mickc1965 training log

Nice, was impressed with your tolerance of doing multiple exercises per bodypart and 3x week! But yeah good idea to cut volume when it's feeling a bit much

I was starting to feel fatigue probably because I just deloading between cycles rather than take a full 9/10 day SD, also got fed up with training in the morning every day and setting alarm @ 5.30 or earlier particularly as my diet protocol is 16:8 IF and that then means no eating for another 6.5 hours or so.

I like that myoreps setup, are you basically increasing weights slightly once you reach 15+3+3+3+3+3, then try to get back to those reps with the new weight?

That is correct for as long as I can maintain that, have started at ~90% of my current 15 rep max so there is a little bit of wriggle room over the next two or three weeks - for clarification I have 3 chest exercises that I will rotate over the week and they are Flat Barbell / Incline Barbell / Dips, Back exercises will be Pendlay Rows / Wide Grip Pullups / Deadlifts, Legs will be the same exercises all week and they are Front Squats, RDL and Barbell Lunges, Shoulders will be the same all week and they are Upright Rows and Barbell Face Pulls (do not do OH Press any more as was always getting weaker on this exercise), EZ Curls for biceps, CG Bench for triceps and Standing Calf Raises for Calves for 3 sessions.

I find it hard on my lower back, especially the RDL... with front squats etc, do you re-rack the weight in between the minisets, or just hold onto it? I guess it depends how long rest periods are in between them..

With front squats, calf raises (and probably deadlifts) I will re rack the weight and pick back up after 8-10 seconds, with means its about 20 seconds before I actually start again, all other exercises will be 10-15 seconds between the myo rep sets. RDL is currently at lightish weights performed very slowly as once I progress onto higher loads its my lower back that feels it rather than my hamstrings.

EDIT - 20/09 noticed last night when doing lunges an ache in lower back and today it feels a little tender, maybe doing this, RDL and front squats 3 times a week is a bit much for lower back (shouldn't be I know) so will drop this exercise for the time being and maybe add it back in a few weeks.

Average Weight - 166.6lbs / 75.568kgs - down 1.0lbs / 0.454kg

Average Weight is calculated over the last 7 days (todays weight is 167.4 and range across the week was 165.6 - 167.4)

Average daily calorie intake based on last weeks body weight (167.6 lbs)

Nett (after cardio) 3,016 (x18.0)
Gross (before cardio) - 3,132 (x18.69)


Cardio - for consistency anything over 35,000 steps in a week will be logged as cardio, for every 1000 steps over that figure 50 kcals will be deducted as cardio, should I do any running or cycling this will be logged separately - this week was 16,338 steps over

Average daily macros (c/p/f are from food only)
