I'D RATHER BE DEADLIFTING
New member
Since I don't have a catchy name for mine, and B took Dungeon, I'll just call it my home gym for now. These are some of the numbers I have hit on the exercises I will be usng for ME when we start up full-blown Westside after my meet which is June 15th. I'll post the numbers that my training partner has too, when he gives them to me.
weights listed are mostly singles, but sometimes a double or triple. I am just listing the weights because who knows if a double at one weight is better than a single at 5-10 lbs heavier.
I am 5'7" and weigh around 148-150
ME squat/dl:
Suspended arched backs(44")- 385
Arched backs- 315
BO goodmornings- 260
Zerchers- 335
Reverse band deads(135 at bottom, no help last 3-4")- 455*
deads off chains(plates 4" off ground)- 455
That workout jumped right to 495 and got it just over my knees.
ME bench:
2-board press- 225
3-board press- 230
4-board press- 240
Floor press- 220
Reverse band press(greens)- 275
Close grip lockouts(4.5")- 315
Close grip bench- 205
My board presses are all relatively close in strength. All boards and floors are done with a grip inbetween my close and wide grips. Floors are with legs straight. Reverse band press is with pinky on the ring.
There are a few more lifts on my ME squat/dl list, but I have not done them yet so I have no numbers.
Any imbalances that seem to stick out?
