Daniel's Training log

Hi guys!

After lurking SS and BBM forums for a long time I decided to start logging my training just for fun.
I finished the lp 1 year ago with a 155kg 3x5, squat a 170kg 1x5 deadlift, a 100kg 3x5 bench and 65kg 3x5 press.
After that I kinda got bored and started weightlifting at college. It was fun for a while. I received programming from the coach there, but i didn’t make any progress except on the olympic lifts, and not increasing my squat was frustrating.
So here I am, after a 2 week vacation ready to do a lp for 2-3 weeks to regain my numbers. Currently planning to start the bridge after that. Also planning to cut some weight, as i recently measured a 40,5 inches waist.

Current stats: 176cm, 104kg.

Last session: 1. 120kg 5x3 squat
2. 55kg 5x3 press
3. 140kg 5x1 deadlift

Monday 4/2/19

Got sick for a week. As the weights were light, just maintained the squat, deloaded the press a little and increased slightly the deadlift. Went by feel.
The Weights felt light, however, I was out of breath after every set.

  1. 120kg 5x3 squat
  2. 80kg 5x3 bench press
  3. 145kg 5x1 deadlift

Friday 8/2/19

Weight: 102 kg, waist: 40 inches

  1. 125kg 5x3 squat
  2. 55kg 5x3 press

Weight-loss coming along nicely.

Those tempo squats made me feel like shit.

Well, this past two weeks have been pretty turbulent. Dropped the bridge, lost 2kg and some strength.

However, now i have a clearer picture of what i want to do. Im training for the oly nationals next year. Just got the oly template and im ready to go babyyy.
Planning to compete in the 102kg class. Looking for some numbers like 145 clean and jerk and a 110 snatch. My personal best have been a 105 power clean and power jerk and a 85 power snatch.
There is a lot of work to do technique-wise, but im pretty motivated and im sure i can hit those numbers this year.

Current stats: 38.2in waist, 98kg bw, 185kg squat. Clean and jerk: ??? Snatch: ???

Lol, its been a long time since i last posted. Lots of stuff has been happening and just this week i resumed trainin.
Lost 4kg more, currently weighting 94-95kg and with a 36.3 in waist.Max squat is probably around 175.
As i have lost tons of gainzz, i started a novice lp, but instead of doing the deadlift im doing powercleans and powersnatches. Somehow this week i managed to get a poweclean pr of 110kg.

Monday 20/5

Powerclean 98kg 3x5
Squat 135 5x3
OH press 63 5x3
