Workout 092708

Took a long nap and decided against rock climbing. So I decided to squat; I don't want to rush into it so I kept it fairly light. I like to touch my ass to the ground on the pistols as it keeps my knee close to vertical; but I keep tension throughout so it isn't quite a rolling deck squat. Shoulder has been a little sore so threw in some windmills and a slow TGU.

Squat 1x5 135lbs
2x5 205 lbs
1x3 210 lbs
1x3 215 lbs

Pistol 5x1
TGU 16kg x1L/R
Windmill 16kg 3x3
Pinch grip 3x30lbs
1x40lbs only got the left a few inches off the ground but last week I couldn't move it
Clubbell Cleans? (I don't know the names of the moves)
3x5 25lbs
Finger Hangs x3

This week

Tues- BJJ
Weds-BJJ
Thurs-No gi BJJ

Pulled out my Ironmind grippers this week. I come within millimeters of closing the #2 with my right hand and not even close with my left. I can still close the #1 with both hands with a "no set". I will be messing around with these at work. Grip training is fun.

I am amazed at how much stronger I feel from doing EDT once a week with C&P and weighted pullups. I do feel the need to add some squats to the routine, so I may do 5x5 once a week. I have always been a weak squatter and would like to improve my leg strength. Once I hit my C&P goal I may "reward" myself with an Ironmind grip tool.

I might go bouldering today but I will see how I feel later. Tabata sprints, the single most grueling workout I have ever done, may be in the mix this weekend as well.

Workout 092108

Moved some stuff in the garage and decided to crank out a couple deadlifts.

Deadlift 245lbs 3x3
295 1x1

Finger hangs 3x30sec
Plate pinch 2x30sec 20 lbs L/R
1x30sec 30lbs L/R
1x 40 lbs R/failed L
10 Hill Sprints

Felt great. I didn't plan on it but I followed the Warrior Diet today and feel very good. I would like to give it a try again but I train BJJ late at night so I have trouble with when to feast. I could feast before training which is not good, or I could feast after training which would be around 10pm when I get home. 10pm is awfully late...

Catching Up
