Spring 2009 Training
Mesocycle 7 - Week 3
Extra Workout
Beginning Thoughts:
Nothing special.. Workout:
Pistols:
Left Leg: 2 + 3 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 12 reps
Right Leg: 2 + 3 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 12 reps
I got some clips of this. The video I've uploaded is LONG.....so view it at your own discretion. The clips of the Pistol Squats are upto 5 minutes or so and then the remaining 1.5 minutes are focussed on my Pull-ups...
Pull-ups:
BW x 5 + 5 + 5 + 10 = 25 reps
BW + 20 lbs x 3 + 5 = 8 reps
BW + 30 lbs x 3 + 3 = 6 reps
BW + 20 lbs x 3 + 3 = 6 reps
BW x 5 = 5 reps
Total = 50 reps
Great stuff....
Windmills:
10 lbs x 10 reps x 3 sets
Turkish Sit-ups:
10 lbs x 5 reps x 3 sets
God these are hard...
Kettlebell Walks:
40 lbs x 45 feet x 2 trips Videos:
Pistols & Pull-ups...LONG:
Overall Impression:
Just saw Fast and Furious....VERY entertaining. I want to see every movie that comes out now on out almost: Revenge of the Fallen, X-Men, etc....
I have noticed that with the shift in the world economy and the political scenario...most movies which come out aren't necessarily good (IMO) but very entertaining and helps to "escape" reality..
In other news...I got a weight-loss update for y'all....

Leigh Peele's Fat Loss Troubleshoot E-Book
Update on my weight-loss here.
Zero Weightloss for March. But, I haven't gained any weight either. AND I have lost 2 inches off my waist...so it's all good. I'm gonna try and drop some more weight this month. I am uploading an excel spreadhseet if anyone wants or cares about which has my calorie breakdown on a daily basis (taken from Fitday).
Cheers!

Spring 2009 Training
Mesocycle 7 - Week 3
Deadlift Day
Beginning Thoughts:
I haven't been getting as much sleep as I should....Too many exams. Good news is that that "hell week" is officially over for now. Workout:
Medicine Ball Throws:
15 lbs x 15 reps x 3 sets
Banded Deadlifts using the Red Bands Double Looped:
195 lbs x 2 reps - This was the first struggle set
195 lbs x 2 reps - This was the second struggle set
115 lbs x 2 reps
125 lbs x 2 reps
135 lbs x 2 reps
Very bad quality of reps, IMO. I just couldn't focus and I realized only after my 135 lbs set that I had put the dumbbells (I use dumbbells to hold the bands down) too far from the cage i.e. the bands were stretched out TOO far. So perhaps this was reason for my sloppiness but even so...the center of middle back has been very sore for the last 3-4 days and it was hurting while I was deadlifting. I think it may be because of the excessive number of pull-ups I've been doing recently.
Deadlifts:
315 lbs x 2 reps
355 lbs x 2 reps
395 lbs x 1 rep
425 lbs x 1 rep
405 lbs x 1 rep
225 lbs x 8 reps
So, the good news is that I hit 425 for a single inspite of feeling so shitty. Bad news is that my set-ups was a bit off from normal and that resulted in a whole lot of jiggling of my fat around mid-point of the rep. 405 was less jiggling but more struggling. I tore my calluses again. I am such a pussy when it comes to my calluses lol....
Medicine Ball Throws:
15 lbs x 15 reps x 3 sets
Plate Pinches:
25 lbs x 30 seconds x 3 sets Videos:
Banded Deadlifts & Deadlifts:
Overall Impression:
I think I've been working out too hard and perhaps it's time to take a few days off. I am going to Houston this weekend with some friends and I am gonna use that as an opportunity to skip my Extra Workout and my Squat Day. I'll workout on Monday with Press Day and then come next Thursday I'll start Mesocycle 8 if all goes according to plan. I am also gonna focus on my diet quite a bit. I've been recording my morning oral body temperature for the last 3 days and I think my metabolism may be in trouble - either that or my sleeping patterns are really messed up.
In any case, I hope everyone has a good weekend. Thanks for reading!

Spring 2009 Training
Mesocycle 7 - Week 4
Press Day
Beginning Thoughts:
I should rename this day as "Pull Day" for today.... Workout:
Medicine Ball Twists:
15 lbs x 12 reps x 3 sets
Medley for 4 rounds:
1.) Pull-ups = BW x 6 reps
2.) Inverted Rows = BW x 6 reps
3.) Lat Pull Downs = 160 lbs x 6 reps
4.) Dumbbell Rows = 90 lbs x 5 reps
I wanted to see how this feels like coz I got something similar to this down for my next mesocycle. This is very tiring. But I had fun.
Medicine Ball Twists:
15 lbs x 12 reps x 3 sets
Wide Grip Pull-ups:
BW x 4 reps x 3 sets Videos:
None Overall Impression:
The center part of my mid-back is STILL sore and it hurts a little bit...Kinda worried about it. I bought that Trigger Point Therapy book so I'm gonna do some of the massages detailed in the book and I'm gonna apply some Tiger Balm tonight..
