So as you may know, I took a couple weeks off from higher intensity training, and kept training pretty low intensity (mainly body weight), as I’m trying to nurse a bicep injury.
But Today, I felt pretty good, so I hit the weights again. Summer is coming, so it’s time to tighten u a little and put that training and nutrition plan into over drive.
Here was my Pull/Push along with the NEW NUTRITION PLAN (by top strength coach Jason Ferruggia) I’m trying out.
I’m always one to try and learn new things in the training and nutrition world, and although this way of eating goes against EVERYTHING I though I knew about eating correctly (even my own successes with fat loss nutrition), I decided to give it a go anyway! We’ll see what happens…and I will keep the blog updated.
Anyway, today was day one of eating this way and here was today’s training session!
SESSION: PULL/PUSH – Low Volume, Heavy Weight
Barbell Row:
285/1, 1, 1, 1, 1
Close Grip Bench Press:
285/1, 1, 1, 1, 1
Close Grip Pullup:
Body weight + 60# of chain/5
Barbell Deadlift:
405/1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1
Weighted Dips:
Body weight + 90# / 6
NOTES: It was a good session considering I was under-eating most of the day (see THE RENEGADE DIET above). I felt energetic and strong (as some of my lifts increased) but I did start to get tired toward the end of my session since I’m used to carbs being present during my workout. No big deal, as I am sure my body will adjust.
We’ll see how I feel in the am!
Stay Strong,
CJL
