Strength Training - May 12th, 2009
NROL - Break-in B1
A: Deadlift - 65t/15, 65t/15
B1: Step-up - 15e/15, 15e/15
B2: Dumbbell one-arm shoulder press - 15e/15, 20e/15
C1: Chin-up (assisted/attempts) - 15, 15
C2: Reverse Crunch - 20, 20
Then I did the metabolic overdrive intervals - 3, with 5-min warm up and cool down. (19 mins total)
53 mins, 400 cals, Max HR: 167 (94%), Avg HR: 130 (73%)
The deadlifts I think could be heavier, just not sure with the 15-reps. For whatever reason, the step-ups just seem to be a struggle (and I’m not sure that the weights are the problem). Don’t get me wrong, they’re never easy for me, just seemed hard today. I should be doing (for C1) close-grip lat pulldowns, but since I don’t have the equipment, can’t do dumbbell pullovers well with my elbow, and don’t have room to do barbell pullovers… I’ve decided to work on the chin-ups. I think I’m getting a little higher off the ground.
Overall, a good workout, but the intervals at the end are kind of brutal. Masochist that I am though, I keep doing them!
