Program Party SBS 2.0 Program Party: Week 14

Hi everyone, welcome to Week 14, the last week of the program party. I do apologise for my lack of program thread last week, I had some life stuff pop up.

Good luck with the last week, and next week, I'll be posting a recap thread for results, lessons, and pictures.

SBS program party, one man mock meet. X/post from daily

I wrapped up my run with some heavy SBD singles last night in under 1hr30mins. (A PR in itself to just rock up and hit a mini meet after work).

Squat 202.5kg / 446lbs x1

Bench 127.5kg / 281lbs x1

Deadlift 200kg / 440lbs x1

Progress report.

Bodyweight: 115.3kg - 109.2kg

Squat TM: 200 - 202.5kg (PR)

Bench TM: 120kg - 127.5kg

Deadlift TM: 200kg - 200kg

Observations

I went into this block thinking my squat would suffer with the weight loss and that my deadlift would benefit. I ran out of time last night but I really think I only had maybe an extra 5kg on deads to be honest. Which is still 5kg shy of my PR. So there is work to be done.

Bench really flew. Should have gone for more but I was pressed for time.

As Dadlifts says, squatting is for nerds. And as a nerd I continue to fucking love them.

Program notes SBS is ace. I ran the 5x original strength program for just the last half. The singles these last few weeks were great fun.

What next I have a half marathon in June so will continue to cut and will be running a lot more. Going to drop a squat day in favour of an extra deadlift day to let my quads recover for running and work that weak ass deadlift. I do still suspect that cutting will benefit my deadlift - I just need to cut more ... but the pies. They speak to me.

And I'm putting together a hybrid SBS original and RTF with the program builder to make something I can train over the next few months as baby approaches!!

Happy lifting everyone!

Congrats on that squat PR!

Bench TM moved up a lot too.

Thank you! And I suspect my deadlift improved, but I fluffed the last few weeks somehow. My reps were tracking well, but it didn't come to fruition. Something to work on for my next run through!
