09 Oct LISA GUGGISBERG-Deload post meet and preparing for offseason work.

I took the entire week off from any squat, bench, deadlift work and completely deloaded to rest and reset the body and mind.  Not in this for the short term, in this for the long run.  There is no need to go hard every single week and especially coming off a 10 week training cycle that lead up to a meet.  No need to wreck the body for minimal benefits.

Doesn’t mean I became a complete fat f*&ck. I did make it into the gym twice this week to push some blood into the muscles to help with recovery.

Leg work

Light leg press 4 x 20

Reverse V Squat machine 4 x 12

Lunges 4 x 20 each leg

Dumbbell RDL 2 x 20 drop set last set until failure.

McGill Big 3

Back work

McGill pull ups 3 x 10

Standing lat pull downs 4 x 12

Barbell rows 3 x 15

Hammer strength fixed pulldown 4 x 12

Seated row 4 x 12

Dumbbell rows 3 x 20

Heavy shrugs 3 x 15

I am starting to formulate my offseason program which will run 11 weeks.  I am going to run some ideas by Brian and see what he thinks but I am pretty excited about this offseason leading up to Arnold prep.
