17 sets of OHP (Arnold press is not materially different)? This is a prime example of more is not better but actually worse. Are you running a program?

531 BBB for bench/squat/OHP then high volume accessories. If I ran into issues with fatigue or injury I suppose I’d change it up, but I like what I do and the progress I’m making sooo….

Did a six-week heavy/light routine, trying to shorten my daily workouts.

Last day was today so I tried for some PRs and got a back squat PR (375) and a deadlift PR (425) ... one-rep max each.

Well I’m back, fellas. I started this thread many years ago. Covid and depression fed my weaknesses and I put on 60 lbs in 4 years. I was 260 on Labor Day. Cleaned up my diet and started walking. I was way too fat to start lifting with any decent form.

I’m down to 225 and lifting in earnest again as of this month. Restarted Grey Skull.

OP - 95 x 9
Assisted Chins - 130 x 8
DL - 145 x 20

Going to be a long road to get back to where I was but I’m looking forward to it.

Boring But Big: Beefcake Cycle 1, Week 3, Day 1

Kettlebell Swings 35 x 3x8

Squats
205/230/255 1x5
205 5x10

Chins 1x8, 1x6, 6x5, 1x4, 1x2 (50 total)
Dips 50 in 6 sets (10,10,10,8,8,4)

I had to double check that I was doing the 5's Pro progression correctly, 5 @ 95% had me scared. I hit the reps though. I was toast after the 5x10 @ 75%, and still had to get the dips done. Ultimately, I hit all the reps and it was challenging, and that was the point of choosing to run the Beefcake rather than plain Boring But Big.

Going to do my Burpees later today (next level is 3 sets of 12 in :36 seconds with a minute rest)

ETA Burpees,3 sets of 12 in :36 seconds. Burpees are soooo much easier to do hours after a workout as opposed to immediately after.

If anyone is interested in this kind of thing, reactive training systems has a free training log. You can add workouts, weigh ins, and something called TRAC (supposed to track recovery). It's pretty easy to use and I like it for the tracking of my total, PRs, and WILKS score.
