Training Log: Entry 2055
AM WORKOUT
Axle bench
5xAxle
5x75
5x115
5x165
3x215
3x245
11x275
13x215
Notes: The warm-ups felt heavy, and then that set of 11x275 came out of nowhere. I was planning on 8, so it was a pleasant surprise. It also meant I pretty much blew my wad and had nothing left for that set of 215, but I'd rather have a stronger showing with the heavier weight. In ROM related news, I can easily get my left foot in the benching position that allows for leg drive. I'm still not willing to use much, but it's nice to get back in the groove.
Dips (upright)
1x45
1x25
1x15
3 way shoulder circuit 20lbs
3x15
NG chins (various widths)
14x25
2x15
Notes: Sets betweeen sets, as usual. Got what felt like a touch of tendinitis in the left elbow at the start of the workout, but was able to move around it as needed with these.
PM Workout
On top of my physical therapy, I did 1 set of 50 walking lunges (50 per leg, so 100 total). Left patella felt a little achy at the end, but graft and knee tendinitis was fine.
General notes: Woke up at 191.8. Ate a little dirtier for lunch (more Taco Bell). Weight and bodyfat seem to be moving the way I want, so I'm getting a little looser with the diet. Getting a little stir crazy trainingwise, might start doing more 2 a days.
Sweet bench press. And that picture posted recently shows some insane upper-body musculature. Didn't anyone tell you that you're supposed to look WEAKER after getting injured?
ReplyDeleteI appreciate that man. There is some smoke and mirrors going on with that photo, as I'm leaning so far forward into the mirror trying to get the broken capillaries into focus, but the high volume and eating is paying off a bit too. I'm contemplating making the sub title of my manual on training post ACL re-construction "How to develop a jacked upperbody and a bulletproof lower back", haha.
