PR’s Like Whoa

PR’s Like Whoa

In a perfect world, an athlete would increase their previous weights and improve their performance with each training session. Unfortunately, that never happens and plateaus are (especially for the conditioned gym-goers) encountered often.

Lately I’m skipping past these flat lines and progressing upwards. I have isolated a few possible reasons and am working on identifying them to maintain these recent results. On to last week’s sessions:

Mon 2/28 – approx. 18hr fasted
* Warmup – medley
* Back Squat – 225×3, 275×3, 295×3, 315×3, 325×3 (PR)
* Weighted Pullups – 50×3, 55×3, 60×3, 65×4 (PR)
* Decline Situps – x10, 10lbx8, 15lbx6

### Thurs 3/3
* WU: hydromassage, misc. calisthenics, kb swings and flings
* Deadlift: feelers then 295×3, 317×3, 335×3, 345×3 (PR). Here’s the set of 345. Really need to work on keeping shoulders back when the weights get heavier…

* Weighted Dips: 70×3, 82×3, 95×2, 95×3 (PR). Last set of 95 in the BFC basement; a little grindy…

That’s it for that week. A little slow on the blogging updates. This week’s workouts coming soon…
