50 Basic Strongman: Week 6 Day 2

Lower Day

I haven’t worked out for the last few days. So, this week will only have 2 workouts. Today was my lower day, rather than events. I’m not too worried about it because I haven’t been rotating Farmers and Sandbag the last few weeks.

Paused Front Squats

Work up to a 1RM over seven sets. Pause in hole for one second.

Warmup

Work

  1. 135x1
  2. 185x1
  3. 225x1
  4. 245x1
  5. 265x1
  6. 295x1
  7. 315x1 PR

18" Deadlift

Work up to a 2RM over five sets.

Warmup

Work

  1. 225x2
  2. 365x2
  3. 405x2
  4. 455x2
  5. 475x2 PR

I’m pretty happy with these PRs. I feel like I could have gone heavier with both, but it’s probably good that I didn’t so I have room to continue setting PRs as the program continues.

Now, on to the second half of Basic Strongman.
