Jake starts the OLD SCHOOL routine...

[Edu]

whats the tempo of each rep.
And the rest between the sets.

 

[The Shadow]

Heavy - "if" progress halts on the squats....drop the stiff deads back to 10-12 reps..

Good advice Corn, I am going to break schedule tonight and train with someone I am hoping to get to join me. Tempo is medium and rest period is short. A brief but intense 45 minutes

Corn -

What do you think of replacing seated military press with a standing push-press/jerk?

And what of replacing the stiff-legged deads with romanians off of a 3" plate?

 

[The Shadow]

Wear - sounds good....

Fortes - absolutely on the push presses - do them in a rack.....the jerk form the floor might be too much for the lumbars - try it though. Romanians are fine - if you can do them off a platform then you are exceptionally flexible

Barbell Curl: 140 - 5x5. This is about the most I have ever done curling. staying as strict as possible
Dips: BW + 90-pounds in plates. 3rd set had a partial tear in my pec and headed to the ER. Unexpected entry on the training log...
