    Upper body session today to finish this training week. Tomorrow I’m going to judge the NABBA Austrian Championships! I’m already very excited!

    Hammer strength incline press
    Chest supported T-bar row
    Close grip bench press
    Cable overhead extensions
    Handcuff side laterals
    Hexbar shrugs

    Felt really nice to have a good pump in my whole upper body!

    Whenever you train just make sure you are hydrated and have some carbs and protein before you hit the gym.

    It’s very person dependent. Train whenever you feel comfortable and what fits best to your personal life. The only thing i wouldn’t do is switching training time to often. You need to find a biorhythm and it’s important that you can evaluate your progress in training not to change variables to often when it’s possible.

    Dumbell shoulder press
    Dips
    Dumbell overhead extensions

    May 20, 2019 at 7:51 pm in reply to: Warm up sets & working sets

    I think it’s very indivdual. At the beginning of my workout I need more warm up sets and later on I just perform 1 feel set or go dricetly into my working set. I.g. in a push session on my first movement I do 4-5 warm up sets for chest, shoulders it’s 2-3 and then later on for tri’s it’s one most of the time. It also depends if it’s a compound lift or an iso movement. Compund lifts need more warm up sets to get used to the complex movement.

    You need to feel ready to hit a heavy load but not do to much that your warm up sets will take something aways from your max effort sets!

    Last pull session today with my buddy @Kevin Stütz before he is competing in the Austrian championships on saturday. He looks amazing! We did a lot of iso stuff today. Still a good load but Kevin was leaving 1-2 reps in the tank that we are not doing to much muscle damage and deload him to much!

    Hammer Strength iso lateral pulldown
    Chest supported T-bar row
    Hammer strength dy row
    Hammer strength high row
    Cable pullovers superset with dumbell rows
    Hammer strength biceps curls

    Rest day today! Need to recover because tomorrow I’m going to train back with my friend @Kevin Stütz. It will be his last pull session before the Austrian Championships and he already looks insance. His bodyfat and skin structure is unbelievable! Can’t wait to see him tomorrow! Training with guys like him motivates me so much for my upcomming season! He is my role model when it comes to work ethic!

    For me a belt is very important for my heavy pulls because it helps me create a lot of intra abdominal presse and i can lift lot heavier loads. It’s person dependent.

    For your waist i think it can also help not to let your waist expand during your lifts. Like Clare said in this case i would use one of those neoprene belts.
