Cycle 1, Week 1/Week 2

Bench Press
1x3 60kg
1x3 67.5kg
1x10 75kg PR (1RM 100kg)

Military BBB
5x10 30kg

DB Rows
5x10 22.5kg

Deadlift
1x5 75kg
1x5 85kg
1x9 97.5kg

Abs
Hanging leg raises and crunches.

Notes:
I decided to do the last lift of week 1 together with the first lift of week 2 at the same time since I will be away for a couple of days this week.
Pressed a new PR in bench, but after the BBB assistance I was quite beat when doing the deadlifts.
Maybe I should have done the deadlifts before the assistance. Will try that next time

Cycle 1, Week 1

Military Press
1x5 37.5kg
1x5 42.5kg
1x9 47.5kg PR (1RM 62,5kg)

Bench BBB
5x10 45kg
 
Chins
5 sets, 7, 6, 6, 5, 4 reps at bodyweight

Notes:
Military press felt heavy, but I managed 9 reps. I had a bad night sleep so it was no big surprise.
Short term goal for the chins is 5x10, but I was quite happy with the results.

Cycle 1, Week 1

Squat
1x5 65kg
1x5 75kg
1x11 85kg PR (1RM 117,5kg)

Deadlift BBB
5x10 40kg

Leg curl
5x10 15kg

Notes:
Squat felt great. Could probably have pushed a rep or two more but decided to end it att eleven reps.
I dialed down the weights on the accessory work just to get a feel for them. The deadlift BBB sets felt a bit too easy so I will go a bit heavier next time.
My hams are incredibly weak, so 15kg was enough. Hopefully that will go up in time.

Cycle 1, Week 1

Bench Press
1x5 55kg
1x5 62.5kg
1x10 72.5kg PR (1RM 97,5kg)

Military Press
5x10 27.5kg

DB Row
5x10 22.5kg

Notes:
Bench felt fairly easy and I ended with a PR! I have had some problems with pain in my left shoulder but it worked out fine.
I supersetted the assistance work and I felt quite tired afterwards. Will see how I feel tomorrow I guess.

Well, I changed my mind during the weekend. I will start doing straight up 531/BBB three days per week.

Day 3

Bench Press 5x10 @ 50% TM
Chins 5x10

Day 4
Deadlift 5/3/1

Cycle 1 starts today with the following training maxes:
Bench:   82.5kg
Squat:    97.5kg
Military: 55kg
Deadlift: 112.5kg

Welcome to my quest for Strength and Aesthetics!

I'm about to start following Wendler's 5/3/1 with BBB accessory work, but on three days per week instead of four.
I will run at least two cycles before reevaluating how this works out in practice. If it turns out to be too much I will do the fourth workout the following week instead.

The plan now is:

Monday:
Bench 5/3/1
Squat BBB
Military BBB (3x10)
DB Rows

Wednesday:
Deadlift 5/3/1
Military 5/3/1
Chins
Abs

Friday:
Squat 5/3/1
Bench BBB
SLDL
Dips

This blog will be mostly for myself to be able to keep some notes of the progress etc.
