Friday and Saturday are going to be ~16 hour days, so I have to squeeze two training sessions and a GPP session in over today and tomorrow. So I did upper back and half of my cardio after today’s session, I will do abs and the other half of cardio after tomorrow’s session, and I’ll do Saturday’s GPP/Cardio session on Sunday. Back on schedule Monday. Just make it fit.

Low stress week complete. Next week i’ll start another five week development block that will be similar to the last block (press focus). This coming block should be better since I won’t be going out of town at all, I won’t have the insane Saturday HIIT sessions (tomorrow is the last one), and I’ll be in my own gym. For this past block, the wheels started falling off during week five despite really good progress the first four weeks. I’m not sure if this is due to one of the confounding variables mentioned above, or if four weeks was the right block length and five was too many (TTP, and all). I’ll be thinking about this during the next block.

Last day for the SWAT Challenge HIIT workouts @ Hard HIIT. The Challenge is next weekend. These were fun, but I’m glad they’re done. I’m not really convinced that they were bad for my strength goals, but I know they weren’t good for them. One positive out of them is that it really drove home the utility of being strong and having a baseline level of conditioning and work capacity. I never had any trouble finishing the workouts, and was usually in the “front of the pack”, so to speak.

HIIT Session @ Hard HIIT in Town. I’ve been doing these every Saturday to help get the word out for the SWAT Challenge our team holds in May. They are particularly brutal, but they haven’t affected my training at all. I’m actually going to log today’s because I remembered to do so, lol.

Pure hell. But it’s a fun way for myself and other SWAT team members to interact with the public.

Training Log 03/17/19 – 03/23/19

I’m going to spend the next twelve weeks focusing on developing my strength in the low bar squat, the standing press, and the sumo deadlift. I’ve never trained specifically for the press or sumo deadlift. I’m excited to see how this goes.

Sumo Deadlift:
375×1@7
390×1@8
310×5
295×5 x 4 sets
*It’s obvious this is a novel lift. I started with a pretty wide stance, but had to move it in as the sets progressed due to some rapidly accumulating muscular fatigue in my glutes and hamstrings. From the amount of weight I was able to work up to, I think this is going to be an efficient way to pull for me as long as my hips can tolerate it. I’ve NEVER trained the sumo deadlift more than a few one off times in a pivot block or something, so the fact that I was able to work up to 390 on day one is promising. I expect to see some rapid improvement as my technique improves and I get some volume under me. I’m kind of in no man’s land with this, so even the RPE ratings are total guesswork. I did drop the weight on the back offs due to the acute fatigue, but all the reps were fast. Any comments are welcome.
