Category Archives: Training Log

Past week ended mixed. I pretty much told my partners I would not be returning after an upcoming mobilization. I was dealing a lot with disappointment and resentment. I know I need to make a change for not only professional growth, passion and to provide the care that I want to, but most importantly toContinue reading “Training Log 11.20.22”

Training: This week was fine from a training perspective. Squat 465×3, 435×4, 410×11. Bench 305×5, 295×4, 275×11. Deads 535×2,1,1. OHP 185×3, 175×4, 165×15. The weight was moving fine. Deads I didn’t hit last week given I trained BJJ then had other obligations on Sunday. I feel like I need at least the weekly movement toContinue reading “Training Log 11.13.22”

Training: Odd week. On the bench day I did a longer run than normal and flared up my SI joint. Took the deadlift/OHP day off and just did a ruck march on that day to get some active recovery and felt fine after that session. The squat day was 435×5, 410×5, 385×17. Bench day wasContinue reading “Training Log 11.6.22”

Training: This past week was week 9 of Average to Savage 1.0. I think when I’m done with this I’ll just re-run the same program. I need to be more mindful about how to get my running in as I continue to feel like I’m doing the bare minimum. I also think I need toContinue reading “Training 10.30.22”

Training: This past week was a mess. Was on week 8 of average to savage 1.0 which was a testing week. The week prior had great sessions. We were house sitting and didn’t have normal equipment at the home gym. The squats I used a transformer bar on a high setting and worked up toContinue reading “Training Log 10.25.22”

Training: Finished the first block of Average to Savage 1.0. I’m glad I’m back on this program. The first four weeks always feel good and it’s just nice to hit different rep ranges. The above 20 rep sets are certainly something I only get into a couple times a year. This was the rep testing weekContinue reading “Training Log 9.25.22”

Training: Just finished week 3 of average to savage 1.0. I went back to this program because my training felt stagnant. I was doing the movement, but not following any sort of periodization. At this time of life I feel like I was just getting the minimum in, because I’m short on time. It wasn’tContinue reading “Training Log 9.18.22”

Training:  Past couple weeks have been consistent, but getting shorter times in the gym. Wifes been on nights and stress at work has been high. I’ve been hitting fewer sets and I feel like it’s time to get back on a regular program. The volume just hasn’t been there. Sets this past week were 405×10Continue reading “Training 8.28.22”

Training:  Have continued with a somewhat operator template for the lifting. Tu – Squat, bench, WPU. Th – Front squat, Incline, Cleans. Sun – Deads, KB OHP, and now belt squats. I switched the belt squat for leg press as I felt like I was stressing my back too much. I’ve considered doing 5RM, bandContinue reading “Training 7.31.22”

Training July 23, 2022 Training:  Things have been going well. Been following the tactical barbell. This week was a deload and just did 5 sets of 2 on everything. Tu – Squat, Bench, WPU. Thursday – Front Squat, Incline, Clean. Saturday – Deads, OHP, Leg press. I felt like I needed a deload and IContinue reading “Training 7.24.22”
