Hi, as people on this site seem more interested in your personal training regime than supporting their troops can you please give me some advice on training for my 100km Sahara trek for help 4 heroes, I've never undertaken an adventure like this. I've recently given up smoke and drink and want to get in shape enough to trek 7km a day in hell on earth conditions! I'd appreciate any input! Many thanks.

Aaron

i am going to start my training log on here and update each workout so i can keep a log of all times,weights,reps etc. and look back on them to see my gains.
1st thing is im not overly fit but fairly fit. used to play loads of football until i did the cruciate,and since then slow progress.
im 5'10" and 12st7 as of today.
my 1x rep maxes are as follows
bench 110kg
s press 60kg
squat 80kg (low as my knee is not strong)
dedlift 125kg

my aims by 2014 are;
bench 140kg
press 85kg
squat 100kg
deadlift 175kg

i sterted wendler strength a few months back but didnt really stick to it and also do crossfit but not seriously. i intend on implementing both a lot more serious and today i started getting myself back into training after 2 weeks off gym and a week of sicknes but here goes.

500m run as warmup
500m row as warmup with 1st 100 arms only,2nd 100 legs only, last 300 both
10 minutes stretching.

weights were light today
3 sets of 60kg bench press x 12 reps,
3 sets of 60kg push press x 1 rep
2 sets max rep pullups

then as crossfit was a rest day on main page i did a modified 'helen' from 2 days ago
3 rounds as fast as possible of;
400m run
21x 20kg dumbbell swings
12x 60 kg lat pulls (pull ups if possible)
time was 14.28

Would love some help, please. Lazy fu*ker and ashamed to say it, but I love our boys for what they do! Will be trekking the Sahara (100km) nov 2014 in Aid of Help 4 Heroes. No exercise experience, I know cardio is probably a good thing, that's about the extent of my knowledge! You seem very serious so all advice will be taken seriously, I'm not here to waste your time!!!

Thanks

Aaron

wendlers 5-3-1 is a very goood lifting programme for those whe dont want to plateau and who want to keep improving strength.
there is 4 wendler lifts; 1. BENCH PRESS
2. SQUAT
3. OVERHEAD SHOULDER PRESS (in front of head)
4. DEADLIFT

the programme works like this. first you need to calculate your 1 rep max and all the above lifts then
WEEK 1, 75% x 5 reps 80% x 5 reps 85% x 5+ (you must do as many as possible on this set and must be 5 or more reps)

WEEK 2. 80% X 3 REPS 85%X 3 REPS 90% X 3 REPS (as many as possible but must be 3 or more reps)

WEEK 3. 85% X 5 REPS 90% X 3 REPS 95% X 1 REP (as many as possible but must be 1 or more reps)

you do 1x wendler lift each time you train and ideally for simplicity you should take 4 weeks per cycle and do 2 x assistance exercises along side the wendler and each trime you start a new cycle up the weight by 2.5kgs

an example of a wendler would be this. for ease im saying 100kg is my 1 rep max

week 1 75kg x 5 reps. 80 kg x 5 reps. 85kg x 5+reps
week2 80kg x 3 reps. 85kg x 3 reps. 90kg x 3+ reps
week3 85kg x 5 reps 90kg x 3 reps 95kg x 1+ reps


the start of the next cycle would be

week 1 77.5kg x 5 reps. 82.5kg x 5 reps. 87.5kg x 5+ reps
week 2 82.5kg x 5 reps. 87.5kg x 5 reps .................. and so on

as well as the bench press also do 2x assistance execrcises like;
3 sets 10 reps of incline dumb bell press
3 serts 10 reps chest flyes
