    - log press:
    2 x 3 x 45 kg
    2 x 55 kg
    1 x 65 kg
    1 x 70 kg
    7 x 1 x 75 kg

    This is becoming a comfortable weight for me. I attempted log cleans with 85 kg, but managed only one because I was too tired.

    - Swiss bar bench:
    6 x 22.5 kg
    3 x 42.5 kg
    5 x 10 x 55 kg

    Enough pressing volume for the day.

    - meddley:
    50 kg keg x 20 m
    75 kg sandbag x 20 kg
    backwards drag 10 lbs x 20 m

    Four rounds. Wasn't as bad as I feared it would be. Actually it was easy. My quads did get pumped by round three.

    Started Anthony Fuhrman's deadlift program. I hope my lower back will alow it. W1D1

    - goodmorning:
    3 x 62.5 kg
    3 x 72.5 kg
    3 x 82.5 kg
    3 x 92.5 kg
    3 x 102.5 kg

    Lower back was really unhappy. I felt these mostly in my abs.

    - 2" block pull:
    3 x 120 kg
    6 x 3 x 140 kg

    Lower back still wasn't really happy.

    - db SLDL:
    4 x 12 x 25 kg

    GS 1. Good lower back pump.

    - snatch-grip Pendlay row:
    5 x 6 x 60 kg

    They felt odd, but they seemed to hit my mid-back.

    - reverse-hypers:
    4 x 25

    GS 2. Put my shaky bench on a barrel on one side and a shaky chair with plates on the other. Tied a red band around the yoke and used it as a swing. Pretty awkward but good on my back.

    - lying leg raises:
    5 x 15

    GS 2. Here was loud clicking in my right hip, but it stopped by the end of the last set. My abs and lower back felt better after these.

    - farmer's walk:
    4 x 20 m x 65 kg

    Not on the program. I did four sets because I was tired from the deadlift training. Speed was really good.

    - ab wheel:
    6
    5
    5

    The program says 5x10 but my abs were really tired. Maybe I'll skip these entirely.

    - Swiss bar row:
    5 x 8 x 52.5 kg

    GS 1. My lower back feels good.

    - seated reverse band press:
    4 x 30 kg
    3 x 40 kg
    5 x 8 x 50 kg

    GS 1. Felt them in my shoulders. Done with a straigh bar and they didn't bother my elbow.

    - sandbag walk in place:
    2 x 60 s x 75 kg

    Felt them mostly in my glutes, medium & minimus.

    1 x 70 kg
    1 x 72.5 kg
    4 x 3 x 67.5 kg

    Started doing singles instead of triples. Sleeves add about 5 kg to my press. My abs were pretty sore after this.

    3 x 42.5 kg
    5 x 10 x 52.5 kg

    - SSB goodmorning:
    6 x 22.5 kg
    3 x 62.5 kg
    3 x 72.5 kg
    3 x 82.5 kg
    3 x 92.5 kg
    3 x 102.5 kg

    My lower back was pain free! I don't think these are a good warmup for the deadlift.

    - 2" deficit deadlift:
    4 x 100 kg
    2 x 120 kg
    5 x 2 x 140 kg

    Beltless and still pain free. The pain seems to be a combination of weak lower abs, weak low back and tight hamstrings.

    - 13" snatch-grip deadlift:
    6 x 140 kg
    2 x 6 x 130 kg

    These were a murder on my glute-ham tie-in and lower back. I had to lower the weight. This one is a keeper.

    - snatch-grip Pendlay row:
    3 x 6 x 60 kg
    2 x 6 x 65 kg

    - farmer's walk:
    2 x 20 m x 65 kg
    2 x 20 m x 70 kg

    Speed was really good.

    - reverse hypers:
    4 x 25

    GS 1. Green band.

    - lying leg raises:
    5 x 15

    GS 1.

    Skipped ab wheel

    - step-up:
    3 x 8 x 42.5 kg

    GS 1. I wanted 60 kg but it was too much. I'll try 50 the next time.

    - db row:
    6 x 25 kg
    6 x 30 kg
    3 x 6 x 35 kg

    GS 1. Low reps don't seem to do much for me.

    - goodmorning off pins:
    5 x 15 x 52.5 kg

    GS 2. Good exercise.

    - seated hip abduction:
    4 x 25

    GS 2. Green band. It should have been 5 x 20.

    - single leg deadlift:
    4 x 12 x 20 kg

    GS 3. Tough and low back pump was nasty. I think I need more of these.

    - BSS:
    4 x 12

    GS 3.

    - neutral chin-up:
    5 x 10

    My shoulder mobiliy is poor. At least my elbow didn't hurt.

    - yoke run:
    2 x 12 m x 100 kg
    6 x 12 m x 140 kg

    Beltless. It took me a bit to get used to the weight, but once I did the speed was excellent. Even more important, there was no low back pain!

    - log press:
    2 x 3 x 45 kg
    2 x 55 kg

    1 + 1 x 72.5 kg
    2 x 72.5 kg
    1 x 72.5 kg
    2 x 70 kg

    My back was tired from yesterdays training so I cut this short. I think I will put pressing days before deadlifting days.

    - Swiss bar bench:
    6 x 22.5 kg
    3 x 42.5 kg
    5 x 10 x 55 kg

    Tough.

    10 x 5 kg
    20 x 5 kg

    - reverse fly:
    2 x 20 x 5 kg
