On The Go Workout #3

I took a break for a few days. I am eating food which has a very high salt content. So I am all bloated up and looking damn de-conditioned (if thats the right phrase).

Superset One:
A1.) Overhead Squats = 95 lbs x 3 reps x 8 sets
A2.) Pull-ups (different grips) = 3 reps x 8 sets
A3.) Push-ups = 50 reps total over last 4 sets

Superset Two:
B1.) Head Supported Dumbbell Rows = 35 lbs x 8 reps x 3 sets
B2.) Standing Overhead Dumbbell Presses = 35 lbs x 8 reps x 3 sets

It was a relatively short workout which was pretty taxing. I return to Mumbai on the 8th of August. I plan on doing a short workout tomorrow and then taking a few days off before hitting the gym hard once I get back.

Cheers everyone and I hope everyone's having a good week so far.

Sadly, in over ten years in the Navy I never stepped foot on foreign soil. Join the Navy and see the world my dying ass!

LOL...how old are you, AC?

Good work on the OH squats. That is a crap ton of work for that exercise, and I have to say pretty impressive weight too. Could be more, sure, but that weight would humble most people in a heartbeat, I'm sure of it.

I'm 32... and if this war keeps up much longer the navy will show me who is boss by sending my happy butt to Afghanistan or Iraq. Any word on the women in those places? :)

On The Go Workout #4

Last workout before I go home in 2 days. Expect the next workout on Sunday or Monday...Lets see how I feel when I get back.

Jerusalem is at a height of 800 meters above sea level. I wonder if working out at this height will help me when I reach sea level http://forum.bodybuilding.com/images...es/biggrin.gif

I probably walked around for 6 hours today sight-seeing old Jerusalem and seeing King David's tomb, etc etc..Great day today. I was pretty tired but thought I would do a workout just for shits and giggles.

Superset One:
A1.) Parallel Bar Dips = 5 reps x 5 sets
A2.) Good Mornings = 95 lbs x 5 reps x 5 sets
A3.) Chin-ups = 5 reps x 5 sets

Superset Two:
B1.) Unilateral Romanian Deadlifts = 75 lbs x 10 reps x 5 sets
B2.) Push-ups = 10 reps x 5 sets
B3.) Dumbbell Rows (Bilateral) = 35 lbs x 10 reps x 5 sets

I hope everyone has a good week and a fun weekend too. I am flying to Jordan tomorrow and will now be online sometime after Friday night.

Cia everyone http://forum.bodybuilding.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

Beginning Thoughts:

I am back home. I flew in from Jordan at 6 am today. Slept the entire time on the plane (I love sleeping on planes - I know it's weird but it reminds me of my cradle when I was a baby http://forum.bodybuilding.com/images...es/biggrin.gif) and I took a 3 hour nap before my workout. I am glad to be back home.

Workout:

I began the workout with Snatch Grip Deadlifts. Put up 230 lbs for sets of 3 and then reduced the weight to 190 for sets of 5. Followed this with some Speed Deadlifts @ 60% of my 1RM = 225 lbs for many many single-sets.

Moved onto some Walking Lunges and did some Ab Work which completely destroyed me. It was a very tiring workout.

Overall Impression:

I have my diet for the next semester all set up thanks to Nick and I plan on eating plenty of food and increasing my metabolism right now.

Other than that today's workout was cool. I worked on form issues after the workout and did some OH Squats and other extra mobility drills to get my hammies to become less "tight".

I hope y'all have a good weekend, everyone! http://forum.bodybuilding.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

good stuff mate...good to have you back :)
