Hanley

9 sets of trying not to drown.

Hanley

A12, Week 3, Day 4

Only got 10 of the 15 sets done, had to cut the assistance to 3 instead of 5, and only got 3 of 5 done for gunz too because I got stung for time

Hanley

A12, Week 3, Day 5

Smashed the bench yesterday.

No dips becaues I was wiped out.

Supposed to OHP today, and only be a day behind, but I got the worst cramps of my life and work up at 3am with a chocolate laser that didn't go out until... well it still feels like I'm getting punched with low hooks to the stomach now @ 9.20pm KLIA time.

Hanley

It's 9.20pm in KLIA right now and I'm sitting in an exec lounge.

My flight from Bali landed at 7.15pm, and I've another 2 and a bit hours to kill before my 12 hour flight to London, which arrives in at 5.35am normal time.

Then I'm in London for the day... Out about 3pm and back to Dublin around 4.30pm.

Hoping to get out to squat this evening so I only miss 2 days of A12 and can get back on track properly tomorrow.

'Mare of a journey home, but on the plus side I'll get to hang out for the day with one of my best mates who moved to London at xmas.

Lemonade from lemons!

Hanley

...made it to Landan. Row to myself, slept like a boss. Might be good to train tonight.

Hanley

Didn't train last night. Worked instead.

Back onto A12 at Week 4, Day 4 today. Will do day 3 - squats, toniht in flyefit.

Had a very strong session this afternoon.

Hanley

ASC Week 4, Day 5

Smashed the bench out first thing this morning before tutoring in elite.

Apparently I could be looking at 120-130 for on the minute triples by the end of this. That'd be snazzy as fook.

Hanley

A12 Week 4, Day 3 (catch up...)

Squats were good - 150kg 6x8, 1x2 w/ 3 min recovery, and DL 150 6x6

Hip felt a bit **** towards the end of th squats, but less **** than last time.

A12, Week 5, Day 1 - Back in gear

Smashed todays shoulder / gunzz workout real hard.

The 10 minute EMOM swings with 32kg going for 16 was not nice tho.

Hanley

A12, Week 5, Day 2 - smashed.

Benching and pulldowns killed. Assistance chest destroyed. Dips pissed all over. And complex murdered.

Such a good session that tomorrow can only be ****!

Hanley

12x 20s on 60s off intervals done on the C2.

Was holding 1m24s splits for a lot of them, and hit > 110m for most.

That's happy.

Do you have any issues training shoulders and then chest the following day?

I reckon I'd be stronger if I wasn't doing it, but that's not the goal of the program.

So I guess I'd say it's working pretty well. I horsed around 37.5kg DBs yesterday on an incline for 37.5kg 4x10, 1x15 AFTER 95kg 15x6 bench and pulldowns.

Do you have any plans to get on a competition platform this year?
Very impressive work in here though all the same - that's a great 2k time you hit last month considering the lack of concept II work in here generally.

Fleh.

Too much time, effort and stress involved in getting ready for a comp for me at the moment man.

Appreciate the words on the C2 time too - it was actually about 20s off my best too if I remember correctly. Will take a crack at another one in about 6 weeks and see what happens

Hanley

A12, Week 5, Day 4

Missed Day 3 yesterday because of work stuff. Apparently I can't just do 2-3 hour days all the time. Will catch it this evening in a couple of hours.

Overhead work today was awesome. The press was strong, and hit 149 outta 150 reps on the shoulder complex. Which I'm still p1ssed about.

Continuning to lean up and see good progress there. These'll be the last shots I post until the "afters" are done.

Are you gonna do legit before/afters, and then the facebook spam before/afters?

I've those exact poses taken on day 1 in that lighting, and fat facebook different lighting bloated like a pig photos too

Jay was actually quite insistent I get legit before shots, just to shut up all the haters he's already got bashing the program.

Just the standard mud slinging that goes on with facebook picture comments when someone puts up a before/after.

A12, Week 5, Day 5

Good but tough bench session. 100kg fell strongly.

Managed to incline DB bench 40k 4x10, 1x13, wit the DBs touching my chest on each set. And smashed BW+17.5kg for 10s on dips.

Hanley

10x Reverse Lunges

*1 minute rest*

Then;

13x 20s on / 60s off intervals on a C2 Model B w/ PM4 that was still running like new. What a machine.

Hanley

A12, Week 6, Day 1

Good military pressing day. Strong. Rotating DB press went to 27.5kg ad it was pretty brutal.

Gunzz were ok.

Had a great weekend with Sarah @ the idfpa single lifts. She did a 132.5kg squat and 140kg DL. Will write more about it some other time.

Racing out to coach now.

Hanley

A12, Week 6, Day 2

3% of my cals were carbs yesterday. I suffered today.

Ended up hitting 105kg x6 EMOM 13minutes, and then finished off with a few broken sets for 87 outta a potential 90 reps.

Smashed 5x10 w/ 20kg Dips, got to do chins, and beasted out 42.5kg incline DBs 4x10, 1x12.

Good day. But tough.

Hanley

A12, Week 6, Day 3

Spent about 40 minutes trying to get my hips set

Did 3x10 HBBS @ 150kg and stopped cos my hip was starting to hurt

Pulled 160kg 3x6 and stopped cos my hip was starting to hurt again

Did about 1/2 the work I was supposed to, but more than I've done for the last few weeks so all is good.

Bar speed on the squats and DLs was great in fairness.

A12, Week 6, Day 4

Overhead pressed strongly yesterday and the gun pump was unreal.

Hanley

A12, Week 6, Day 5

Managed 107.5kg 12 x6 EMOM +another 10 or so reps over the remaining 3 minutes. VERY tough.

Beasted out some 45kg DBs for 2x10 on the inclines, and dipped 22.5kg 5x10 too, which was pretty sweet.

Also accumulated 91 chins in the block.

Good day.

Galway tonight for a stag, back to Dublin for an engagement party tomorrow, then a couple of nights in Seafield with Sarah. Nice few days lined up

What about your gains! Are you going to "take it handy" or go balls deep and get back on the wagon?

Only had 2 servings of carbs today and very little fat, saving THOSE kcals for beer.

Then I'm moving my Sunday cheat day to tomorrow so I can enjoy food.
