conventional dl [email protected] 140 kg, [email protected] 150 kg, [email protected] 160 kg , 8 x 140 kg

Deadlifts are feeling strong.

db bench [email protected] 25 kg, [email protected] 27.5 kg, [email protected] 30 kg , 10 x 25 kg

It looks like that my pecs were tired from yesterday since I haven't benched normally in months.

lunges 40 kg x 35 reps in total (10, 10, 10, 5)

Untamed Method (modified)

week 1, day 1

squat [email protected] 100 kg, [email protected] 100 kg, [email protected] 115 kg, 8 x 90 kg

bench [email protected] 70 kg, [email protected] 75 kg, [email protected] 80 kg, 10 x 60 kg

These working weights are not good compared to what I have benched before this injury but now it looks like that my right bec can actually tolerate benching which is very good.

pin press, forehead, myo 40 kg x 12 and my shoulders were done after that activation set

This week I did 80 kg for 5 reps on regular bench for the first time in months. My best set of 5 on bench is 95 kg so only 15 kg to go. This is very promising and it looks like that I am now gaining bench strenght back. Now I think that I am ready to start untamed method type programming again as the first 3 weeks are high reps. Sets of 8-10+ are probably pretty good for my pec right now.

strict press 3 sets of 5 reps x 60 kg

push press [email protected] 80 kg, 3 sets of 5 reps x 70 kg

db bench 29 kg x 8, 31.5 kg x 8, 34 kg x 8

This felt ok in my right pec, good.

[jask558]

block pull, mid-shin [email protected] 150 kg, [email protected] 160 kg, [email protected] 170 kg

close grip floor press 70 kg x 5, 75 kg x 5, 80 kg x 5

Nice, these felt ok again. Now this pec rehab is going well.

lat pulldown 3 sets of 8 reps with 80 kg

This training/rehab week was good, now I can add a bit more chest work.

[jask558]

front squat [email protected] 80 kg, [email protected] 90 kg, [email protected] 100 kg

close grip high incline bench 4 x 5 x 60 [email protected]

This felt ok again, good.

seated db press 25 kg x 3 sets of 8 reps

[jask558]

sumo dl [email protected] 160 kg, [email protected] 170 kg, 4 x 175 kg (grip problems)

strict press 3 sets of 5 reps x 60 [email protected]

neutral grip pull ups 8, 8, 6

These have felt bad in my right pec too but today pull ups felt ok.

[jask558]

Bw was about 86 kg before the gym.

squat [email protected] 120 kg, [email protected]7 122.5 kg, [email protected] 125 kg

Squats have been feeling good recently.

push press [email protected] 70 kg, [email protected] 72.5 kg, [email protected] 75 kg

My technique is improving. 90 kg push press is close and 100 kg is realistic in the future as well.

high incline dp press 3 sets of 8 reps with 30 kg

These felt ok in my right pec, these have felt much worse before. I would call this rehab progress.

[jask558]

Pec rehab: Today I did push ups (chest to ground) for 3 sets of 10. Some discomfort but tolerable.

I have been lifting 4x/week, focusing on deadlifting and overhead pressing.

[jask558]

I decited to do push presses today as it seems like a fun exercise.

push press 1 x 80 [email protected] (hard to judge RPE in a new lift), 70 kg x 4 sets of 3 reps (pretty easy)

This was fun. My technique isn't the best here as I have only strict pressed before so there is room for improvement. 100 kg push press would be a good strenght goal in the future...

pendlay row 5 x 5 x 100 kg

seated db press 8 x 25 kg, 30 kg x 2 sets of 8 [email protected]

press [email protected] 70 kg, 4 sets of 3 x 60 kg

18.1.2022

sumo dl Deadlfts felt very weak today so I didn't use that heavy weights.

1 x 180 kg (surprisingly heavy, I pulled 200 kg last week), 3 x 170 [email protected], 1 x 170 kg???

pin press, chin [email protected] 70 kg, 5 x 60 kg x 3 sets

lat pulldowns 80 kg x 8, 90 kg x 8, 90 kg x 7

19.1.2022

front squat 5 x 80 kg, 5 x 90 kg, [email protected] 100 kg

I tried to floor press and even 60 kg felt like crap in my right pec. Seriously?

2ct paused press @ forehead 5 x 40 kg, 5 x 50 kg, 5 x 50 kg

close grip incline bench I did 50 kg x 8 and that did not feel good. Annoying.

[jask558]

This is my programming idea:

Day 1: squat, press, incline variation

Day 2: deadlift, press variation, light squat variation

Day 3: squat variation, press variation, incline variation

Day 4: deadlift variation, press variation, rows

[jask558]

front squat 80 kg x 5, 90 kg x 5, 100 kg x [email protected] PR

pin press, chin 50 kg x 5, 55 kg x 5, 60 kg [email protected]

Next week I will train 4x/week again.

[jask558]

sumo deadlift [email protected] 200 kg PR, 2 x 3 x 180 [email protected]

Hell yeah.

Today my pecs were sore from yesterday and floor press didn't feel good in my right pec as I only did 80 kg for 1 rep and I racked the bar after that. No idea when I can bench normally again... I have to focus on training for a 80 kg overhead press then.

seated db press 22.5 kg x 8, 25 kg x 8, 30 kg x [email protected]

neutral grip chin ups 3 x 8
