ohjoshua 63 Report post Posted June 15 Wednesday 15/06/2022 Bench press 100kg*5 120kg*2 130kg*2 140kg*1 145kg*2*3 (second set spotter touched the bar, I think 1 set of 145kg*3 is a PB) Close grip bench 90kg*2*12 DB rear raises / rows 17kg*12,15,15 Cable rows 50kg*12,15 low bar Squats (trying to focus on hips not shooting up and staying more upright) 100kg*3*10 Leg press 110kg*12,12,15 Prone hold bw*45sec 20kg*2*45sec Note: end of the program because I could not hit the 3*3 at 145kg on bench. I have been grinding the last few sessions so keen to start a new program with some lighter weights and higher reps. I will look to start tomorrow or Friday. 1 gazza reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gazza 109 Report post Posted June 15 Crushing that bench press fella, nice work. I've been benching 3x a week in an attempt to boost it to something I'm happy with and also because I can't train lower body beyond the physiotherapist recommendations lol. Each session is % based off a calculated 1RM max. 6 week program ends this week, deload a little next week and then I'm planning to actually test my 1RM.

gazza 109 Report post Posted June 17 Hey fella, this is the bench program I've been doing. I just Googled programs until I found one I like the look of and printed it off. If put the title into the search bar it'll bring it up. I altered the accessories slightly to accommodate the gear I had and my niggles. I found one on T-nation that looked good too, which I might try but it's 4 days a week. 1 ohjoshua reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PM 2nd session Squats 100kg*3*15 Leg press 120kg*3*15 Standing calf raises 50kg*3*15 Bike 15min Note: I was really warn out after the bench stuff, so I called it and went home. I came back about 4 hours later to finish the squats. All of it was really hard, chest burning in bench, legs burning on squats and leg press. I am a bit tired and more hungry. Still losing weight, but tempted to have an extra meal today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
