Current Training

For those of you who are interested in seeing how I train, take a gander below. Clients, I don't just harp at you to work hard. Below, you will see me doing the same thing, bringing the intensity.

The goal of this training log is two-fold: to keep both you AND me accountable. We all have lives, some less than others (stop looking at me), and every once in a while, we need to motivate ourselves. One of the best ways to gain motivation is to watch others (or yourself) train. And if you are one of my clients, you have heard me countless times telling you to keep a training journal. 

With each post, I will try to include a video, subjective thoughts, and what I think I need to improve on. It's good to keep a track of these things because they allow you insight into what you need to get closer to your goals.

What am I currently doing?

3-day, full-body training program. Each day has a focus of bench, squat, and deadlift. Before trying to mimic what I do, remember that my lifting qualification will probably be different from yours. That is, if you are a rookie lifter, you really have no business replicating my training.

3-week cycles
Week 1: Single up to 80%; 8-10 x 3
Week 2: Single up to 82.5%; 8-10 x 2
Week 3: Single up to 85%; 8-10 x 1
Week 4: Off-load, 60%
Week 5: Add 5-10# on single; 6-8 x 3
Week 6: Add 5-10# on single; 6-8 x 2
Week 7: Add 5-10# on single; 6-8 x 1
Week 8: Off-load, 60%

Enjoy!
