 Training Log: Entry 3016


AM WORKOUT (0615 wake up via alarm) FASTED

A lot of squats and push ups, followed by a 4 mile walk, then a full day of eating, walking, a slice of Cheesecake Factory Lo-licous cheesecake in the evening as part of a mini-carb up (10 days since my last one), and actually got in an Easy Strength workout before that.


PM WORKOUT (1830)

3x3x161
3x3x40lbs

(3) Axle deficit double overhand deadlift
3x3x251+ chains (lockout issues on second rep of first 2 sets)

Standing ab wheel
1x10

Keg shoulder carry while wearing chains
3 trips right shoulder, 3 left
1 trip right, 1 left

Notes:

* Didn't plan to get this in at all today. It was a day of celebrating, but we had 20 mins of downtime so it fit my schedule perfectly.  

* Need to get lighter on the deads.  No point missing reps.

* Shoulder carries are baller.  I need to do them more.  It's similar to a suitcase carry being a unilateral load, but allows for much greater poundages.  I ended up clipping the chins together in the front, which helped keep them a little more stable.

* I underate quite a bit today.  Was anticipating much more food.  This may be a lighter weekend in general, but as long as performance goes well, I'm golden.  Not sore from those squats either: that's nuts.
