Thursday March 25

My friend and I are going to try a new routine. With the new breakdown, we will hit a body part only once per week. We had been doing everything, except legs, twice per week. I hope the new breakdown will allow for better rest and give us the time to focus on every bodypart fully. Officially, we are starting on Monday, but we are kicking it off today. Here is the new breakdown:

Monday:
Chest and Abs

Tuesday:
Back

Wednesday:
Legs and Abs

Thursday:
Shoulders

Friday:
Arms and Abs

Sat:
Rest

Sun:
Rest

I have not been getting a shoulder workout for weeks, since we had it sceduled with legs. Just not enough time. Alright I am goping to post today's work.

Well, pwolf has a new routine. I have to watch the order I work my body parts, because of my bowling. I learned the hard way that chest on a bowling day does not work. Plus, after a leg day, I need several days to rest them before I can bowl at a high level. I try to hit the exercises I can with the beast, but it is not easy.

Thursday April 1st

Shoulder Day

Warmups
Seated Rear Delt Machine
30x12,30x10,40x8

Workout
Seated Rear Delt Machine
60x6,70x6,75x6 (I have a feeling that it was more than 75 because the 1/2 plate we added came from another machine)
Front Plate Raises
35x8,35x8,35x8 (I think next week I will venture higher)
Dumbell Military Press
40x8,45x8,45x8 (Still shaky, but improving)

Standing Wrist Rolls
3 sets @ 10 lbs (A set is one trip down forward and one trip down reverse)

Cardio
Rowing
5:01mins 1211meters

I LOVED the row machine. If I would not have done the wrist roll, then I could have gotten out even more in the 5 mins. Next week I am going for 10 mins and see what level I can sustain for that. This completed the workout, but pwolf66 was doing some 1 rep deadlifts, so I joined in.

1st attempt deadlift 275........nailed it fairly easily.
2nd attempt deadlift 295.......nailed it with a little to spare.

I stopped there. Next week I may take a crack at 300+, maybe as much as 325. We shall see.

No Workout

Damn! No workout buddies today and I can't get any relief at work anyway. Smile

I am going to move my chest to tomorrow and do 2 Back exercises, which is my normal Tuesday workout. I wish I had a gym at home or an outside gym membership, because I hate to miss days when I don't have to.

Chest (since I missed yesterday)

Warmup
Barbell Bench Press
115x12,135x10,155x8,185x4,225x1

Workout
Barbell Bench Press
225x4,225x3,225x3 I really wanted to get 4 each set. Smile
Incline Dumbells
60x6,60x3 I had to stop, bucause my shoulder was straight failing on these. Smile
Pec Deck Fly
130x8,150x7,150x5 I guess the bench took more from me than I thought.
Decline Bench on Pec Deck Machine
210x6,210x5 OUCH, alot harder on the 2nd set.

Deadlifts w/pwolf66 and Club trainer
worked with these guys to get the best form and managed to do 2 reps of 315 in form. I felt pretty good about that, since my best was last week at 295. SmileSmile

Cardio
Row Machine
9:59 time 2389 meters (split in 2 and 3 mins sections)

Not as strong as last week.Smile I am still having some issues with my breathing from my cold. I seemed to be fighting for air after about 90 secs each time. I am still working on comfort with the exercise. I have to slow down at times, because I feel like I am falling off of the seat. I still love the machine and will keep working it.

Tomorrow.... LEGS.Smile

Wednesday April 7

Leg Day

Working out with the club manager is like having a personal trainer with you. He pushes you hard and tries to keep your form straight. Not to mention the man is a BEAST.

Warmups
Barbell Squats
135x12,135x10,185x8,275x4,315x1

Workout
Barbell Squats
325x6,325x6,325x6
Nautilus Leg Curls
180x8,190x8,200x8,210x8
Calf Raises on squat machine
500x10,500x10 (Boy did these feel heavy after that squat workout.)

At the end of my squat workout I wanted to try something heavy. I put on 405 and did one rep. I felt like I got the lift off, but pwolf said I did not get my rear down enough. Next week I will try again and hopefully get it right and for 2 reps.

I wanted to do cardio and some abs, but the time had flown by and I was wasted. Next time...

Row Machine
59 secs 368 meters

I felt like I was going to yackSmile after that rowing. It took me at least an hour to really get settled down after that. I had no idea just how intense that minute would be. Now I know how much it sucks, but you know we will have to do it again.Smile

The last three days have been brutal. I love all the weight I have moved, but I feel like I have been run over by a truck.

Tricep T-Bar pushdown
50x10,90x8

Workout

Overhead Cable Curl
20x10,30x8,40x8,50x8,65x3(oops!Smile,wrong jump),55x6,55x6 (This is 1st time for this move, I like it.)
Chin-ups
1@BW,2@BW,2@BW,3@BW w/little push at top from pwolf66Smile

Rope Cable Pushdowns
115x6,115x6,115x6,115x6 (I did an extra set, because I really want to move this exercise higher)
Dips
6@BW,6@BW

Calf Raises on Squat Machine
500x10,500x10,500x10 (I squeezed haard at the top of each today and I could really feel the difference)

Cardio
Row Machine
59secs 351 meters

I was a little disappointed with the distance in the rowing at the end. I did more distance yesterday. I think I tried to pace a little today and paid the price. I hope to get this up near 400 meters next week.

I was not very impressed with my bicep portion of today's workout. I hope that my failings were do to the intensity of my other workouts this week, but I can not tell for sure. I will say that my elbow is holding up pretty well, all things considered.

TGIF.........

How is the short burst of cardio after lifting working for you? Have you seen any fat loss? I am thinking of incorperating something like this, because I need to get more cardio in. There are just not enough hours in the day, so after some of my less strenous WOs, I wanted to try this.

I just started it last week. I will let you know how it helps after about a month. I can say I get a serious pump out of that 60secs. This is my way to squeeze a little cardio in with my tight timeline. I even do it after the strenous ones, I do not get as far, but the burn is definately there.
