SoulsideJourney's log
Hi all,
New member here. I came across this forum last week and have to say it has really valuable info all around. Very good!
Anyway, I have decided to start a log here. Hopefully having a bit different goals than most, I assume, isn't a problem.
Some info: M, 25yo, 190cm, 80kgs, kcal = maintain.
Goals: increase broad jump, look okay, not having pathetic squat (I have loong femurs excuse).
Training: After listening to Mike T, I had to try it. Currently simplicity, time efficiency (family life) and experimentation >>> optimality.
-daily bj (broad jump sadly):
five attempts, record best try
-high bar back squat:
max single (no hype, 1x week, I know lower RPE might be better, but I love these)
3x8 (@70%) (3x week)
-chin up:
same as squat
-ring dip
max single (no hype, 1x week)
4x3 (@85%) (2x week)
-dumbbell bench press
3x8 (@RPEeasy) (1x week)
Even though I feel I'm kind of similar to that girl on RTS podcast that prefers to fail her way than succeed yours, I welcome any suggestions etc:)
Started last week, so this is from yesterday, week 2, day 1.
1/7/19
2.1
bj: 270cm
hbbs: 120x1 (RPE9.5, e1rm = 125) + 87.5x8 3x (70%)
rdip: 88x3 4x (85%, bw+8)
Hopefully I can keep logging fairly regularly. Not everyday, but i will post all the workouts just so to have everything in one place:)

Re: SoulsideJourney's log
Welcome aboard, @soulsidejourney!
There are a few T&F athletes on the board, if you haven't run across them already.
Another dude that has some interesting training cycles is @ape288 who has a YouTube channel, "forest of wolves gym" or something similar. He used to do a lot of bounding and jumping mixed in with barbell stuff.

Re: SoulsideJourney's log
As a clarification by "Broad Jump" you mean Standing Long Jump?

Re: SoulsideJourney's log
Yep, that’s right. I was thinking of using slj but bj sounds better;) (last time I was at this BF level I wouldn’t be able to think about these kinds of things so it’s okay, I guess)ChrisMcCarthy1979 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 03, 2019 12:37 am As a clarification by "Broad Jump" you mean Standing Long Jump?
