Road to elite total

[kaneman]

I will be logging my journey for the next 10 weeks as I prep for my next power meet. This will be my third meet that I have competed in and I’m going for an elite total (over 1701lbs for my weight). I will log diet as well as I can and my training for each day. Gear will be a mix between dyel and advanced. My last meets total was 1658, 606 squat/424 bench/ 628 dead. I’m looking to hit around 650 squat/ 460 bench/680 deadlift. I will be competing at 242 and am currently sitting around 250. I have been on 4 iu supertropin for about 4 weeks and will run that continuous as well as I’m on my regular trt of 250mg Test e a week plus the past month I’ve added 200mg mast on top of that. Cycle will be
Wk 1-8 npp/prop blend 500mg
Wk 1-8 test E 300mg
Wk 1-8 mast 500mg
Wk 4-8 dbol/adrol 25mg injectable ed
4 iu supertropin am/pm split
50mg proviron ed
100mcg t4 ed
Aromasin 12.5 mg eod (adjustable)

I’m looking to go pretty big this time around and hopefully grab state record for squat. These numbers would put me at a good spot for uspa nationals or IPL worlds depending on what my coach thinks. Hope you can all follow along and give pointers where you see them. I haven’t seen very many logs for powerlifting so hopefully you guys enjoy!!

Today’s workout was bench and some back
Comp bench 8*3 @65%
Incline bench 2*5@ 70%
Pin bench 3*8@60%
Seal rows 5*10
Two way raises 3*10
Rope push downs 3*10

Been having a little pain in my left shoulder so my coach hit it with he pain pill. GOD DAM that shit hurts lol will probably be a bit bruised but no pain no gain. He said I had a pretty good sized knot where my pec meets my shoulder so I’m glad that’s all it probably is.

Squats today!! Legs were a bit sore still so this one kinda hurt lol.
Comp squat-5*3@75% (455lbs)
Pin squats-3*4@80%
Safety bar front squat-3*6@70%
Ab roll outs 3*20

Pin squats at 80% suuuuck!! Feeling pretty good though definitely ready to jump back on cycle to help recovery. I’m thinking I’m going to just start it this mon instead of waiting 2 weeks. It would add another two weeks of on cycle but that’s not to bad since I was only planning a short 8 week run. Joints and all that are good I’m just slow to recover with legs and back. I was getting a bit of of carpel tunnel feeling from the hgh but it’s going away slowly with adding in the t4.

Ok so I started the cycle yesterday!! Pinned 1.2ml of DYEL npp/prop mix and was very pleased at the minimal pip from it. Was thinking it was gunna sting a bit being as it’s two short esters in one blend but absolutely no pain next day at all. Also pinned 1ml AP mast prop and couldn’t believe how thin it was. This is my first time with mast prop so I’m excited to see the results from freeing up test!! Let the MF games begin!!!

Have been sick the past couple days so no updates. Kinda worked out cause this was a de-load week anyways so I’m not missing anything. Just trying to eat as much as I can since my appetite is way down due to the flu. Will update soon


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[kaneman]

So to update I think that I just had some test flu from introducing the prop/npp blend on sat. I’m feeling a lot better and I know that it wasn’t the normal flu cause I’d still be out right now!! That’s good news for me cause I know it’s some good shit if I get test flu, hasn’t happened for a while so I didn’t even think about it being the reason but it started the day after I pinned so best guess is that’s it!!

Alright back at it after deload week!!! Forgot to post Monday’s workout
Squat 3*8@65%
Front squat 2*6@75%
Box squats 2*5@75%
Leg press 4*12
GHR 3*8

Legs felt pretty good after a little break I will be needing to take more tome and stretch out cause my it band is starting to get a bit tight I can tell. Tuesday was bench day!! By far my best and favorite lift of the three.
Comp bench (paused) 3*6@75%
Incline bench 2*5@80% 1amrap
Pin press 3*8@70%
Seal rows 3*8
Bent over bd raises 4*12
Alt 50lb db curls 4*10

Felt strong as fuck this workout!! Everything is moving really good and feeling light!! No issues with elbow which sometimes pops up when going heavy on bench. Diet is the same haven’t changed anything as of late since I’m pretty much right where I want to be as far as weight.

