Shadow's Snap back to reality.....

Still, all are very respectable lifts with nowhere to go but up.

I never fail at lockout either, I always get pasted right off the floor when I miss....I wouldn't even begin to consider 'weak areas' as you'll obviously have an adjustment/reconditioning period.

Good luck.

Heh, after 40 reps (even at sub-maximal weights) in your first deadlift workout in more than a year, I'm surprised you got the .5.

I'll be following along, of course. What rep/set ranges will you be using for your main and assistance lifts on each day?

Once I get the kinks out....its a modified one day per week with some strength movements...

Assistance for deads will be pull throughs....rack pulls - usual pling stuff


Bench wil be speed work - board presses and floor presses


Legs - Squats of course....box squats - some speed reps - high steps


Im looking at having one "strength" movement per w/o even though Im on a body part per day.....need to see where my core weaknesses are

Good to see you running a journal! Strong showing coming out of a lengthy lay-off. Report tomorrow how the lower back & glutes feel tomorrow after your first dead session in a while. LoL

 

[The Shadow]

Yeaahhh...


LOL

I dont EVEN wanna know

Good luck bro - take it slow and stay injury free.

So, how sore were you after the chest workout? After a layoff like that I would be to sore to move.

 

[Tweakle]

those aren't bad poundages at all for a 12 month layoff, I'd have been struggling with the bar after that much time off.

on the plus side, at least there's no chance you're overtrained those #'s are gonna skyrocket over the next month or so

the soreness will go and you'll be pounding some crazy numbers pretty soon

 

[BUBBLES]

good luck

how much cardio do you plan on doing per week initially?

 

[The Shadow]

none.....the workouts themselves are killing me
