NG Inclined Bench Press

This evening I felt like moving some weights.

Rebounding - 30 minutes.

Still feeling heavy and fat but building strength.

Squats

My daughter came over to learn from the master today. She trains regularly but wants to get stronger. Specifically for squats. Once you master form I like the old saying. "To squat more, you must squat more." 

Leg Swings and Dynamic Stretches.

Squats - 95lbs/6 reps, 115lbs/6 reps, 135lbs/6 reps, 155lbs/6 reps, 245lbs/6 reps, 4 sets/3,1,3,4 reps/315lbs.

My strength is way down but this is a good start. I'm also trying to lose some body weight. 370lbs right now is waaaay too heavy.

I'm Back!!!

This is the longest hiatus I've taken from lifting, training and entering posts. I spent some time visiting with my parents in Nova Scotia. I was helping them downsize in preperation for their move here to Winnipeg in July. I don't really have anything to train for right now so the break was nice.

Now I'm back home and life continues. Time to get the train back on the tracks. However, I'm not exactly sure where to start. Life is so busy right now. I want to do so much but there's only so much time. Enough about that. Here's how today went.

Rebounding - 40 minutes total.

Pull Up Negatives - 5 sets/ 20 reps.

Kettlebell Swings - 3 sets/20, 20, 30 reps.

Feeling fat and out of shape. Time for a change.
