Tosa’s strength & conditioning log.

So I’m finally going to keep a log here. I didn’t before because my log was kept in spreadsheet form, and I didn’t want to write it down twice. But (1) That’s a poor excuse, and (2) I’m keep my log in a text document now. So here goes.

My lower body lifts are full of suck and are embarrassing. This is because of an injury to my Piriformis muscle. It’s better now, and my lifts are going up again. I don’t mean to make exceuses, the point is there’s a reason my squat, clean ect aren't where they should be for how long I've been training.

Nice, I convinced someone to start a log. Good luck man.

134 kg x 9

Front Squat (off pins, bottom start)

First time doing front squats starting from the bottom. Just trying to get the feel for the lift and see where I'm at. More challenging than I expected. May decide to do paused front squats instead.

4 100 ft trips
3 115 ft trips

Good fun.

Uphill both ways.

Did some gripper work, neck work, and levering. I've sometimes slack with these things, so if anyone's paying attention, feel free to give a not so gentle reminder if I haven't included these things in my log for a few days.

October 2, 2009.

Had a terrible nights sleep. I'm taking a computer programming class so I kept having weird dreams about programming my lifts. Had some caffeine for the first time in over a year. It did wonders.

Overhead Press

20 kg x 8
45 kg x 5
55 kg x 3
59.5 kg x 3, 5 sets

Chin-ups

Bw x 5 (80kg)
Bw + 10kg x 3
Bw + 17kg x 3
Bw + 27kg x 3, 5 sets

Psudeo stone lifts

75 kg x 1, 7 singles

I shouldn't do these the day after deadlifts. My routine needs some more tweaking.

And now with multimedia



The guy who was holding the camera said I need to get my head through sooner. Looking at the video I agree. Any other thoughts?
