Fall '07 - Lower 1, Week 15

Overall Impression:

i flew in from mumbai last evening. by the time i moved my stuff from the storage into my room and unpacked all this stuff it was 3:00 am. i had an 8:30 am class today. infact, i had classes from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm with only two one-hour-long gaps in the middle. needless to say, today was a tough day. luckily for me i dont suffer from any jet lag. i slept the entire time on the plane. but my body seems to be a little tired. as for diet: i got all my supps today. i ate quite a lot of food today but on the 29 hour flight while coming here i didnt eat a thing because the food was really bad. and i didnt drink enough water. so im very dehydrated. but, i didnt want to not workout today so i decided to go in and do some relatively light stuff.

Deadlifts = 1 set x 6 reps x 225 lbs, 1 set x 10 reps x 135 lbs

felt pretty easy. the back off set was just for kicks. my target is to hit 315x5 by the end of 6 weeks.

Bar Walkouts = 2 walkouts with 315 lbs

this is a very simple exercise. i load the bar with my projected squat max. then i walk out with the bar and stand for a few seconds. then i go and re-rack the bar. 315 is my prjected squat max at the moment. i dont know if its because of my dehydrated and weak state or the fact that 315 lbs is a lot or both, 315 felt very heavy. im glad Eric has me doing these walkouts.

Bulgarian Squats = 2 sets x 6 reps x 60 lbs

i was tired from the walkouts and the deads, i didnt feel 100% with this exercise.

Glute Ham Raises = 2 sets x 8 reps

ok now i finally have access to a GHR machine!!! whoo-hoo!!! i cant believe i nailed 8 reps on my own with zero cheating. week i am going to take a vid of this.

Grip Work using Hammer Curls = 2 sets x 5 reps x 50 lbs

nothing special to report.

Front Plate Squats = 2 sets x 10 reps x 25 lbs

in this exercise u hold the plate in front of u with ur hands and u squat down with the bar moving in a perpendicular angle with the ground the entire way. it really hits ur abs very hard.

Leaving Thoughts:

might do cardio tomorrow. the goal right now is to shove food down my throat though....

anyways,

cheers
