It's Friday in the only warm part of the country. Everywhere else it's frozen on Wednesday.
Monster Ultra Red prior -- I shouldn't, but they're delicious. It's essentially the Zero Ultra with a little punch flavor; you can still taste the grapefruit citrus flavor, but there's a little more. I like it.
Assault + Athletic Greens, dynamic work, and Prowler pushes for 40 yards x 8 before resistance training. Man, I was sucking wind hard enough to reverse weather. Wow. I never did really recover, and sucked wind through the whole session. I wonder if it had anything to do with the caffeine, but I probably should have taken a hit of albuterol beforehand. Might still. Even simple DB work had me wondering if I would faint.
1-arm barbell row, 2 sets to warm up, 4x10
Hi-row to low, 3x15 with a bunch, squeeze at the bottom (and suck wind)
Chest-supported row, 3x10 with a whole lot, careful to keep shoulders from gliding forward (and wind sucking)
DB snatches with heavy DBs, 3x10 (and, well, you know)
Straight-arm lat pulldown with hold using the cable business, 3x10
DB shrugs, light DBs with 3s hold at the top, 3x10
Wandered out.
I seem to be leaning out a little, which is the idea. Tired of jiggling, even a little, and the hill sprints and prowler flu will do me good. I need to be in better GPP shape anyway.
We're still dealing with the preliminary discovery phase of the latest disaster. I'll report when I know more, in case anyone besides Milda and Bob actually care.
Hope all are well. Hang tough and work hard, please.
If you want a great conditioning outing, I highly recommend hiking up Mt. Woodson (the steep side). The views at the top are well worth it. The only drawback is walking back down, which I have to do backwards the entire way or risk popping my knees.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of the warmest part of the country, we have Santa Anas blowing in early next week. Buy a few extra ice cube trays and start freezing them now. Mid-80s by Wednesday down here, though you might have to suffer hitting only 80 up where you are. Almost sounds criminal, no?
