had a good chance to weigh myself accurately.  A week ago i was 160.5 and I was 167 when I weighted myself in the afternoon this last Tuesday.  Since it was in the afternoon and not in the morning I am not sure how accurate it was but regardless I have never weighed that much before. Regardless of my weight, my strength numbers are going up for sure, and those numbers don't lie.  Here's today's workout, DEADLIFT DAY.

Squat
45x5x2
65x5x2
95x5
104x5
125x5 a week ago this was a struggle.  Today it went up easy.
135x5
140x5x3
Squat Volume = 5500 lbs
No TFL stuff today with the squat.  I stretched a bit more before my session by doing a prayer squat, stretching my adductors by driving my knees out with my elbows.  I also focused more thought on driving the knows out when driving out of the whole in the squat.  

Press
45x5x2
65x5x2
75x5
80x5x3
Press Volume = 2350 lbs
I was planning on doing 8g lbs on the press today but went with 80.  Last week I push pressed a couple of the presses at 80 pounds and this week I was able to lift them clean.

Deadlift
115x5
135x5
165x5
175x5
185x5
200x5 5RM! Yes!  That is a big number for me.  My PR deadlift is 220 and I only did it one time a couple weeks before I hurt my back.  300 is in the not too distant future!

Deadlift Volume = 4875 lbs
Total Volume 7/14/2011 12725 lbs
