HustlingHat93's training log
Welcome to my training log!
With gym's re-opening again tomorrow (in the UK) after months of no training I thought it would be best to use the internet for good and create an online log to keep myself accountable and also get office when I stall and need input.
I have been lifting weights on and off for the past 10 years but honestly must of that time has been a complete waste... Time spent eating LOW LOW calories to stay at a certain weight (I use to be an amature boxer with same day weigh ins), high volume workouts and just spinning my wheels.
Currently I am training MMA ( Love It!) and strength/ performance gains are my main goal (as opposed to focusing on mass gain) but I have a much better relationship with food and now I am actively looking to gain weight.
Also worth adding over the last couple of months during lockdown due to lack of equipment I have focused A LOT on cardio (sprints, long runs), bodyweight circuits etc with a goal of having my base cardio sorted and once gyms re-open I can focus on gaining strength and technical work without worrying about this.
Basic info about me:
Age: 28
Weight: 123lb as of this morning ( I did say I focused a lot on cardio!)
Deadlift before lockdown: 150kg/330lb
Squat before lockdown: 130kg/ 286lb
Bench before lockdown: 80kg/ 176lb
The Plan:
I will be running Juggernaut method by Chad Wesley Smith as I feel a programme designed to go with an athletes sport training would be best suited to fit in with my MMA training, I enjoyed running it before lockdown and also the progression scheme will let me progress at a good rate once I get into the grove again. Will be using roughly 85% of my last max for the programme and main accessory work will be using 5/3/1 % (except no Max rep at last set)

Another day another workout!
Bench 10 waves Accumulation week
4x10 and 1x 12 with 42.5kg/ 93lbs
Disappointed with the MR set as when I saw the weight I needed to hit I expected to get more. However, new gym means new benches and these benches are ridiculously low so need to work on technique. Non the less no reps missed so can't complain
3x5 Close Grip Bench Press
10x5 Barbell Rows
5x4 Weighted pull ups
4x6 Incline DB Press
3x seated shoulder press
3x super set of neutral grip pull ups and T-bar row machine
3 bicep curls
3x Rolling DB extensions

The 10's are grueling on that program, but you will get through it.

Bench 10 waves Intensification week
The prescribed warm up sets + 2x10 and 1x 11 with 47.5kg/ 105lbs
3x5 Close Grip Bench Press
10x5 Barbell Rows
5x4 Weighted pull ups
4x6 Incline DB Press
3x seated shoulder press
3x super set of neutral grip pull ups and T-bar row machine
3 bicep curls
3x Rolling DB extensions
Really disappointed with my MR set. I feel like I'm not recovering enough due to lack of sleep. Work is being a ***** at the moment and have to do a decent amount out of hours, add MMA training to that and I average about 4 hours of sleep a night at the moment

Deadlifts 8 waves Intensification week
The prescribed warm up sets + 2x8 and 1x 10 with 102.5kg/ 226lbs
Deficit Deadlifts
3x 80kg/176lbs
3x 90kg/ 198lb
3x 100kg/220lb
Pause squats
3x4 ( 5 second pause) with 75kg/ 165lb
3x Good mornings
I also did bicep curls during the rest period of pause squats and also did 10 sets of rows. I feel like the volume i'm getting on accessory muscles is lacking so going to try and fit them in like so.
