Im still alive and guess what, im lifting...
I feel very sory for the long pause in this log, but i had some things to deal with, and time went by really fast, so im looking forward to do some little updates once in a while about my progression with the sheiko programms!
Heres a little recap of the last year:
I did a break from training for about 3 months from february to april because we bought a new flat and i had to renovate just everything and the timeline was very stressfull because i quit my job at the same time and began a new one in april.
In short: I lost some strength over these months and the new job is more stressfulll then the other, so my recovery is not the best.
Tested my 1rm in all 3 lifts i think in april.
Went thisway, squat 160kg
Bench 105 kg
Deadlift 160kg Conventionel
Used the sheiko beginner program to get back and used to training with the above numbers.
Finished it with this comeback PRs:
Squat 175
Bench 110
Deadlift 180
With this numbers in mind, i began the intermediate small load programm which had a skill test the last week (small load preperation 2, week 2), and went thisway:
Squat 182,5 kg, 104%, all time pr
Bench didnt go over 105kg 95%, had a really bad and taxing day
Deadlift failed 180 kg 100%, because of technice, just a bad day, had a cat back straight from the warm up...
Since i do not pull sumo anymore, my groin doesnt hurt anymore and im using a wider stance for squating, which feels very good.
My bench sucks a lot since im trying to do everything perfekt like, shoulderplates back and down, pushing myself away from the bar not the bar away from me, using leg drive and not laying my butt on the bench to loose tension, squeezing the lats,...
100 kg for bench press feels very hard at the moment
Deadlifts are like talking to women, one week they are super nice, the other they dont put an eye on you...
I think im not reacting very good in doing 2 different types of deadlifts instead of the deadlift itself, like deficit DL with 130kg which feels very light, and after benchpress rack pulls from under the knees, what feels very heavy mostly (145-170kg )
And what really gets me angry is, something is hurting my sacrum, or at least the erea of the sacrum, which is effecting all lifts...
Thats it, stay tuned !
