Squats

Got home from work and fell asleep in my chair. No motivation, I almost convinced myself to relax this evening. Almost.

Rebounding - 15 minutes.

Leg Swings and Dynamic Stretches.

Squats - bar/6 reps, 135lbs/6 reps, 225lbs/6 reps, 315lbs/2 reps, 345lbs/4 reps, 225lbs/6 reps, 135lbs/6 reps.

Static Stretches.

Again, I could have done more but I wanted to leave a bit in the tank for next Squat day. Good training day.

No Time Grip

Change of work schedule today. Gotta be in for noon. I got up early to get a little bit of training in.

Rebounding - 30 minutes.

Barbell Squeeze - 2 sets/20 reps/50lbs, 3 sets/20 reps/75lbs.

Another outstanding idea to put my DIY pins to work. I might not be able to hold anything tomorrow. Great training for the up coming Iron Claw.

Sandbags

Still not 100% recovered from the stomach bug I have. I had to leave work early last night. On my way home I stopped at the drug store and got some Immodium. After my dose last night I haven't had any issues. I haven't pooped. Oh well, out to the garage for a little training.

Rebounding - 45 minutes.

Kettlebell Swings - 12 reps/40lbs.

Sandbag to Shoulder - 120lbs/6 reps, 150lbs/4 reps.

That it. Not pushing until I'm well. That said, 150lbs to shoulder for four is a PB for me.

Squats... sort a.

This week was supposed to be all about ramping up the weights. However, the Stomach flu caused me some issues. Maybe starting with Squats the first day I started feeling better wasn't such a great idea. Anyway, I did.

Rebounding - 30 minutes.

Squats - 2 sets/6 reps/bar, 2 sets/6 reps/135lbs, 2 sets/6 reps/225lbs, 315lbs/3 reps.

Step Ups - 3 sets/12 reps per side.

Static Stretches.

Not feeling confident in my butt hole after the first set of 315lbs squats. Moving on...

My form on 315lbs is beautiful.

OMG!!! My Poor Bum

My gassy guts from Sunday turned into a full on stomach flu. Nothing but gas and liquid out my backside since Monday morning. This evening I'm feeling a little better. As long as I'm near the toilet I should be ok.

Light Stretches.

Rebounding - 30 minutes.

Push Ups - 6 sets/12 reps.

Hopefully I'm on the recovery side of these bubbly guts.

Inclined Axle Press

My guts are rolling today. Not worth taking the risk with squats.

Static Stretches and Theragun.

Feeling a bit fat lately. My diet has been casual lately. This week I work evenings. I'll tidy up my eating then. Hopefully.

That's better. Now it's time for dinner.
