Day 23

QUOTE
"Every worthwhile accomplishment, big or little, has its stages of drudgery and triumph; a beginning, a struggle and a victory." Ghandi



It was a superb start of the day. I have not tested my max rep for my Front Squats and my RDL. I would prefer testing my max rep on a regular deadlift. This will be my last week for my current routine. I am coming up with a new one soon. I am considering Chad Waterbury`s 25 method.

So this is how it went down today.

Front Squats

80 x 4 x 1
85 x 4 x 3
80 x 4 x 1

Romanian Deadlift.

80 x 8 x 1
90 x 8 x 3

Pull through

20 x 10 x 3

DB reverse lunge

30lb x 12 x 4

Plate Pinch

10k`s on each hand pinching for 25-30 seconds x 3


I must say that the RDL shook the bejeevers out of my core today. Well not forgetting the damn front squats. Ahhh ! Lower body days are just full of shit. lol !

I`ll be doing some plate pinching after every workout just to improve on the grip. I`ll do some towel squeezing at home as well.

Pizza, the bench sounds like a good idea, I subbed it with the DB chest press. And Ive included an arm workout on fridays.

All changes are made in red. What ya guys think?

Considering what jones and pizza replied, I finalized a few stuff. Oh yea, pizza the "conditioning" sounds great, get to sore the muscles a lil bit more. I came up with a superset for the bench to triceps pushdown. I did not include crunch but will probably do them as a supplementary workout.


Also regarding what Jones mentioned on the 3x6 and not the 4x6, I`ll give week 1 a shot and see how it goes. Considering waterbury`s 25 method, he did limit the exercise to 3 workouts only a day which I believe could be applied if I am doing a 3 workout regime.

I am giving this a shot though. see how it works with me. I was pretty skeptical at 1st when looking at the twice a week chest work but I opt to give to give it a shot for a first few weeks to see how it goes.

Day 28


QUOTE
There is no chance, no destiny, no fate, that can hinder or control the firm resolve of a determined soul.- Ella Wheeler Wilcox



Its actually the first day of my RSP, ya ya ya, first day is always easy like a dog piss. My squat max rep is only 100kilos, so today its only 80kilos x 2 reps x 6 sets. I got up from bed, and something I feared most happened, there is no fukkin water supply, I had to bathe at the gym. crap. The Push Press however was fun, but my wrist still felt funny a little, perhaps first day is always a good start.

I do actually have a question, do you do your incline db press on a 45degree incline or a 30degree?

First day figures


Squat

80k x 2r x 6s


Push Press

45k x 4r x 6s

Incline DB Press

35 x 4r x 1s
40 x 4r x 5s

Curl

25k x 6r x 4s

Very nice quote. Make sure you keep the spirit. It's easy to say, hard to keep up. When the days feel like shit, breathe it in and tell yourself, just six bloody sets of sixers. Pizza had to do 10 sets of triples @ 95% of his maxes. If he can, I can. biggrin.gif (Chewah, buat sendiri kecoh sikit!! tongue.gif tongue.gif tongue.gif  Nola just joking)

45LBS push presses for four sets of six? Sounds nice. The burn is normal, you'll feel it definitely at the beginning. It'll be better in a while. But, if the burn still doesn't subside, stretch your wrists, prior to pressing.
*
95% of your squats? How much? thundering motivations are always good for the spirit.

No la, the push press six sets of four, all also six sets of four. I am trying to go for low reps, higher sets. or should i go the other way round? its
45kg, 4x5kg plate,2x2.5kg plate + 1 oly bar = approx 45 kilos.

well low rep high sets is good. very good. but its taxing on CNS. with the Russian squat routine i wouldn't recommend pairing high sets low rep with high set low rep of accesory exercise.

consider squat is the major exercise in ur routine, every other is accesorries.. chest or back or anything. save ur cns and complete the routine. then write your own program of high set low rep.
*
So, ya saying that, the other exercise should be on eg ; 6 reps x 4 sets or 8 reps x 3 sets?

yo, jones, thanks for the info there.


Okay, so I have not posted my meals for quite sometime. Most of them are home made stuff. *i know imma cheap d****


Meal 1 : Cottage cheese + 1 serving of oats + 1/2 cup choc protein + 3 eggs = PANCAKE rclxms.gif

Meal 2 : 3 medium sized chicken legs ( drumstick+thigh ) + 2 cups of fresh milk

Meal 3 : 1 cup of brown rice cooked in chicken broth + basil + garlic , sweet potatoe + chicken + french beans + gravy *homemade stuff, I`m a fitness chef wannabe* This is usually post workout

Meal 4 : 1 can of tuna in oil , 2tbsp of peanut butter, 1 tbsp of lite mayo

Meal 5 : 4 slices of bread + 2 small bananas + 2 tbsp of Peanut butter*the PB is giving me those body acne and facial acnes ! lol !*

Meal 6 : 1 cup of milk * i know milk before bed is bad biggrin.gif * + 1 serving of plain yogurt + 1 serving of whey *blend it up into a bed time smoothie which makes your hips big tongue.gif*


This gives me a bout 250g protein, 120g of carbs and approx 80-90g of fat = approx 3000calories.

Day 30.

QUOTE
Success seems to be largely a matter of hanging on after others have let go - William Feather


I made some changes on my routines from 4x6 to 5x5. I felt so uneasy doing the squats, my there is something bulging out my neck where i rest the bar, so I had to use the squat pad. Yeah, I wanted to sound tough but it turned out the other way.

I made some sweet+sour chicken + brocs and carrots + brown rice which was a wonderful post workout meal. I am also actually pretty incompetent when it comes to ingredient shopping so I did ring up a friend to get some good deals. *told ya im a wannabe biggrin.gif*. I also made some chocolate chewy oat cookies credits to matthor from youtube.com. It was delicious, good stuff.


This is how it went down today

Squat

80kg x 3reps x 6sets

Barbell Row

60kg x5x5

Lat Pulldown

50 x 5 x 4
55 x 5 x 1

Back extension

8x4
