Summer 2009 Training
Mesocycle 10 - Week 3

Conditioning Day

Beginning Thoughts:
My right shoulder was feeling a bit too tight when I went in....I did the plate halos and it made a big difference but I reckon I should've done a couple more sets.
Workout:
Overhead Squats:
25 lbs x 5 reps
45 lbs x 5 reps
75 lbs x 3 reps
95 lbs x 3 reps
115 lbs x 2 reps
135 lbs x 3 reps
165 lbs x 2 reps
165 lbs x 1 rep
165 lbs x 2 reps
I was determined to do 2x2 with 165. But, several things went wrong. First, I had a spat with some of the trainers at my gym and that put me in a foul mood. Negativity to some helps them get riled up. To me it has the opposite effect. I like peace and quiet. So, it took me a while to calm down. Then, set 1 with 165 went smoothly. One set 2, while coming out of the hole on rep 2, I shifted the weight forward unintentionally and got pinned. Thank god for the safety pins. On set 3, coming out of the whole on both reps was good. But, after I locked out rep 2, my right shoulder almost got dislocated and I dumped the bar from over my head. That scared the living shit out of me. You can see this happen in the video. So, while this may seem like an awesome workout on paper, several things could have gone wrong and there is a lot to learn from this.

Conditioning Circuit done 3 times:
Spiderman Walks = BW x 10 reps
Swiss Ball Jack Pikes = BW x 8 reps
Supine Glute Ham Raises = BW x 10 reps
Ab Roller = BW x 10 reps
Band Pull Throughs = 2 Whites x 10 reps
Front Planks = BW x 30 seconds
Banded Shrugs = Blue x 10 reps
Dips = BW x 6 reps
Banded Pushdowns = Blue x 15 reps
One Arm Pulldowns = Blue x 12 reps
I got my last circuit (forgive my sloppiness) on video. Unfortunately, my camera's memory ran out and it got cut on the last exercise.

Overall Impression:
I've been watching a lot of movies recently.

I saw Heroes Season 2 this week. I am gonna start Season 3 in a few minutes. I also saw Transformer 2. Loved it. I only went for entertainment so I had no real expectations. I also saw Ice Age 3 in 3D which was a good deal of fun. I just finished watching The Longest Yard with Adam Sandler and I love that film lol...I am looking forward to seeing Harry Potter next week and The Proposal and G.I. Joe...I really want to see G.I. Joe.
