Before we get started I need to give credit where credit is due. Our very own Chris Roth had an outstanding meet in Chicago and broke a weight class record in dead lift at 320 kilos if I remember correctly. Big ups to Chris, it's a real testament to how hard he works but more importantly how knowledgeable and persistent he is with his training. Please do not hesitate to get in contact with him if you'd like to get your own superhuman strength!
As for my own training, it is coming along quite nicely here is what the numbers looked like:
Squat: 5x8 @215lbs 10lb increase from my last back squat workout.
Standing dumbbell press: 45lbs 5x8 using a slow rep protocol
Underhand chinup: 5x10 using slow reps
Single Leg Squat: Onto bench with 25lb dumbbell at shoulder 5x5 each leg
TRX push up: 5x25,20,20,20,18
My squats have been increasing quite nicely, overall a 10lb increase for 8 reps would be 80lbs a set, times 5 sets = 400lbs increased total weight lifted. I would consider that a good increase in work capacity.
The presses have gotten better too, last time I used 40's.
Workout time went well, it was a 27 min workout.
That's all for this addition, stay tuned for more updates!
