2013 Plan
I plan to compete twice in 2013 though I have no particular meets in mind. My plan is to improve
my raw strength. I'll probably compete at 242 though 275 isn't out of the question
if I can do so and not be a fatty. The basic training outline as of now, though it will evolve as time goes on and movements will be changed as needed, looks like this:
Bench Day
As old school as it gets. A modified Hepburn routine using 8 Singles morphing into 8 doubles and finally 8 triples. This has already started with 8x1 with 255. This 8x1 into 8x3 alternates with a 5x5 plan that is the classic same-weight 5x5. This started at 235.
Lats
Traps
Triceps
Bodybuilding Day
Steep Incline Press
Curls
Forearms
Abs
Calves
Posterior Chain Day
Squats or Deads
Rear Delts
A little about me
I have competed in both Olympic Weightlifting and Bench-Only Lifting. I competed in Olympic Lifting as a kid. Best lifts of 255 Olympic Press, 225 Snatch, 255 Clean & Jerk. I met many of the great lifters and coaches from the 60's and 70's. After a 20-year break to serve my country I started lifting regularly again and competing in Bench-Only. Best Lift: 419lbs "equipped".
Feel free to follow along on the adventure...
