Re: Training Goals 2012I know that feel bro *sigh*(Original post by Smack)
There is also the problem of spending too much time dicking around exercising, getting a pump and using all sorts of assistance lifts than actual hard training that is actually responsible for strength gains.
So the first goal is to be stronger this time next year than I am now. This includes the subgoal of keeping using tried and tested programming rather than wasting time finding out that whatever I thought up in my head doesn't actually work.

Re: Training Goals 2012
With moving to London in October I screwed up my diet and lifting for a bit so haven't progressed in my lifts whatsoever over the last few months. Missed my 2011 goals. But one good thing that came out of it was that I have dropped 8kg (mostly fat) and managed to keep my strength.
Goals for 2012:
5RM
Squat - 160kg
Bench - 100kg
Deads - 200kg
OHP - 70kg
P Cleans - 90kg
1RM
Squat - 170-180kg
Bench - 120kg
Deads - 230-250kg
OHP - 80kg
P Cleans - 100kg
Try to get bigger and stronger while gaining minimal fat. Even losing bf% if possible.
Maybe a bit optimistic but lets see if I can do it. -
Re: Training Goals 2012
My goals have completely changed from last year!
Weightlifting/strength goals
- I have 2 weeks to qualify for the Norwegian Champs with a total of 103kg in the 75kg class. Aim is 45kg snatch/58kg clean and jerk. Gonna go all out at my next comp to get it.
- To qualify for 2013 Norwegian Champs
- Snatch at least 50kg
- Clean and jerk at least 65kg
- Front squat at least 80kg for a single
- Squat at least 120kg for a single
- Do a totally unassisted pullup

- Possibly get into the 69kg category...haven't decided yet

Re: Training Goals 2012
Happy New Year

My goals are mainly just to build more muscle, get more aesthetic and obviously lifts will increase. Not too bothered about numbers but I guess here's a few:
50kg per hand dumbbell bench press for sets of 8-10 (max dumbbells are 50kg
gonna have to maintain at this level and move onto the barbell)
50kg per hand incline dumbbell bench press for sets of 8-10
50kg per hand dumbbell shoulder press (seated) for sets of 8-10
Rack the whole lat pulldown machine (100kg) for sets of 8-10, then do pullups with lots of weight and lots of reps
250kg - 300kg deadlift for 5 reps
50kg one arm dumbbell row for sets of 8-10
150kg barbell row for sets of 8-10
Some may take more time than others eg. I'm a few weeks away from 50kg one arm dumbbell row but 50kg per hand dumbbell shoulder press may take all year. -
Re: Training Goals 2012
Main goal is consistency in diet and training. No more excuses for slacking off, I'll do bodyweight exercises and running, if I don't have access to weights or a boxing gym.
Commit to a healthy diet (paleo as a starting point).
Get to 60kg (now at 66kg) and maintain, and get better fat/lean mass ratio.
Complete a Tough Mudder.
Get stronger in all lifts, but focus on learning the oly lifts properly.
Not really that bothered with numbers, but +100kg squat (BS 75kg, FS 70kg) and deadlift (85kg) would be nice. In terms of oly, I don't really know what kind of goals would be realistic... at least for the spring/summer training will most likely be all about technique.. -
Re: Training Goals 2012
My goal is to at least get the following before march this year...
Get myself down to 69kg and have a herculean physique ( I ***** will)
As far as the numbers are concerned...
Goal by the end of march:
BP: 120
FS: 140-150
DL: 200 (for a single)
Not much worried about OHP, that lift goes to hell for now.. -
Re: Training Goals 2012that front squat is far to ambitious, i take it you'd be able to bs 180+ by march lol(Original post by ibysaiyan)

I don't care about numbers too much but a deadlift comfortably over 200 would be nice 
drop to 10%

gonna have to maintain at this level and move onto the barbell)