Tonight’s workout was deadlifts!! Now usually I’m not that excited about deads, they are the weakest of my lifts for sure. I have been working hard as fuuuuck to get my form down and things are actually coming together pretty well!! It’s amazing how little tweaks make such a huge difference. Workout was
Deadlift- 3*2@80% (540lbs)
Trap bar deads- 2*2 and 1amrap@80% (got 6on amrap)
RDL-4*8@365lbs
100lb weighted planks 3*30sec

Hey brother I’d recommend trying to do all your deadlift work as singles low rest . You can do the same prescribed volume and perctange, but you get much more technique practice on the setup.
I did this last prep and hit a 70lb deadlift p.r!
Really helped my tightness and speed off the floor
Then you just have to hold on and be patient for those heavy lockouts

This is the program my coach has me set up for. I’m pretty confident in his methods. I totaled 175lbs higher between all 3 lifts after his last program. He also holds the IPL record at his weight class for deadlift. I do see what your saying as far as singles but he has me reset after every rep, no bouncing off the floor, this keeps everything nice and tight while still being able to push reps

Ok so I’m about two weeks in now and gear is in full effect so I thought I’d give a little update. Still running 500 npp/testp blend (DYEL) and 500 mast p (AP) and 300 test E (AP). This blend is amazing!!! I’ve run a lot of npp and I can say this is the best my joints have ever felt. Especially given my workouts are pretty taxing at this point of prep. Prop has kicked in on top of my trt dose and I’ve had to up my asin dose to 12.5mg 5 days a week. Libido is crazy strong right now can’t give the wife a break lol. I will probably be pulling bloods in a couple weeks and I’m very interested to see how this mast is helping free test cause my strength and recovery have increased big time in the past week or so. Anyways very happy with both sponsors gear, I knew what to expect with AP as I’ve run their gear several times and it’s always been fire but I’m veeeery happy with DYEL as this is my first run with them!!

Today was squats!!! Been stretching a lot more on down time and spending extra time rolling on the racquet ball between sets and it’s paying off. No IT pain at all for today’s session. Workout was
Squat-3*8@70% (425) w/1amrap
Caber bar squat-4*8@75%
Front squat-2*10@65% w/1amrap
Ab rollouts-3*20

Felt smooth today squats are feeling and looking great and pain is subsiding. I’m thinking a 670lb squat is coming very soon!!

Good to hear that the pain is subsiding! I’ve started stretching like crazy between sets when squatting! It seems to help. Maybe I’ll throw in a foam roller or tennis ball too.

Keep it up bro!

Yo ! Post a video of the 670lbs squat if you get one, it will be complement the one of you deadlifting a SUV just great.
Trying but struggling here to lift heavy, it's motivating to follow up your log. Best of luck with your upcoming competition.

Looks easy when you do them ! Good idea with the youtube channel, quite a few powerlifting fans there.

And thanks for the offer on advice, i'll mostly follow the same program for at least another couple more months than will reconsider if bodymass gains keep on outpacing strength gains, should have quite a few questions to post on the forum by that time.

Today’s workout
Seated overhead press- 3*5@225lbs
Close incline bench- 3*5@315lbs

Today was a rest day so no update but I did get my next weeks layout for workouts and tomorrow will be a fun one. 5*2 at 500lbs for squat. I think this might be a good day to test out that victory halo that showed up at my door last week!!! Anyone used it yet? Will be my first time ever using it so I’m excited to see what the hype is about


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[kaneman]

Ok so I decided to test out the halo from victory HOLY SHIT!!! I haven’t felt like that in forever!! Smashed through heavy squats and felt like I could go all fucking night!!! This shit is the truth!!! I took just 2ml about 45min before hitting the weights. It wasn’t like tne or anything like that that you can feel a sense of it was just I felt like I could lift anything and just keep goin!! I’m sold, this will be in my powerlifting bank for sure!! Workout tonight was
Squat-5*2@80% (495)
Front squat- 2*1 and 1 amrap at 85%
Box squats- 3*6@75%
Leg press-4*12
GHR-3*10
Ab rollouts 3*20

That was easy ! 495 doesn't look like 80% anymore.
Be careful not to get injured if you increase weights too fast.

Thanks man!! My coach rarely has me go over 70% for lifts. He doesn’t increase training % unless my lifts are looking way to easy. Friday I go back down to a 3*3 at 60% I think. It’s a weird program bounces around on weight a lot but it’s worked so far!


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[jnab]

Seeing your level no doubt you know how to select a good coach. Powerlifting scene looks great in the US, not many people able to coach around here, if any.
FWIW I used to train 15 years back following Westside principles (what i understood from them at least). Came back very recently but still keen on working to 1RM frequently (that taste for 1 rm remained, not the strength :( ). Yet reading programs around, Russian or US, it seems working with lower percentages is quite popular now - and athletes performances keep on rising. No doubt it works.

