23 May Derek Wilcox: Strong(ish) Garagebell Chronicles: Ol Speedy McFastreps Winning The Hyper Trophy
On to a new training plan to make a run for another world record squat at the WPO Finals in November. Planning to do some weightlifting and highland games in the meantime to get healthier and more flexible before going back into meet prep!
Another solid week of training here chasing that hypertrophy and avoiding as much joint damage as possible. Everything actually feels really good taking this approach aside from constantly being out of breath. I’m getting sore from these workouts for sure but it’s a lot easier to recover from though the soreness can be pretty intense the following day and after that. I do seem to stay a lot more fresh and were covered in general from taking this lighter short rest approach though. Once again the goal is creating a training stimulus that helps me progress for the traits that I’m looking to and prove on right now but not so much that I can’t recover for the next sessions. Check out the video for the details!
