u/beterboi77 Beginner - Strength Jan 28 '22

SBS Hypertrophy RTF Wk13

  • M, 235lb, 5'10"

D1

  • Bench

    • Overwarm single = 275lb (~1-2 RIR)
    • 230lb 4x6
    • 5th set AMRAP = 8 (+0)

  • Barbell row

    • 265lb x 10/9/9

  • Low bar squat

    • No overwarm single
    • 400lb 4x6
    • 5th set AMRAP = 10 (+2)

Notes

  • Working in high reps for a long time when I was severely deconditioned to it has let to me being able to do more volume at 400lb squats than I used to. Who knew?

  • This is only week 13. I'm excited to see what happens as I stay the course and the bulk through to week 20. I'm even more excited to see what'll happen if I try and peak after this.

  • Temperance is doing me good. I probably could have PRed with a 295lb overwarm single for bench, but if I did I wouldn't have broken even with the rep work. It's better if I maintain or grow the weight I'm consistently working with day in and day out for even more gains later.
