Tuesday Assistance and Clint's Max Squat Work

We had to train today as I had a meeting tomorrow at 3pm, that I just can't get out of.  I wanted to take Clint down to Skiba's Barbell Club so he can get used to the monolift.  Clint will be competing in his first meet December 10th, the WNPF Sarge McCray meet down in Bordentown, NJ.  So we had to settle on a Tuesday training day for this week.

My training looked like this:

GHR's
4 sets x 12 reps

Ankle Weight Leg Curls
3 sets x 100 reps

Ab Pulldowns
4 sets x 120 x 15 reps

Back Attack Machine
2 sets x 90 x 10 reps
2 sets x 135 x 10 reps

Sit Ups On GHR
4 sets x 15 reps

GHR's
Did some additional GHR's at the end of training to help Clint with his

Clints day was quite good as he squatted a PR 410, then we took some reverse band work for him.  He took reverse band singles with 410, 460, and 500.  He really wanted to hit a 500 reverse band squat today so I let him.  The he deadlifted afterwords, failed with 565, hitched with 545, and smoked 495.  He asked if he would have gotten whites with his 545, I told him not even if Ray Charles was one of the judges.  I know he has that weight and I told him not to be discouraged as the reverse band work zapped him.  Last wave in his training cycle he pulled the 565 easier than he pulled the 545 today.  He finished with some GHR's, then we hit Burger Express to refuel Carteret Style.

As always it was good to see Henri Skiba of Skiba's Barbell Club.  He looks like hes getting some lifters in the club, and he has 3 monolifts, 2 GHR's, a 45 degree back extension, 2 reverse hypers, 3 quality benches, and more bars than you can imagine in this place.  If you are looking for a place to lift in the Central / East Jersey area call Henri Skiba at 732-598-9369, and get your ass to Carteret.
