Re: did you work out today?

"The Bear" complex

7-sets of the sequence:

Power Clean
Front Squats
Push Press
Back Squats
Push Press

5-Rounds
*Rest as needed between rounds

*Increase load each round

*This is done to max load in final round
You may not put the barbell down to regrip but you may rest
the barbell anywhere ie.. front rack back rack or in crease of hips.
Power Cleans are "touch and go"

If you put the barbell down the workout is over

Went up to 150# failed in the 5th sequence
Still a PR though

Re: did you work out today?

14' 45" total time today, you guys are working way toooooo harrrrdddd
smile.gif
laugh.gif


Neck Extension - Nautilus plate-loaded machine - 35#'s 2' TCF
Chest Press - Nautilus Nitro - 125#'s - 2' TCF, + positive assist and 10" negative
Leg Press - Hammer Strength leg press machine - each leg !00# - 90" TCF
PullDown - MedX - 300#s - 97" TCF
Rotary Torso - MedX - 70#s each direction - 90" TCF
Ab Flexion - MedX - 76#s - 93" TCF
Lumbar Extension - SS modified MedX - 140#'s 2'05" TCF
7' ROM reset lower extremities (not counted in workout time)

In evaluating my effort, I always keep in mind that the "weight is NOT the resistance." Each rep features very slow turnarounds, controlled motion, slow speed w/o charging out of the bottom or falling out of the top.

Next workout, same protocol next Sunday.

Re: did you work out today?

Shorter than normal workout last night due to time constraints, but at least I got some upper body stuff in. That and core are what I really focus on, I naturally have very muscular legs so I don't really hit them more than once a week.

*curls
*cable pressdowns
*pull ups
*dips
*lat pulldowns
* forward & reversed grips on alot of those, reversed really makes some of them challenging

I'll be hitting the weights again tonight, for different groups of course.

You'd be surprised how fast swimming can be learned... I've only been at it for a couple of months, and the first time in the pool I couldn't do 200y without feeling like I was about to drown. I seriously thought that maybe triathlon wasn't for me, just because the swim looked like such a daunting task.

Now I got it whipped. I still have a ways to go to be faster and better, but I can swim my 1/2 Iron distance now, and my 70.3 isn't until May. If I train hard through the off season, maybe I can even be ready for a full this season.

Running is kinda weak for me... a 7:30 pace for me is fast, and I normally do good just to keep in the high 7's during a race. I really wish I could get a little faster with my running.

Yeah, it's all technique, I considered ironman triathlons after finishing college but could not afford the lessons so thought I'd perfect the marathon leg first since it was the cheapest and got hooked. Spent ~4 years eyeing the olympic marathon trials. Ended up going from a back-of-the-pack 34:18 college 10K runner to 30:57 before real life caught up with me. Now I'm just trying to chase down my weak marathon PR (2:28). What was easy to fit in as a grad student is not so easy with a house, wife, kids and career.
