Just three training sessions a week! it’s all about the strength with a little stongman conditioning thrown in.
Back to heavy volume and a ME (max effort) Tuesday which turned out to be a mixed bag; a personal best in the push press and a groin blow-out on my way to an Olympic squat pr.
The beauty of human movement is the synchrony of the hips, glutes and hamstrings firing off at just the right time.
I got through another tough, but good week of training. Scott is waiting how much of this the “old guy” can take. He is in for a long wait for his answer.
Every now and then, something works well and I may even get a PR or too, but they are always a precursor to getting crushed! This time, the tires crushed!
The first two sessions of the week are devoted to strength and working the central nervous systems (CNS). Saturday is speed, technique and work capacity. This is the hardest type of training I have ever done. It is great!
I started and finished this week with rest days, yet in between, I had the most challenging training sessions I can recall. What doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger, right?
I started getting trained by my pal Scott of http://www.eastweststrength.com. After watching him train others from the old Freak Factory, I decided it was time for some real training. I came away with 2 killer sessions.
Started and finished very light this week but between the buns was the meat. A deload week, more or less.
