Paul Oneid – Wk 9, Day 3-5

[wa-wps]

DELOAD!! If you don't need one, you're likely not training hard enough. I use my deload days (every 3rd session of each movement) to focus on technique and to get some blood flow into the muscles. This was 225x5x3sets, followed by light dumbbell, band and body weight accessories. Nothing to failure, just focusing on getting a good pump and getting out. Doesn't have to be fancy, it just has to work! #deload #bench #swole #chestday #pumpcity #powerlifter #powerlifting #rawpowerlifting #dynamobarbell #crossfitotown #powerrackstrength #teamprs #1020life #inzer #inzeradvanceddesigns #teampump #therebuild #dontcallitacomeback #progressisaprocess #onedayatatime #theyhateuscausetheyanus #offseason #hotpam #barbellcanucks #ottawa #ottawastrong

I had knee arthroscopy on Dec 4, 2015 to remove a torn meniscus, as well as a partial lateral release to loosen up my IT band. Training is in full OFF-SEASON mode.  Next meet will be June 18, 2016 where I will be competing at 198lbs for the first time.

  • Single leg glute bridge – x10ea
  • Glute bridge iso hold – x:30s

I implement 10/20/Life a little bit differently than the other team members. I prefer to work off percentages, even in the off-season as I find it keeps me honest and gives me a specific goal for each training session. Weights are light and I am trying to get my work capacity up. This is the beauty of 10/20/Life – It is a philosophy, NOT a cookie cutter program!
