Brian Carroll 6/21/2014 Training Log

BRIAN02 640

I’m currently in an off-season training mode, and I’m looking to do a meet in the fall. Bodyweight is currently down to 270 from 293 and I want to continue becoming more healthy and active (walking a mile per day) and eventually get back into a precontest prep by August 2014. Best official equipped lifts in competition are 1185 squat, 825 bench, 800 deadlift with a 2730 total.

Current training split:
Saturday – Squat and Dead
Monday – Bench
Wednesday – Squat and Dead assistance
Thursday – full and buff/core work

Warm-up:
Mcgill big 3
Goblet Squat
Band Goblet

Goal:
A bit of a deload as I try to get back on a normal rotation from Scott being here and moving some things around. Will be back on schedule starting Sat 6/28 where I’ll be squatting and pulling once again.

Training:
Goblet squat: 3×10
One arm KB swing: 3×10
One leg GM: 3×10
GHR: 3×10
Band fly: 3×15
Reverse sled drag: 200 yards

Overview:
Nothing too much to report. Just some easy work that is usually done on my assistance day for Sqt/dl. I’ll be back on schedule very soon. In the meantime, the sled drags and ham work is BLOWING my legs up. Good stuff.

Brian is a retired world-class powerlifter with over two decades of world-class powerlifting. From 1999 to 2020, Brian Carroll was a competitive powerlifter, one of the most accomplished lifters in the sport's history. Brian started off competing in bench press competitions 'raw,' then, shortly into the journey, he gravitated toward equipped lifting as there were no "raw" categories then. You only had to choose from single-ply (USPF) and Multi-ply (APF/WPC). Brian went on to total 2730 at 275 and 2651 at 242 with more than ten times his body weight in three different classes (220, 242, 275), and both bench pressed and deadlifted over 800 pounds in two other weight classes. He's totaled 2600 over 20 times in 2 different weight classes in his career. With 60 squats of 1000lbs or more officially, this is the most in powerlifting history, regardless of weight class or federation, by anyone not named David Hoff. Brian realized many ups and downs during his 20+ years competing. After ten years of high-level powerlifting competition and an all-time World Record squat at 220 with 1030, in 2009, Brian was competing for a Police academy scholarship. On a hot and humid July morning, Brian, hurdling over a barricade at 275lbs, landed on, fell, and hurt his back. After years of back pain and failed therapy, Brian met with world-renowned back specialist Prof McGill in 2013, which changed his trajectory more than he could have imagined. In 2017, Brian Carroll and Prof McGill authored the best-selling book about Brian's triumphant comeback to powerlifting in Gift of Injury. Most recently (10.3.20) -Brian set the highest squat of all time (regardless of weight class) with 1306 lbs – being the first man to break the 1300lb squat barrier at a bodyweight of 303 lbs.
