trainin 7.5 and 7.7.2012

Work completed two days ago.

Been off coaching baseball for 4 hours a day for the last three weeks, so no training during that time.  The boys finally lost, so I'm back at it.

7.5
Squat x2 @8 + -5%: worked up to 330kg and crapped, one fatigue set.  Felt very heavy.

2count bench + chain x2@8.5: reached 175kg plus a bunch of chain and was done, one fatigue set

Floor press x5@9 + -5%: reached 200kg (much to my surprise) and did three fatigue sets.

Floor press was surprisingly good.  Left shoulder barked through the bench -- hurts when I reach back behind mid-line at level arm.  Feels like mild tendonitis, so not worried -- lots of fungo hits, more than likely.  The surprise is my right arm was fine after throwing probably a thousand pitches over three weeks.

7.7
Deadlift x2@8 + -5%: reached 275kg and did two fatigue sets -- felt very good

Incline x5@9 + -5%: only reached 100kg with my balky shoulder, but the weight went up well; got three fatigue sets

Pendlay rows x5@9 + -5%: I need more rowing, so I did the work and some extra; reached a whole bunch of weight (forgot to write it down) and did three fatigue sets; also through up some reverse bodyweight rows using a 2" rope from the ceiling at a negative angle (feet higher than head) -- did four sets of 10

Felt great today.  Great to be back at it.
