Today's Gym Session

[southernsoftie]

Well at $300 a place I don't think I'll be going!

Pssh! Me neither

[The devil's own]

Usual alternate workout of 1k row warm up, squats, bench, bent over rows, leg raises, calf raises and back raises.

[The devil's own]

Warm up of 1k on rower, then squats, ohp and deadlifts. First stall on weight increase on ohp. Didn't manage the full five reps on the last 2 sets. Will give it another two goes at that weight before reducing and working up again. Not surprised I stalled, felt tired and weak. Daughters not well so sleep hasn't been to clever at the moment.

Yoga session....my second!!!

[The devil's own]

Lets get this thread going again.
1k warm up row. Then squats (at the weight that injured me last time i tried it, this time without a problem), bench, bent over rows and farmers walk to finish it all off.

Going to add the PLP workout to my current regime from tomorrow.

15 minutes on the cross trainer. Then pull ups, lunges and press ups. With lots of ITB roller action thrown in for good measure.

First gym sesh of the yr yesterday:

- Tabata row sesh
- 35 pull ups
- Mini core circuit (5 x Swiss ball pikes/stick push/med ball crunches/10 @ 30 secs each)
- ITB rolling

Couldn't do much upper body: wrenched my elbow getting out the sofa last week, set my tennis elbow off again

Also took my boss thru a mini-circuit this morning:

5 rounds of 10 sack pick ups/10 box-jump burpees/10 core get ups.

[The devil's own]

Squats, ohp, deadlifts and farmers walk. Alongside lots of ITB roller action. Broke through my recent barrier on the ohp so I left the gym a happy man.

Machine shoulder press, cable biceps curls and close grip bench press. Plenty of stretching at the end to loosen up hips and glutes after returning to running from injury.

Yesterday's session:

Tabata row sesh at gym completely did me in:
10 reps, 5<1:35/500m; 2<1:40; 3<1:45.

Press up circuit (20 *proper* press ups; 20 spider press ups; 20 Hindu press ups; 20 other ones I don't know the name of, but the up position is on one arm, body twisted to the side other arm points to the ceiling; 10 plyometric press ups onto a step and off again; 1 1min press up (lower over 30s, hold down position for 15s, the push up over 15s)

Did some core wk with a sandbag & a Swiss-ball, calf extensions, rolled out ITB & finished with 5 sets on the chest press machine and another 1min press up (though I collapsed in the down position!).

A quick 10 lengths in the pool, and then home.
