training thoughts

I downloaded Dr Seth albersworth's book on conjugate a few days ago and I really like how he has his secondary training laid out.  I think I want to incorporate some of that into my own training.. I think I will start a volume block and push hard to peak before wrestling season starts 

Squats: his main accessory is always quad focused and he does either 10-12, 8-10, or 6-8 during lighter weeks and never goes below 4-6.  Usually all done around an RPE 8..  first half of the weeks is a "machine" in our case this would probably be belt squats for us... I think it might be worth trying to rly push the belt squats as the weights get heavier he transitions to something more specific (IE front squats, I'll probably do the SSB box squat here)

Bench: he usually does 2 bench days.. the 2nd bench day is basically a deload/practice day and where he builds muscle/does shoulder work. It's something I've been doing more or less already anyway but I like how he has it structured.  He'll do 3 week waves which I think would line up well with my phases where he changes his exercises slightly (IE if he was doing an incline DB press he might change it to flat). He'll also do a lot of chest flyes for pec rom and on the deload day he'll do dips for time which I like.

Deadlift I'm going to keep the same as what I've been doing except I want to get some higher rep stiffs in on the days I work up to the heavy singles.. I'll use the first working set weight.  I'll also stick to front squats after as my swiss army knife back movement lol.

So I'll have 16 weeks to do this.. I'll probably spend 6 weeks on the volume.. 10s and 8s how I've done, and then 9 weeks with 6s and below.

Squat VOLUME: I'll do the box squats for 10s and 8s with the SSB, belt squats for my accessory, a heavier back raise and then ATG Split squats, sit ups, and a back movement.

Bench volume: I'll try the wide grips for 10s and 8s, machine press as my accessory, leg raises, triceps, flyes, rear delts and lats (if my elbow lets me), and then some curls to try and fix my elbow 

Deadlift same as before 

Bench day 2: medium intensity shoulder press, dips 20s on 30s off, front/side raise superset, upper back exercise, pullovers, abs, maybe some arms to try and fix my elbow.

training idea/thoughts

I think I'm going to try some different variations as my first movement and save my main movements for after..ok squat and bench anyway. I like how my deadlift is progressing..I'm thinking SSB paused squats and either a close grip bench or a spoto bench. I also want to focus on my arms a bit more too for a block..

I've already done some higher reps so I'm thinking 2 weeks of 8s 6s and 4s with my first week of 8s being really light just to get a feel for the movements before my honeymoon where I actually deload.  Not sure what I'll do after but I think maybe I'll hit some incline bench and front squats before moving back into some heavier volume and hopefully some single PRs

Back cramped up halfway through the workout, so I called it with the squats and just did core work at home. Disappointing bc I definitely had the 325 for 5 sets. Hopefully the hypers will help me strengthen my erectors.  I also did a couple sets of the belt squat to get some of the leg work in

3/17 training deload

Got food poisoning Thursday night and still feeling like crap.  I'm not gonna push the weights this week just gonna play around with the new axle bar and try to do some cardio.  Gonna try and get back to my volume training at ppops next week

volume phase training idea

I've been loving this DC style of training I've been doing.. I'm thinking about just replacing the "main lift" with SBD for volume with the volume set up I've used, and having the other exercises be DC style.. not sure if I want to do full body or just do one a day

This is a really rough draft but I'm thinking something along these lines:

3x a week full body
Day 1 squat volume, deadlift variation (axle bar or RDL) Arms 2x6-10

Day 2 bench volume, SSB squat heels elevated, DB SLDL (smith machine on quads) 2x6-10

Day 3 Deadlift Volume (half the reps of squat/bench), cambered bar wide grip press, SSB BSS 2x6-10

OR

3x a week push pull legs
(I'm leaning towards this one bc it'll give me more flexibility in the summer moving days around)

Day 1: squat volume, SSB squat, SSB BSS, leg extensions

Day 2: bench volume, wide grip football bench, heavy arms

Day 3: deadlift volume/byukid, Axle Bar 5x2, slider BW leg curls, sand bag cleans

Leg raise warmup each day

I might try this for deadlift:
