Mesocycle 18 - Week 3
Beginning Thoughts:
I have a hell week up ahead of me...
Workout:
Front Squats:
270 lbs x 1 rep @ 95%
245 lbs x 3 reps @ 85%+
240 lbs x 3 reps x 4 sets
Very trying.
Metabolic Conditioning for 2 rounds:
Barbell Reverse Lunges using Front Squat Grip = 65 lbs x 8 reps
Renegade Rows = 45 lbs x 5 reps
Unilateral RDLs = 65 lbs x 10 reps
Dumbbell Windmills = 30 lbs x 10 reps
Nearly threw up...
Grip Training:
Regular Walmart Gripper for few sets and reps as a warm-up
Heavy Grips 150 lbs x 5 reps x 2 sets
CoC #1 x 1 rep x 3 attempts...barely got 1 rep lol...
Heavy Grips 150 lbs x 5 reps x 2 sets
This is so damn difficult!!! But, I am sure I am gonna nail this in a few weeks. I also did like 5 hand extension sets over the course of this. 3 of the 5 sets I mentioned right now were done as a cool-down of sorts...

Overall Impression:
Had a decent weekend. Lots of studying but I did go see Wolfman which was terribly disappointing. On a different note: any of you guys watch Spartacus: Blood and Sand? Awesome show...mainly because the sex scenes are awesome (lol) but I think it's got potential. I do think it's not as awesome as Gladiator or 300 but I think the comic book type cinematography grows on you..
