I did a bodybuilding/repetition session on Friday.

Will said if I'm to do any training over the weekend it was to be conditioning.

So considering I felt like a pile of ****e yesterday during my lecture I did a conditioning/recovery session.

I'll update when I'm at a computer.

Felt like a bag of crap all day Saturday so I did the above session to feel a bit better and it served it's purpose.

Da Za · 09-03-2011 5:25pm

Deads (RAW DOG)
2 x 5 - 100
1 x 5 - 120
1 x 5 - 140

Weighted Side Bridging

This was a good session last night. Got plenty of work in. I seem to get a good arm pump from holding on when doing the reverse hypers......this may have led to me tiring pretty quick when benching.

The weight felt real light, as it should, when benching but I was tiring quick enough. I pulled the plug of some of the sets when I started to flare but I think it was an appropriate time to stop anyway as I was fatigued!! Should get 5 x 10 @90kg next week.

Can't wait to hit some squats tomorrow!!

With IP not being an option tomorrow, I'll be training in RAW. So Will told me to front squat instead of SSB Squat. So I'll be working up in triples so looking forward to see how it goes.........no drink for this playa!!!!!!

Trained in Raw

Front Squats
2 x 5 - 60
2 x 5 - 80
1 x 3 - 100
3 x 3 - 120 (Added Belt)

DB RDL's
1 x 12 - 37.5's
4 x 12 - 47.5's

Weighted Bridging
5 x 1min - 20kg plate

Chins
5 x 15 - Grey Band

Elevated Press Ups (using press up bar things)
5 x 12

KB Side Bends
3 x 15(each side) - 28

Front squats were tough, my wrists did not enjoy them at all. Fairly pleased with the triples at 120, it was the number I had in mind yesterday. Still really worked on the things that'll make me stronger.

The elevated press ups were done with a neutral grip using the handles, these were also fairly difficult.

I'd say I raised the level of awesomeness in Raw by about 50%+, the smell of awfulness was rancid!!! Had a good TRAINING session!!

No vids Big L, next time if your lucky

Stretching throughout the day in accordance to the scriptures of Chad Aichs.........

He is f*cking flexible!!!

It's just the fly's hitting the upper pecs...that's what's doing the toning.

Repetition-Friday-25/03/11

Well.......got out to IP, headed in and straight back out. Slept in Lama's car while he trained. Felt like death, my system just shut down. This happens about 2 or 3 times a year. I knew it was coming but tried to man up and headed over anyway enough though I was shivering waiting for the luas as soon as I left the house!!!

Looking forward to this week........with the exception of all the study that'll have to be done!!!

Will Heffernan · 27-03-2011 1:43pm

Testing...testing...1,2,3. Testing.

Don't worry...so was I.

Da Za · 30-03-2011 1:00am

Posted my results but somehow I got logged off.....FFS!!!

Squat - 200kg - new stance, new grip..... got plenty to work on

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8eBhVg_pys

Bench - 120kg after missing 125 twice....

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=on937OxS9yQ

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wiqc2UpLFM

Deadlift - 240kg - as you can see in the vid the bar got away from me and that made it hard to finish.....not my most complete rep ever!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BRgrhJnclw

Chins - 10

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tM-f8YuiMKQ

Press Ups - 48 is what it looks like from the vid.......lactic acid built up too quickly with these

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-OQhNY98jVg

Inverted Rows - 31

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z73MRZaXqtc

Spider Test - 90,80,80,75,70,70 = 465m

My legs just blew up during the 2nd sprint and i just couldn't lift my legs!!

Happyish with how testing went. Squat was alright considering it's a narrower stance, so plenty to work on with them and hopefully move forward to squat some big weight!!!

Da Za · 30-03-2011 11:48am

I weighed in at 117.4kg before testing.

Will Heffernan · 30-03-2011 2:35pm

Back to your old tricks on that squat.

Will Heffernan · 30-03-2011 2:41pm

Want to see the 'other' videos if you have them...the deadlifts and squats before those attempts.

Day 1 of Squat Life

Squats got better as the sets went on.

Weighted Chins
10 x 3 - 5kg - Did these in between my chins and floor presses.

DB Floor Press
2 x 8 - 30's
5 x 8 - 35's
These were easy enough, so I'll be able to build up on these over the weeks.

Ab Twists
3 x 30secs - 10kg plate

DB Cleans
2 x 10 - 10's - Did these as my shoulders were a bit ropey!!!

Will Heffernan · 31-03-2011 11:45pm

That was definitely your worst set.

Biceps were bugging me a bit again.

Was supposed to do 100 reps for rows but just did 60 because of my bicep issue. The pain did subside a bit during rowing though but the way I was rowing made it much more difficult than usual anyway!!!
