Hey Everybody,
I'm coming off of a bad groin/adductor strain that is still healing, and I've decided to finally dedicate myself to serious training. Reading through the logs found Tactical Barbell and thought it sounded like exactly what I need. I used to do a lot of bodyweight work and Infinite Intensity, and will be combining TB and II in the future once my leg is fully healed. I'm hoping to get back into muay thai in a few months too.
I'm going with a modified cluster with the Gladiator template since I can't do any leg work right now:
Bench Press 159 1RM
Military Press 122 1RM
Bodyweight Pullups 6 reps max.
All pretty sad numbers, but have to start somewhere! I'll be doing some additional shoulder exercises focusing on stability since 2 presses will be pretty strenuous.
Just started on Monday at 70% of 1RM and everything felt great so far.
New 1RM after testing today 5/20/2015 after 9 weeks
Bench Press 210
SOHP 170
Bodweight Pullups 11 reps. Was able to do 2 pullups with 35lbs in the backpack.
