Hi Guys,
Hope you are all well. My progress as not be great I′m becoming more and more convinced that I will be unable to make any more progress as you know I been training once every 21 days on a routine of rotating around Bench and Squats, here′s how it went.
19 Nov Benchpress warm-ups 132*8 176*2 220*2 workset 242*2 plus 2forced reps Barbell Curls warm-ups 66*10 110*8
3 Dec Squats warm-ups 132*10 220*2 308*2 workset 352*6
17Dec Benchpress warm-ups 132*8 176*2 220*2 workset 242*4 plus 1 forced rep Barbell Curls warm-ups 66*10 110*8
30Dec Squats warm-ups 132*10 220*2 308*2 workset 352*6 lower reps full squats
14Jan Benchpress warm-ups 132*8 176*2 220*2 workset 242*3 plus 1 forced rep
add more rest 20 days between workouts
4Feb Squats warm-ups 132*10 220*2 308*2 workset 352*8
24Feb Benchpress warm-ups 132*8 176*2 220*2 workset 242*5 plus 1 forced rep
add more rest 27 days between workouts
24Mar Squats warm-ups 132*10 220*2 308*2 352*2 workset 396*2
I add pulldowns to see if any strength had been lost I had not done any pulldowns for 153 days from the 22-10-03 till 24-03-04 add I had lost no strength on this movement last time I did pulldowns they were in a workout of there own and not after squats Pulldowns warm-ups 75*10 135*2 195*2 workset 255*4 plus one forced rep
I′m unsure were to go at this point I don′t know if it would be impossible for me to increase in strength because I have reach my genetic potential I don′t see my self as having great genetics but would say I′m above average I have reached a point of being able to lift the following poundage′s without the use of any steroids
Benchpress 242*4 pulldowns 255*4 deadlifts 396 *8 squats 396*2
Would you guys have any ideas that may help me further progress or do you believe I have come to the end of the genetic road so to speak?
I was thinking of trying superslow and recording TUL to make record keeping more accurate as a full rep at this stage may be too much to ask.
I have not started the Squat only workout yet, I′m a little apprehensive about just doing squats but I′m finding it very hard to make anymore progress.
Cheers…HIT.
