Yesterday was the last DE squat/dl workout I will be doing for a while as I am going to be embarking upon my new routine starting this weekend.
Yesterday looked like this:
Box Squats at 55% 1RM
12sets x 2reps x 250lbs
Started to feel quick sick half way through
Rack Pulls
3×225
3×315
3×405
Ripped my hand open a bit again and my lower back pain returned
GHR on Lat Pulldown
5×60lbs(weight is used for assistance)
5×60lbs
That’s all I did, my abs still hurt from Saturdays workout.
As I said this weekend will be the start of my new routine which looks like this:
Tuesdays: Deads or Rack Pulls: 2x10(for a while to work on form, then drop to 2x5 with higher weight) Upper Back work, bent over rows, T-bar rows: 2x5 Reverse grip narrow grip pull downs 2 x 6 Standing wide grip curls 2 x 8 Saturday: Squats: 2x5 Box Squats: 2x4 Ham/Lower Back work, GHR, Pullthroughs, etc: 2x6 Calves: 2x10 Sunday: Board Press 2x3 Shirted Bench 4x1 Tricep work, dips, JM press, tate press, etc: 2x10 Traps and shoulders, shrugs, upright rows, etc: 1x10
I’m thinking I might change Calves on Saturday to abs or something.
I think there is a lot of sense in frequent low volume workouts… I have been thinking myself of limiting my session to no more than 3 or 4 exercises, but doing something almost daily.
good luck with your new routine… I think cutting back will lead to some big gains.
Thanks, I don’t think I can express how much I want to goto the gym, even just not going on wednesday has made me crave goign to the gym really bad.
Thank god tomorrow if saturday and i get to workout again.
