Chins :
5 x bw
Weighted Chins :
1 x bw + 25
1 x bw + 45
1 x bw + 70
1 x bw + 90
11 x bw + 25
Stronger grip is necessary to make the +70 and +90 really solid. I basically jumped to the bar on those two sets and pulled as fast as possible. The speed up was impressive, but the negatives too were fast down.
I was hyped up to “what was I thinking” (linked below), and maybe to “pouring up” by pimp c on either the +90 or the 11 rep set.
Sing a line, timing the song well, jump to the bar, smoke the rep!
Keeping a hurry up pace up with the dude who trains weighted chins with me training with me.
BW+90? That’s something like a chin up as a 340lb fat man.
I’m that strong.
Today’s Amp Up Music :
Overhead Squats :
3×10
DB C&P
8 x 75s
That’s a PR, the Sig Klein challenge is close. I had to search to find a second bell, that was funny, normally I never have to go looking for the 75s.
Mantra Pushups :
10 sets
10 sets of pushups, bringing you into the mid 200 to 300 total reps area is a very solid standby.
I use this as a standby, I’ll go to the gym to get out of the house, and get this done when I’m not particularly feeling the gym.
Five sets or so in, and I’ll be hyped to be at the gym, and I’ll do full body like the usual.
Today was almost an off day.
I had pushups to do, and didn’t realize till after I’d done the overhead squats that May PT wasn’t required today.
The Mirror :
I look better in the mirror.
Calories are fairly low. Activity is high. I keep training. Diet is whatever sounds good, just not huge in calories.
I like the change I’m seeing, I’m strong, and feel good.
I expect abs this summer. Probably around 230lbs while very strong.
