Week 3 (PB Week)

Speed Deadlifts

5 @ 70kg
5 @ 120kg
3 @ 170kg

Really explosive positive. Felt good.

Deadlifts

1 @ 220kg PB - This wasn't clean, but I got it up. Lockout needs work.
1 @ 220kg - Same prob as previous rep. Hitched it on the thighs.

1 @ 200kg - 3 sec hold at top
3 @ 170kg - 3 sec hold at top
3 @ 180kg - 3 sec hold at top

Hammer Grip Pullups
5 @ BW - from full stretch, with pause at the bottom. Didn't want to push shoulder too much so left it there.

Close Grip Decline Bench
Index finger on middle Olly bar knurl. All flat benchs were taken.

15 @ 40kg
10 @ 60kg
3 x 3 @ 80kg PB
Fail @ 100kg

To say I'd smashed triceps on Saturday, and the shoulder is still recovering I was pleased as I've struggled with GC Bench for a while.

Tried 100kg on Decline bench but started feeling it in the Medial Delt so left it.

Stretching + Cardio

Deadlift Lockout needs work. I'm thinking it partially lower back, partially hip drive. I've been given an exercise for this, but forgot what it was...

Tempted to extend the training cycle out to 4 weeks, with week 5 off.
