Koalala getting strong for rugby season

[Koalala]

2x5 95kg squat

3x5 62 press

1x 72.5kg 4x3 60kg powerclean : Bar just would not rack, trained pretty early today and the fact that I was yawning between my sets was a sure indication that my CNS was not quite awake yet.

Squats felt ok but the press was not so straight this time.

Good training after having not so good sleep.

3x5 120kg squat : not amazingly hard.

3x5 80kg bench :defnitely lacking upperbody strength.

1x5 145kg Deadlift.

Form check

Feedback greatly appreciated.

3x5 122kg squat: Real fucking grind had to take 20 min breaks to get all reps.

2x5 63kg press
1x3 63kg press : I was fatigued I could have had this.

1x75kg... No point in contineuning.

Squats were incredibly hard and I am thinking about intermediate programming for squats.
Food and sleep was good so there's nothing to blame there.


Any thoughts on this?

Might've just been a shitty day. Wait till Monday to see what happens with your squat and press. And if you're tired for a workout, get some caffeine in you. Works wonders.

[Koalala]

Will do

I might add that technique was slight better chest arched hard and did not change my gaze position.
At the press I was getting annoyed with the fact that the squats took so long ---> too little rest.

At 3x5 130kg I surely have reached my first goal 150kg squat, no?

[Koalala]

I was thinking of signing up for a meet.
I might not be my main interest to be a powerlifter but it will definitely give a boost to my training.

2x5 98kg Squat

3x5 81kg Bench press: Felt good

1x3 147.5 Deadlift got slightly distracted.
1x3 147.5 kg to make up for the lost 2 reps.

[Koalala]

3/2/1 124kg squat suckage slept badly and did not have the groove.

5x 63kgPress
3x 63kg Press wtf?
5x 63kg Press
4x 63kg Press

Consider that as 3x5 63kg press

72.5 kg still struggeling to get all of my reps. will video them asap.

my bw is 105kg atm and thats probably why it feels so sucky that I am stuck at 124kg right now :<.

Dropping Oat meal and nuts from diet which seem to be huge sources of carbs.
Also dropping some bread.

Still maintaining large amount of protein with the 2 liter skim milk and chicken meat.

Goal is to maintain weight though getting stronger.

3/2/1 124kg squat : unfortunately

3x5 82kg bench press

2x150DL was super carefull because my back was slightly iritated. Felt good think I could have made 5 decent reps will definitely do so next time.

I am disapointed that I am already stalling at 124kg.
I think I should atleast make 3x5 300lbs. before going on weekly progression.


Maybe my diet is not in check?
Maybe I did not deload enough when I was squatting 115kg high (it looked more like a roundback GM) I deloaded to 3x5 90kg took 2.5kg jumps til 100kg.
Then added 1kg per workout.

I hate being a pussy and not making progress I am obviously blaming myself and not the programm.

Thinking about a deload but feedback how much would be greatly appreciated.

Fuck the deload IMO. Dude you are a fucking giant. BUT, 196cm and 105...Honestly, that's a bit light for your height. Fix your sleep and drink 1 GOMAD before you do weeky progression. 2 litres is 2 little!. That in itself will drive you to 300lb plus I reckon. Also, is all this running affecting your squats? Try remove it a week see what happens? How many resets you got so far. Once you get to 120-125kg in <6 or so months you will dominate rugby. Second rower right?
