 So this week I'm doing a deload week before I begin cutting, combined with the shorter sessions last week going for one-rep maxes I think I'll be set up nicely and well-rested to start this cut.

Week of surprises concludes....260 on incline benching...I thought I'd get 240, maybe 245 if I had enough juice.  This one was really a surprise...maybe because I didn't deadlift first...Also did some deadlifting at the end here...315 for 5, that might be my first set over 2 or 3 reps on deadlifting in....5 years?

March 3, 2021 Upper Body

Well the surprises continue....Again, I usually drop off pretty fast from 5 rep max to 3 rep to 1 rep....most folks get a bit of a runway there, I never have for some reason...I figured 265 would be my one rep max and benched 275 instead....the 185 on head-supported rows is a pr technically....not that I really ever tried for a 1RM there before.

  • Guillotine Press: 185*5
  • Head-Supported Rows: 185*1 NEW PR!! lol

March 2, 2021 Lower Body

 So this week rather than take it off since I just finished the bulk, I'm going to try and see what my rough 1 rep maxes are. I haven't really trained for them, so I don't expect them to be that high.  Or at least I didn't.  I wasn't expecting to get 385 on the squats here or 4051 on the snatch-grip Romanian deadlifts.  Granted it's lower than I would be at if I had been doing singles and triples all winter, but it's not that bad....for this cut I'm going to focus on triples I think; I'm wondering if my one rep maxes might actually go up.  I'm going to aim for 2700-2800 calories per day as well.  Last summer was great being that cut, but when I look at those photos my legs just don't have enough mass.  If I can replicate what I was doing last year (fasted incline walking for instance) and couple that with more calories I might be able to get to a point where I'm just as cut but with maybe 5-8 more lbs of muscle on me.....


  • HPS: 95*3 - warmup
  • BB Squats: 275*3 315*3 340*1 360*1 375*1 385*1
  • Snatch-Grip RDL: 315*1 365*1 405*1

 This coming week I'm going to try and max out on squats, benching, and then next Saturday Incline benching.  I may max on a couple other things as well, we'll see.  In the meantime, I kept deadlifting weight light here.  Bonus though, my other 10 lbs. plate arrived, which means I can up the weight on hanging power snatches.  I need to order more weight plates now though because I already maxed with what I have.
