Summer holidays have made it hard to train. I was away from home for a few days on and off over the last two weeks. I will get to the gym today but just to get back on track. I was going to train for a meet on August 24 in Winnipeg, but since I am entered in the Westerns in Calgary on Oct 4, I am going to base my training around that date. Two meets in 6 weeks is too much, and since the Westerns are more important thats what I'm training for.
I am going to re-start cycle of 5/3/1 on Monday, along with a 3 week smolov jr for the bench followed by a reload week. Then cycle 8 and another 3 week smolov jr to peak my bench then a deload week leading into the Westerns on Oct 4.
As of right now, there are 9 lifters in my division for Westerns making it the biggest class. I am going to be up against some strong competition, but am really looking forward to it. I'm not concerned about the other lifters, I'm just going to focus on PR's for me and building on my total. There are 80 lifters total in this meet, making it huge and way bigger than anything than I've ever been a part of.
I will re-start blogging my training again on Monday when I start cycle 7.
