Re: Powerlifter Roll Call

One week I do heavy singles and doubles, then the next week I do either speed work (8-12 sets of 2 as fast as possible) or low weight/high volume (6-8 sets of 10-20 reps). Kind of a modified Westside. Then every third week I do a 75% test. I take my current 1RM and do 75% of that for as many reps as possible. I keep track and see how it improves. Gives you two separate PRs to look forward to that way. I also do this system with my OHP, bench and deathlift.

Re: Powerlifter Roll Call

yo...
ive done some meets here in CA... won overall best lifter here at home in modesto once, full meet raw USPA and a DL only best lifter here in modesto...
made the deadlift only at the olympia last year, i went but wasnt ready and did shitttttttyyyyyy but thats ok... been workin on things this year and im about ready to get back on the platform this october... either the USPA san jose or san luis obispo meet... im looking at 1200@148 raw, which i believe should qualify me for the la fit expo in jan. 2013 which will now be for RAW lifters
my bench fucking suck though... looking to hit around 475/230/500+ , then maybe 1300ish for the expo if i can stay consistent... juggling a family and work so its easy to get overwhelmed at times....
CHALK AND HATE!!!

Re: Powerlifter Roll Call

Re: Powerlifter Roll Call

welcome mugzy. how is the new routine working for you bruiser?

Hit and miss. Had a lot of shit going on as of late so I'm just playing it by ear. Making some great gains. Deathlift and bench are both up 5-10 lbs. And my body weight is down to 220.
