Beeschnuts Strength Training Log
Finally starting a log on here after lurking H&F for like 7 years or so. A little about me: I'm 6ft tall and currently about the heaviest I've ever been at 212. I've been pokering since graduating college in 2005 and started doing personal training a couple years ago after getting my certification. Recently moved from the US to Germany and now playing poker on the Euro sites and doing personal training for the military community here. Also studying for the CSCS exam to become a certified strength and conditioning specialist.
Posted in the resolutions thread that some goals for this year were 405 squat, 405 deadlift and 300 bench. I might be hitting the deadlift and squat goals in about two weeks while the bench will take a while. Currently doing candito's 6 week strength program which I've run before. I'll finish up week 4 today, next week will be bench 275 for 1-4, squat 375 for 1-4, and deadlift 385 1-4 and then will attempt new maxes based on how many reps I get the week after. Hoping for 1100 total, something like 405, 405, 290. After that the plan will be to lean out while maintaining strength. Next post I'll put up my last few workouts.
