Saturday 5/3 and Monday 5/5

Saturday 5/3

Vertical push/pull workout

Inside-Out Warm-up

Band assisted chins, 3x6

Didn't really feel like pushing these today. Plus, I get better depression when using the bands versus bodyweight. I can't wait until these get easier!!!

BB Military, 8x110, 2x8@120

Getting stronger. Slowly.

Skullcrushers, 2x6@95

Bent Over Face Pulls, 2x10@25

In and out in about 30 minutes. This is quickly becoming my favorite workout for that reason alone ;)


Monday 5/5

I was supposed to do a low body workout this morning, but I've had some slight irritation in the knee so I canned it. However, this had led me to remember that almost nothing irritates my knee except for deep front squats, probably d/t the increased knee flexion and dorsiflexion at the ankle. If I would just be smart and remember this, life would be easier.

I did hit a Krav Maga class last night. Other than getting beat to hell by my partner (who obviously didn't understand the concept of "control") it was fine. My respect continues to grow for the MMA guys, as I caught a knee in the eye socket yesterday. Ouch.

Upper body session tomorrow AM.

Stay strong
