MOnday 65mins, tuesday 75 mins stepmill

Saturday-20 laps with a plate and half. Didn't really have anything left to train with so I just harassed ben and his breast shirt. The breast ben shirt is the light v neck shirt that chicks wear and I think it was a medium size baby blue to boot. For the ava-gina this is normal behavior.

Sunday-wanted to see if I could do 20laps back to back days. THe sled was harder this day then usual so I got 10 with two plates then took one down for the remaining 10 laps.

1/cable lying raises across the body with

Wed 75 mins and thur 65 mins stepper


Wednesday
-Lunge of Christ(45lb bar on back for 1 lap around building
-loaded up 45lb and 25lb on prowler and did 20 to 30 yard sprints with 1 to 1.5 minutes break for 1 lap. I think it was somewhere around 20 to 25 mini spirnts
-my ass felt like it had its own zip when I got done or like the old days when it looked like I had two 106lb kbs for butt checks.

Thursday
-assisted pulls ups neutral grip with side abs for 4 rounds of 10 reps per
-then benched mixed with 4x4 kip type pullups. on the bench I mixed 5 comp grip with 3to 5 close grip and each set I added a chain or stump strap. bar, 70lbchain hanging,added 60lb chain, added spun inc stump strap with 10lb per side.

We just got our box of sling shots in so for the last two sets i added 25lb per side, tnen another 10lb for the last set. I got 5 and 3 reps.

The end result was getting back up to around 275lb for the last set and doing it decent so that was good as far as progress.

-ended with one arm tricep ext using reverse hyper machine and long ab strap with a cable handle so you imagine it a a lying pushdown with a ovehead ext part you would have it. mixed this up with 3x10jm presses with 70lb chain and 20lb per side.

Friday 1 hr 45 mins, Saturday no cardio, MOnday 75mins stepper, Tues 68mins stepmill

Sunday 20 laps sled drag with plate and half

Monday
-3 rounds upper body sled rotating overhead tricep, static 90 degree hold and iron cross, front raises, row static hold, curls and rear delts
-broke out the ropes and did 10 sets total wtih 5 sets of 25reps and 50 reps of two exercises, then for the last 5 sets of 100 reps I would only do one exercise for the entire 100reps. Recovered well on each set and my arm and shoulder only got slightly numb,

Saturday we worked a bodybuilding show in Spartanburg where some old school greats were there like Steve Michalik(1970s), Lee Haney(1980s) and John DeFendis(1980s too). They were all a bunch of great guys to hang out with and talk to. I guess it is Steve Michalik nature to be a super intense guy ALL the time even now. He is still walking around JACKED and in good shape. His workouts are crazy to say the least. So the guy promoting the show introduces me to both of them at the same time and I meet John first and as I am shaking his hand I feel Steve's shadow on top of me like he is getting in my face. I think, really? But apparently that is just his nature to get right on top of you like its going to be a street brawl. I feel it and just ignore it until Dutch introduces him and I feel the shadow fall back some and he shakes my hand. I was waiting for the "let's get it on!!" from the ref but it did not come. Later on we all talk alittle more and he is a cool dude after the two tom cats meeting in the alley moment.

Wednesday 75minsThursday 65mins stepmill


Wednesday-pulles heavy sled for 4 laps,3.5 plates for 3forward and 1 backward

Thursday
-LOng ab pulldowns sitting on seated row machine 15 reps working up each set
-Back circuit close grip pulldowns, very wide pulldowns, hammer rows 5 rounds x 10 to 12 per,
-Press and neck circiut. Decline(135lb) and incline barbell(100lb)x10 to 15 each for 4 rounds with 20 reps with 45lb on the neck machine pushing backwards. I am sure my neck will be jacked since I only once every 10 years do some neck work. The barbell felt good and both arms seem to push fairly even without too much domination by goood ole rightie. Leftie is still a total stranger as in the son you never knew you had who just showed up one day to become part of the family again. It's weird but you know it's yours 'cause it looks just like you.

Finished with another circuit of bodymasters squat machine using it as a overhead pushpress mixed with cable flye crossovers. the presses were 8 to 10 reps working up 5lb per set and the cables i got to half the stack which is good for me right now.
