OrionStang Posted November 1, 2011 Report Posted November 1, 2011 Here's my update. Been going real heavy for the past couple months, so i'm backing it down a little. DOing an oldschool powerlifting program called the matrix. Its 10 weeks, progressively getting heavier. Take your max and add 30-50lbs to it, this is what you base your workouts off of. Week 1, use 55% of that number for 3 sets of 10(bench for example), then assistance work. Week 2, use 60% for 3 sets of 9. Week 3, 65% for 3 sets of 8. By week 6 or so it gets heavy, but you are getting stronger. Goal is to get 455 for 2 on bench, 475 for 2 on squat(ass to ground), and deadlift as much as possible lol.

OrionStang Posted November 7, 2011 Report Posted November 7, 2011 Weighed 275 this morning. I've been eating clean for the most part, except for the leftover Halloween candy I been snacking on. Pounds still dropping, and strength going up, though. Start week 2 of the Matrix today, 3 sets of 9 at 60%. SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread

OrionStang Posted November 7, 2011 Report Posted November 7, 2011 Ive been looking for some more core exercises what do you guys do to train your core? If you deadlift heavy every week, you need nothing else. Maybe planks, 3 times 60 seconds, if you feel you need a second day a week of core work. SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread
