Nice vid! You do know that NSCA is using a newer edition, right? I'm sure the differences are minor, but just thought I'd let ya know.

@ Rob - Yes, just a little food haha.

Comp Goals:

-Hit bodyweight of 200-205 before
-Incline log 230/16 reps+
-18 inch deadlift - 650+
-Farmer Holds - 50s+
-Stones - Complete them all

And of course - Win!

@ Dave - Thanks man. Yeah, I spoke with some NSCA reps at a conference in the spring in regards to the text. They said it shouldn't make a much of a difference. Thanks for the notice though!

Wild Turkey 101 will add a minimum of 20lbs to your deads and leave you with enough green to get another tub of metobolic drive. good post.

Chase Karnes said...

@ Sam - Very true.

Danny said...

Is your training still similar to one of your previoys blog? Just curious Chase..

Chase Karnes said...

@ Danny - Actually it is quite a bit different. My main gym lifts are:

Powerclean
Rack pulls
Front Squat
RDL
Incline Bench
Push Press
Chin ups
Dips
GHR
Rollouts

Then event day is the actual events in some form or fashion.

Every main lift either has a pretty good carryover to the events or is a good accessory lift for the events.

Rep ranges vary but I am using some 5-3-1, 3x3, 3x5, 3x6-8, 4x10, 4x12

Rest is usually about 2 minutes right now.

Hope that helps!
