Strength Training - May 28th, 2009
I did a 5-min cardio warm-up on the treadmill, followed by 10 reps each of the prescribed warm-up (except for the t-push-ups - can’t do them). Then I did:
A: Deadlift - 70t/15, 75/15
B1: Step-up - 15e/15, 15e/15
B2: Dumbbell one-arm shoulder press - 22e/15, 25e/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, 385 cals, Max HR: 168 (95%), Avg HR: 128 (72%)
The workout was better than the last time. I’m still struggling a lot with the step-ups (not sure why).
What a crappy day out. It was kind of mix of mist, rain, pouring rain, etc. I did 30 mins on the treadmill this morning instead of walking outside. I really haven’t done that much today. A quick run to a store this morning (for a sale item they didn’t have yesterday), made some meat sauce, cut up and froze chicken parts, and did a little laundry. It would be nice if the weather went back to ‘not raining’ but we’ll see.
