Dissection Of The Funt
-
<p>Gym session this morning - working into making it a bit more aerobic by taking shorter breaks. Max rest 60s between sets, a bit longer between exercises:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Chin ups: 4, 2, 3, 2 - after the first set, did 10 box jumps (45cm) then each of the remaining were followed by 10 step ups.</p>
<p>Sled run: 20m (10 up, 10 back) with 130kg, then 150kg x 3</p>
<p>Waiter's Carry: 20m walk. Using a 20kg KB for this, right hand then left hand without a break, 30s rest, repeat. 3 sets total. I think my wrist wasn't in the right position to maximise forearms</p>
<p>Farmer's Carry: 20m walk with this, using 30kg dumbell then 40kg x 3</p>
<p>Chest Press: 30kg per arm - 8, 5, 3</p>
<p>Leg Press: 220kg x 10, 250kg x 10 - just to blow out some of the work I did on Tuesday.</p>
<p>Did a set of 10 box jumps at the end.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I've put 1-2 kg so on, probably due to a bit of over-eating with all this exertion, but I can definitely feel the difference in terms of strength. The old muscle memory is good, and things (particularly legs) are firming up.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I might have to start adding a short run on the days where I'm not lifting, to get a different kind of burn going. I don't want to be massive, just leaner - back to where I was a couple of years ago would be nice.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Abs and stretch class tomorrow, and might see how I'm feeling for the Saturday Heavy Lifting class in the morning.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Doing the classes is a lot more motivating, because there are multiple hot chicks around and I don't want to look like the fat, old man that I am
I'm certainly more stuffed at the end of it.</p> -
<p>Sheesh, hug it out already!!</p>

<p>Abs and stretch class this morning. Legs were still fucked from yesterday so any activity like bicycles or scissors was fucking hard.</p>

<p>Dude, I was just messing round, that comment actually hurt.</p> -
<p>Weirdest thing today - went to rugby against my better judgement and my Second Grade side actually got up! Couple of blow-ins with talent, and some missing opposition.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>But I was standing up for nearly 5 hours straight - including running the line for First Grade - in between an hour's drive there and back. Now the very top of my quads hurt like a motherfucker. Something about stretching??? Or maybe walking around in steel caps for a few hours...</p> -

<p>I'm trying to decipher this post, you trained with them or actually played ?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Can't recommend stretching highly enough so do it......mind you my legs and abs ( not that they're actually visible ) hurt like fuck after I have incorporated broad jumps into my workouts. I'm being dragged to Raro in a couple of months so doing my best to look the part physically even if the tan will be very "Celtic".......</p> -

<p>Hope he was well - His Bobness showed up on the AB v Wales thread. Old skool</p>

<p>Yeah MvJ is doing alright - still here in Sydney, still lawyering away. Still a good ref, overall.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Gym this morning, short session as its a public holiday here:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Chinups: 4, 3, 3, 1</p>
<p>Squats: 5 x 80kg, 5 x 100kg, 5 x 100kg, 5 x 110kg - will continue to work on the increases here but I reckon I could probably go 120 for a 1RM at this point.</p>
<p>Deadlifts: 5 x 100kg, 5 x 120kg, 5 x 100kg</p>
<p>Leg Press: 5 x 270kg, 5 x 300kg, 5 x 330kg, 2 x 350kg</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Fucked myself on that last set - first one I didn't think was deep enough, so I went super deep on the second one and it crept up at snail's pace.</p>
