Weight
First black line is lockdown, where I just ate whatever. I was then forced to cut before reaching the 2nd line, which was the 2k race. I then ate whatever until the third line, where I looked fat and am cutting again. I think I look okay now, but will probably eat at maintenance/slight deficit, until I don't make strength gains. I'll then increase my calories. It's pretty crazy how much of a difference 2kg makes on my current frame. Perhaps it is mental and I always look the same. I do think I want to be at 77ish at the end of 14-17 weeks of this program, so that I can make some proper gains.
ATS2
This will be a whole lot of nonsense if you're not familiar with ATS, but I thought I would write it down so I can come back to it later.
Day 1:
Squat - TM 127.5 - Last set RIR
OHP - TM 62.5 - Reps to failure
Power Snatch - TM 57.5 - Last set RIR, but modified to have 1 fewer rep per set
Weighted Pullups - Set increase then rep increase, 3-4 sets, 4-6 reps
Day 2:
Bench Press - TM 77.5 - Reps to failure
Front Squat - TM 100 - hypertrophy (low TM because the template is brutal), aux lift
Power Clean - TM 85 - Last set RIR, but modified to have 1 fewer rep per set
Pull ups - Rep increase, 3-5 sets, will start at 7 reps
Day 3:
Deadlift - TM 145 - Last set RIR, with only 3 sets and smaller TM increases because **** deadlifts
Incline Bench - TM 70 - hypertrophy, low TM, aux lift
Paused Squat - TM 120 - Last set RIR, aux lift
