May 31, 2013

Some Pulls & Squats

May 31, 2013
Noon

My arm is freaking killing me today from last evenings armwrestling. I didn't really notice it until I hung some weight on it so I figured I'd strap up to give the biceps and grip a rest.

All pulls with my Westside Power Bar

1a) Deadlift
WU to 475

1b1) High Cable 2.5" Crusher Wrist Curls
50 x 5 x 15r
-clean reps with holds

1b2) 2-3/8" Wrist Roller
55 x 3

2) Deadlift vs Average Band
395 x 3 x 3r
-these felt way better than last week and I filmed the last set. Slowed down a bit on the 3rd rep so I stopped there.

3) SSB Squats
WU to 205 x 2 x 10r
-minimal rest and done as fast as possible. Went to the SSB to give my bicep a break as well.

Outdoors Pressing & Pulling

May 29, 2013
After Work

Couldn't (didn't want to) train at lunch due to the pouring rain. Let off in time for me to get some done after work. Feeling pretty damn beat up still from Mondays armwrestling so I didn't hit everything as a bunch more people are supposed to show up for tomorrows practice.

1) BB Clean & Strict Press - Short Cycle - 40r
95 x 8, 5
135 x 10, 10, 8, 10, 2
Experimented a bit on those last 8 and 10 rep sets. I definitely have more jam with a full pause rather than bouncing off of my lat load.

2) BB Row
185 x 3 x 15r
