    2nd Cycle - Week One reps/sets

    Warm Up: Airdyne 8 minutes, Back Ext 20*3, Left Leg Ext 60kg 8*3 (5ct Eccentric), Step Up/Down (5ct eccentric) 24" box 8*3

    Squat - 100kg 8*3

    Deficit Deads - 135kg 5*3

    Dumbbell Fly - 35/40/45lbs *10
    Hamstring Curls / Leg Extensions (l/r) - bw / 50kg 25*3
    Hammer Curls 3-0-3 tempo - 30lbs 5*5
    Tri Pulldown 3-0-3 tempo - # 10 5*5
    Dead Bugs - 60sec *3

    Just a great session. Everything at the correct RPE of 7. Finishes as good a week of training as I can remember.

    My last Squat set was as good a set from start to finish as I've ever put together: in balance, good bar path, effortless.

    Haven't done Deficit Deads in a long time...boy is that bar a long way down there. Especially so as we've been doing Big Wheel Pulls for the last few cycles.

    Blew up the arms and legs to end the session. Tempo work was eye opening...feel the burn!

    2nd Cycle - Week Two reps/sets

    Squat Single - 70kg 5*3, 100kg 3*3, 115kg 3*2, 125kg *2, 135 / 145kg *1
    SSB - 107.5kg *5
    SSB - 977.5kg 5*2
    In Place Lunges - 16kg 10*3
    Dumbbell Mid Row - 70lbs 8*4
    Dumbbell Revs Fly - 40lbs 8*4
    Leg Exts - 55kg 20*8
    Hamstring Curls - bw 20*3
    Hammer Curls - 80lbs 8*3

    135 moved so easily that coach called for an additional single at 145kg. Wasn't fully prepared for that, and it might have been a tad high, but it moved easily.

    Continue to do my regular warm-up, as well as the leg extensions. My knee(s) feels much better for the attention to the Quad work...who knew?!?!

    Hoping to get lucky tonight and be one of the fortunate few who get to go to Raw Natls...as long as my internet connection doesn't shit the bed!!!

    2nd Cycle - Week Two reps/sets

    Normal Warm-Up: Airdyne, leg work, band pull aparts...

    Bench - 50kg 5*3, 60kg 3*3, 70kg 3*2, 80kg 2*2, 87.5kg *1
    Bench - 77.5kg *5
    Bench - 72.5kg 5*2
    Close Grip - 62.5kg 10*3

    Dumbbell Incline - 60lbs *6, *6, *7
    Dumbbell Press - 40lbs 12*3

    Hammer Curls - 50lbs 20*6
    Leg Extensions - 60kg 20*5

    Bar moved slowly, but I felt well in control of each rep.

    A little ambitious with the Incline Bench at 60lbs...if we had 55's it would have worked.

    Supers setted the Dips and Curls...

    Oh, I forgot...I'm going to Natls in June. LET'S DO THIS!!!
