Weekend Workouts

OK, so I don't do dip and I really don't care about your sexual preferences, but I do like Jesse Ventura's bad ass, high testosterone attitude.

The world needs more men with testicular fortitude and less emo, skinny jeans wearing, boy toys.

Instead of increasing your odds of mouth cancer though, why not sack up and hit the squat rack to become your own version of a sexual tyrannosaurus?

Here is the training session I did to prepare for the Alberta's Strongest Man contest. A true celebration of testosterone if there ever was one.

Watch

• 120 mins

• joint circles and such

Dynamic Warm-Up

• empty barbell complex

A1 Front Squat

• sets of 1
• worked up to a max single, meaning I got buried in the squat rack

A2 Back Squat

• Sets of 2
• Immediately after each set of front squats, I repositioned under the bar and did the same or more amount of reps with the back squat.
• This is a great way to sneak in volume and reap the benefits of both front and back squats.

B1 Back Squat

• 315 x 5 x 3

B2 Deadlift

• 225 x 2, 315 x 2, 405 x 2, 455 x 1, 505 x 1
• I am tapering down for Alberta's Strongest Man on June 18th so I didn't want to push the deadlifts any heavier. Otherwise I would have kept adding weight until failure.

• 4 x 10

Here is a good example of a nice and deep front squat. Do this, then rack the bar, take 3 deep breaths, and then back squat the same weight for reps. It will make a sexual tyrannosaurus out of you brother!
