Month 2, Day 1 - Squatting

July 9, 2012

Well today's the kick off for month 2 under coach Phil. I wish the weather was a little more cooperative, it's stinking 40'C/104'F according to the humidex and going up. Big time suckage seeings as I'm a guy that finds 22'C getting a little hot lol.

Noon
1a) Squat
45 x 5, 5
135 x 5
225 x 3
315 x 1
Belt
365 x 1
400 x 1, 1, 1 - Got started late. I was also pouring sweat just with the 45. Suckage!

1b) 2" FBBC Crusher
High Row
55 x 10
80 x 5
105 x 5
130 x 3
Deadlift
140 x 1
150 x 1, 1, 1
120 x 15/15

Before Supper
1a) Pause Squat - 3 Seconds on the bottom
135 x 1, 1
225 x 1
275 x 3, 3, 3, 3, 2 - I was going for 20. I think it might be best to stick at this weight until I get my reps. Double check with Phil. My hips are coming up to fast as well.

1b) Chins
BW x 3, 3, 4, 3, 3, 2 - Hard to find room on my rack for these. I may need to think up a solution.

2) SSB GM's
245 x 6, 5, 5

3) Phil's Simply Horrible Little Complex - Pushup/Situp/Lunge - 5 Minutes
BW x 13 - Took it easy and steady. I'll look at pushing it in the weeks to come. The toughest part of this for me being a fat bastard is actually the transitions and not so much the actual exercises.

Another thing I've been playing with is Carb Backloading and it seems to have kicked my fat loss in gear again. I'm eating a ton, plus lots of cookies, pizza and crap on my loads and I've been dropping a pound or two a week again. I think it must have something to do with my hormone regulation and such.
