Training Log: Entry 2112


AM WORKOUT

Seated chain suspended buffalo bar good mornings
5xBar
5x100
5x140
5x190
3x230
3x280
1x320
5x340


Notes: I am listing this under AM workout, but I actually did THIS part after work.  I tried hitting this first thing in the morning, but just had no gas in me.  Just like deadlifts, I need a few meals in me to break the weight off the chains.  Whereas in the morning I couldn't move 280, this afternoon I did some damage.  I'm going to make this a regular approach to this training day; hitting the assistance work in the morning then the heavy stuff in the PM.



(5)Axle mat pulls 123
100 reps


Reverse hyper 110
5x10

superset w/


Leg raise off bench
5x15



General notes: Woke up at 195.8.  Right elbow a little pissed off, but otherwise feeling fresh.





PM WORKOUT

Treadmill

Running 30 minutes at 7.5mph
Incline 2


Notes: Sticking with the speed while increasing the incline.  This has moved down from challenging to taxing.  My cardio and body is holding up, it's just my tolerance for monotony that is getting hit.  I might ramp up the incline 1 more time and then head back to 1 and up the speed.

  1. That's a good idea, something I'll do if I ever need to train early morning again. When I break up my squat workout I find that I need to warm-up far less even later in the day.

    Your elbow hurting even with sleeves?

    1. It's one of those things I didn't want to admit to myself, but yeah, I'm just stronger in the afternoon. At least the heavy part is relatively quick.


      Even with sleeves, but on that, I don't wear the sleeves during the movements where it hurts (pulls). It feels fine on pushes, but whenever I wore sleeves on rows/chins/etc, they would just get in the way. In truth, I just beat myself down pretty good, but I don't think I'm beyond recovery.
