Pooped

I’ve started integrating more cardio into my workouts, and I’m seeing results. While my weight is staying around 185-187, my waist is slimming. Keeping the diet with higher protein seems to be helping keep the lean muscle mass while still doing more cardio than I normally do. Most sessions are 30-45 minutes with lots of interval work. There is nothing I hate more than droning long steady state cardio workouts.

Today: 5k run @ 24:03 (honestly, my fastes 5k in years, though I don’t normally run 5k’s nor do I track my time)

Super Sets:

4 sets of 8
Incline Dumbell Press @60#
3 Point Dumbell Row @70#

3 sets of 12
Romainan Deadlift @ 135#
Swiss Ball Crunch

3 sets of 12
Step ups (each leg)
Kettlebell Swings @1 pood

Gonzo: The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson

I will see this. I’m not too wild about the producers trying to tie in Bush, etc. but as a Thompson fan, it looks to be an interesting work.

Man this smoked me

WUX1
3 rounds
400 Meter Run
25 - 45# Dumbell Swing
25 Glute Hams
25 Back Extensions
25 Kneeups

Threw in one extra 400 meter run, knocked the whole thing out in about 20 minutes flat. The swings were the killer, especially after the run. I’ve noticed that I like shorter higher intensity workouts over the longer slower paced ones. Quality vs Quantity.

Rippin it

WUX3
4 rounds:
Run 400 meter
Row 500 meter
OHS 45#

Good pace on the run/rows with my runs now being faster of course they are 100 meters less, maybe I should make them equal. Followed this up with some bicep work.

On the body weight issue, I’ve managed to drop to 180 for a time, but then started focusing on more strict lifting and have seen my weight go up to about 187-189, then again, it could be all the beer. I’ve been drinking more than normal, of course it will be cutout totally when I start warpspeed. :(

I actually have started to enjoy running

Oddly enough, but its in short durations. I like to do 1 mile sprints in an attempt to get my 1 mile time down to around 6:04 (the first mile I ever ran at age 15 in a pair of Chuck all Stars)

WUX3
As many rounds as possible in 20 mins:
400 meter run
15 Clean & Jerk @95#

Managed to nail out 3 rounds (the run was the easy part). I did get a heart rate monitor because I want to know the intensity of my workouts. I tend to be averaging 155BPM during the duration of my workouts with my rate getting up to around 170-178 during peak and 140 during non-peak. Pretty cool.
