It has been hectic this week so due to fatigue and lack of time I trained yesterday and squeezed in both squat and bench.
Wednesday Sep 16/09
Stretch & warm up
Squat: 20 x 8 60 x 5 Added the Box - 60 x 5 100 x 3 140 x 12 x 2 @ 60 sec rest
Front Squat: 100 x 3 x 5
Bench: 60 x 8 100 x 1 107.5 x 5 115 x 5 122.5 for a single where I was to do another set of five. The shoulders were tender and the strength was not there so that was all for the bench.
Rotator Cuff Ex and stretch

So, I'm feeling a little dragged out after work these days. This is dampening my enthusiasm to exert myself in the HHG. Monday I took a rest since I had a nap no sooner than I got in the house. Today was similar but I hit the rack. Tue Sep 29/09Stretch & warm up Neck work: Purple band x 20/side; Purple + Mini x 20/side 20kg x 2 x 20 front; 20 x 20, 15 back Squat: 20 x 8, 5 60 x 5 Box Squat: 60 x 5 102.5 x 3 142.5 x 12 x 2 @ 50 sec rest NSGM: 60 x 3 x 15 Standing ab crunch: 60kg x 1:30min x 60 reps I ran outta gas...

I'm here, just a severe lack of energy for training with all that is going on right now. How was the Holiday? I left you a voicemail near the beginning of your trek but I'm sure your offspring had listened to it and deleted it by the time you returned from the Coast.

Isn't that something to do with getting too close to a female relative??

KB Swings: 20kg x 3 x 8/side HLR: 4 x 10 A good back workout. I needed to stretch out as I was tight from the desk job so once I got home some cobras and supermans to loosen up the low back. McLifter
