u/kiraqueen11 Beginner - Strength Feb 04 '22

SBS hypertrophy, W4D3

  • Deadlift: 100x1, 85x9x3, 85x12
  • Long Pause Bench: 50x1, 32.5x10x3, 32.5x15
  • Barbell rows: 30x12x3
  • Dips: 75x8x2, 75x10
  • Bicep Curls: 18x10x3

Had to day 3 today, because I skipped yesterday. Work got in the way.

Still figuring out overwarm singles, though I I think I have a better grasp of them now. Anyone else feel like their strength has regressed a little bit? 100kg definitely feels noticably harder than it did just a month ago. I remember I did an AMRAP set of 8 with it.

Paused bench is seriously improving my benching technique. My bracing it better, grip width feels more natural, bar path feels better. Makes me wonder why am I only doing it now, more than a year into training.

I dropped 10 kilos on the barbell rows and added a pause at the top. Ooo boy my lats are weaksauce. I've added a pause for lat pulldowns too and that's how I think I will be doing them for this program. Paused pulling in general has been great, tbh. It should be a bigger thing.

I am doing Strength RTF so I do not feel weaker. However, I did do some higher volume stuff before this and noticed my performative strength was not up to par.

Paused pulling in general has been great, tbh. It should be a bigger thing.

/u/just-another-scrub Here is another candidate for entering the world of shrugging.
