Scott Paltos has been doing my programming since March 2015 for both powerlifting and physique. Read back at previous training logs to see what my off-season contained to prep for both PL and physique. May - September we coined #creatingamonster to bring a bigger package to the stage. With physique comps done for 2016, we will transition back to strength work in preparation for the Arnold.

Continuing with the ramping up plan.  I wanted to lay out a little more detail as to the way things have been laid out.

Monday - heavy squat/dead. Deads aren't done every week as Scott and I both believe that deadlift training doesn't need to be heavy every week.  Personally, I respond well to that.

Tuesday - heavy bench. This day has some tricep builder work in there too with back and shoulder accessories.

Thursday - Lower body accessories.  Sometimes some speed work, or a squat/pause variation. It's a builder usually that is used to bring up any weak point. Then usually some BB work for accessories.

Friday - Upper accessory, a press variation and shoulders.

Saturday - if i can fit it in, we will do a "pump" day.  Bands, ropes, etc. for some pump work, blood flow, recovery etc.

Some coaching tips about my squat: My stance is moderate. Yes, I seen a lot of girls who have moved to a close stance, some even very close.  But for right now I feel good in this position.  Not as wide as with gear, but a comfortable just outside shoulder width.  I'm back in my flats with a lower bar placement on my shoulders. I feel more comfortable and stable and can recover better if I get out of position.
