24 Aug Danny Vega – Triple Six Week 7 – Squatting, Benching

I just spent the last 3 months perfecting the 10/20/Powerbuilding template with Tucker Loken, and we nailed it. The ebook should be out by the fall under the guidance of our fearless leader, Brian Carroll. My newest goal is to complete the 666 challenge under the coaching of teammate Tony Cowden. This is by far the coolest goal I’ve set for myself and I hope to join the ranks of the few who have completed this challenge.

Lots going on! Weights are a bit lighter this week but the lifting volume is up and so is the running volume. Runs are getting easier and I’m feeling good. First things first, the lifting and running. Afterward, an announcement. Check it out.

Tuesday Squat

Squat 55×8, 145×5, 195×3, 235×3, 325×3, 5×4@405
