J2K - Training Log

[J. Killmond]

It will be a few more weeks before they open (Thanksgiving - first week of December, maybe). I don't count on anything before the New Year, so I can still tilt towards lifting. It may be a stretch, but perhaps...

As it turns out, 1000 pound Club wasn't much of a stretch! Bill got 1055 lbs. during the week of December 11.

I'm going to finish out my little 5-week "sub-maximal" training cycle experiment, and then see what I think and whether I'm ready to take a shot at the "Lifting to Live - Mock Meet(tm)"

BP: 205x5x3
DL: 380x1

Not too bad, not too taxing. I think I'm going to feel good at the end of this 5-week "sub-maximal" cycle

You've got nothing to lose by trying!

Spreading the lifts out over the 4/5 days is a huge boost, too. Even with significant PRs in each of the lifts, I didn't feel like I was completely thrashed by week's end.
