Aidan's Training Log (just weak strongman) - Page 169

4th January:

Squat: 80x5x4
Bench Press: 75x5x3, x10
Deadlift: 100x5x4
Chins: 4 sets

Decent, still got the big hotspots in my calf that make the last few inches of squats annoying. Trying to really concentrate on even pushing with both feet still. Others feeling ok.

I know you're coming back after a layoff, but seeing squat=bench just weirds me out.

Yeah, still trying to work out why something in my calf hurts in the bottom quarter of the squat. It's only sore when my leg is that bent, gives me no issues otherwise. Need to get it sorted and the movement feeling a bit crisper before pushing too high.

Press: 40x5x3
Lat Pulldown, Facepulls

Great few days on holiday - not much of a break, but really nice to get out and do lots of things with the little one. Did slip on some rocks and cut my hand a little bit, so went with high bar squats. Calf is feeling a little bit better which is nice. Or i could just join the walks and floor lambic club.

Aidan,

I believe that club requires multiple sauna sessions per week as well.

Can't you just hire a giant spider as a nanny?

No lie, walking away just now while I heard her crying was one of the hardest things I've done.

That's not how it works: they tell you when you're nannying their babies.

Squat: 110x5x3

Lat Pulldown, Shoulder Press

Calf was a bit sore today for these squats, trying both high and low bar. Pushed through it. Getting to the end of bench LP, these were tough by rep 5. Pretty happy to stay on track through the month though.

Relatively quick one again tonight. Lifted with some buddies who wanted some pointers, which was fun. Will join them each week now, so hopefully some more motivation. DOMS was quite bad today.
