Throw out one set of FSQ and don't do the AMRAP on Deadlifts. This should save my lower back from too much fatigue and give me some time to do some curls, lateral raises and other stuff for my upper body.

Finished the first 6 weeks, did a deload.
Now i run the first 6 weeks again. Add some weight to the dips but the rest is pretty much the same.
Weight is down to 88kg, but my waist size hasn't decreased in the last two weeks, which bothers me Hope that my LBM didn't take a hit.

It's been some time. Bodyweight has been stable. Sadly my lifts also.
Week 12:
Squat 170: 3/3/3/3/5
Pull Up + 20kg: 4/4/4/4.
Pull Up: 8/7
Dips +20kg: 7/7/7/7
RDL 137,5: 7/7/7/9
3 sets curls and LTE

But at least im pleased with my appearance. Did some shots after training with a good pump and good lightning. I would say i am around 13-15% body fat.

Worst period of training so far.
chronology of sucking:
6/15:
1 hour charity run from company. First time running for me after 2 years. I did go all out and run 11km in 1 hour. Heart rate was at 180 most of the time. One day later i had heavy deadlift doubles scheduled. I should have known better and moved them on the next day because i was very very fatigued. But i didn't and hurt my lower back pretty bad. For the next 10 days i only did upper body and some very light movements for the legs.
6/25:
I started becoming sick. Covid tests were negative, but i continued to train half heartly and only upper body.
7/7
Rapid test Covid was positive. Also a PCR test. Three days with "heavy" symptoms. Felt like a strong flue. Next seven days i also felt like shit. Was just lying around sleeping or watching some TV. No training at all. After 10 days of quarantine i also was tested negative again.
20/7:
First time training again. First session was good. Day after that my back started hurting again after some very light squats at 80kg. A sudden pain after the third rep. Never had experienced something before. So after that only upper body again. Thought my back had enough rest after 2 weeks of not moving. I still don't know if i started to quickly or too heavy. So for now again only upper body. I also feel the consequences of the covid infection. My heart rate goes up to 110-120 when walk briskly. Before that i never passed 100. Also my resting heart rate is not as low as it was.
Hope this doesn't last too long.

My Training just sucked the last months.
At least i think i know where my backpain came from. At one point i had the idea that i need to be more upright when deadlifting or squatting. To achieve that i just shifted weight to the back of my feet. Lifts suddenly became harder but i didn't figured out that it was because i didn't pushed too the midfoot anymore. Weeks passed by and my back pain became worse and worse. I realized that it would be a good idea to start focusing on the weight distribuiton of my feet. And surprise suprise, last workout i worked up to a 75% squat and deadlift with no pain at all and the lifts feIt great. I still feel very stupid about that but at least i learned a little bit i think:

1) Training without a conrete regime. I just went in, picked a weight that felt ok and did a bunch of sets of 3-8 reps.
Mostly i did:
A RDL/Incline Press/Chins
B Front squat/Bench/Rows
+ arms/core/single leg work.

2) Stop trying to fix something that works just fine.


Also i decided that i want to start running for cardio. Only stationary bike bores me.
Running twice a week for 35-40 minutes @ max 140 heart rate. This is around 6:30min/km at the moment. We'll see how that improves after 2-3 months. Maybe then i do some more thinking about a routine.

Finished a 10 day all in stay in a resort in turkey. LPed my beer consum. Crazy how fast you get used too drinking several beers a day. Normally i rarely drink at all and get a buzz pretty fast. I gained 2kg though i tried to focus on vegetables and protein, but overall it was just too mich alcohol and food. Trainingwise i tried to do the best with the max of 2x20kg dumbbells in the hotel gym and cardiowise it was some 30-40min runs + ergometer.

Back at home i started another run of AtS2. But now the vanilla version where you do sets till you reach the prescribed RIR.

Week 4 of the original Average to Savage. So lots of easy sets with short rest time. Best thing is looking forward to the workout. Also i get a great pump and have enough energy for accessories at the end.
Also running three times per week and my pace starts to go down. Don't notice any detrinental effect to lifting
