31 Mar Danny Vega – Powerbuilding Week 4 – OHP and Squats

Over the next several months I will be the Guinea pig for some new ideas on training and diet that I will perfect with the help of Tucker Loken and Brian Carroll. This will be the groundwork for an upcoming ebook that we will release in the near future.

Hit a new milestone this morning. Weighed in at 225.6. I feel really good too. Everything feels light, and my conditioning is way up.

2. Standing OHP 45×20, 95×12, 145×6, 165×6, 185×6,6,7 (1-2 min rest between sets)

4. Smith machine JM press 135×15, 165×15, drop set 165×10, 135×10
5. Bent over rope extension 42.5×20, 47.5×15, 52.5×20