Keep it up, waiting to see your 670 squat !

Feeling good. Weight is moving fast from watching video, legs are a bit sore I gotta stay on top of stretching real good right after working sets!! Working with my new belt is going real good!! If anyone needs a good belt pioneer is where it’s at!!! As far as AAS everything is great to. Still on same doses and really loving this npp with mast. Have used tren and mast together but never this combo. Aggression in the gym is great libido is crazy strong right now (I’m sure this is From mast and proviron together) strength is good and joints feel on point!!

Today’s squat session was fucking awesome!! Finally got to throw some big weight around and it felt amazing. Nothing like the rush of being under weight that would crush normal humans!!
Squats- 3*2@555lbs
Box squat- 2*1 and 1 amrap at 555lbs (nailed 6 on amrap)
Front squat-3*3@335lbs!!

Man I was so happy with how everything was moving I’m seriously pumped as fuck right now!! Hitting 3 doubles at only 50lbs lighter then my pr is awesome especially since I’m pretty taxed with how hard I’ve been going lately!! Can’t wait to see what I’m hitting at comp time!!!

Nice lifts !!
Good to see someone keeping the Powerllifting subforum alive.
Why do you keep the safety bars so low on the rack though ? Your lifts sure look easy enough (when you do them... 555lbs would crush me) you are unlikely to need the safety but how do you manage to get away from the bar if you ever miss a rep ?

Good point I just don’t plan on missing reps at this weight. When I get above 600 I adjust them for sure

I like your choices of exercises that supplement your main lifts (bench, squat, and deads). Are you following a certain program and how did you come up with the certain exercises and your split and also the percentages you are using?

I have a coach who writes my programming. The percentages are off my one rep max from my last meet. He has moved some of the percentages up 15-20lbs cause the lifts were to easy.

I do and our lifts are very close thats why I am very interested to see how this works for you. Both my squat and deadlift are 675 but my bench is 435. I only weight 238 at the moment though but I am looking for good supplemental exercises to increase my bench because I feel like after the program I have written for myself my deadlift and squat really benefited but my bench did not. I have my own progression formula that I wrote that I believe works well I just need to find certain exercise that work on my weak point of the lift. Fore example, right not I have an A and B split. One week I bench according to my progression using percentages of my max and then I do reverse bands bench with certain weight, the following week or week B I bench according to my progression and then I do 3 board presses but have slowly switched to pin presses bc i feel like that works better for some reason for me at least. I am thinking about adding reverse band deads and maybe squats as well. Its awesome to see how you are making progress though. any reason you went with npp instead of tren?

I use pin presses a lot to get past weaker points in my lifts. If I find I get stuck at the top I set it high if I feel like I have a harder time getting out of he hole I set it to the bottom. They are great at breaking those hard sticking points. My coach also has me use reverse bands but usually only closer to meet time and sets the weight at like 115%. I went with npp for two reasons. One I don’t handle tren very well and can usually only run it for a short amount of time and as beneficial as it is for strength if I’m not in the right state of mind it’s just not going to work for me. Secondly I like npp cause I feel around the same amount of strength gains as I do with tren just slightly less but the joint help is really what I find to be most useful when it comes down to grinding it out during prep. Staying healthy with good joints is just as important if not more then the huge strength gains from tren.

Ok so fantastic news I kinda went off program this last day of deload cause I honestly really feel like I’m not to fatigued and didn’t need that long of a break. So I went in yesterday and was supposed to just hit a 3*3 at 60% for deads and some accessory work after that. I said fuuuck it and ended up pulling a 45lb pr on deadlifts!!! 675 came off the ground so fast I really couldn’t believe it!! So stoked!! My coach was a little pissed when I showed him but I honestly think he was super happy and just didn’t want me to know cause he needs me to stay on program lol. I’m so excited though cause we sat down and talked a bit about where I’m at and what he projecting for me as far as openers and lifts for the meet and we’ve decided that my last attempt on deadlifts and squat are going to be state record numbers!! If I could break two state record in the same day at my 3rd meet ever I’d be so dam happy!! Anyways still on cloud 9 from yesterday sorry for the rant will try and post video later!!

Transformer bar front squat paused-4*6@70%
Reverse hyper- 3*10

Even more props for hitting that total without using tren or orals. There should be plenty more in the tank when you bring those ace cards back out. Goodluck in your next prep/ offseason man!
