Mark's 5/3/1 and jiu-jistu log

[Mark Edward]

Thanks a lot. Being a daddy is weird.

Computer science. I'm doing some stuff on the problem of localizing the end effector during robotic surgical procedures. Pretty fun stuff.

Nice article the other day, by the way.

Friday 2/27

Bench: 260x5x5
Pullups: 50 total reps or something like that

Monday 3/2

Squat: 470x3x 4 sets, 470x5
Good Morning: 185x10x 3 sets
Farmer's Walk: 350lbs until done

So what I've been doing lately is what Wendler calls Advanced 5/3/1: week 1 is 75%x5x5, week 2 is 85% for 5 triples, and week 3 is 5 singles at 95%. It seems to be effective. I do an overwarmup and I recently decided to try pushing the last set a little and see how it feels.

I like that. I'm gonna keep it in mind for some day. Thanks for spelling it out.
