Sunday Dec 21st/2008

Anderson Squats
bar x 5
115lb x 4
135lb x 3
155lb x 2
175lb x 1
195lb x 1
215lb x 1
225lb x 1
205lb x 5

First time doing these. Very tough exercise but I can definately see the benefit of doing them. They are are a real quad killer.


Step Ups (~24in platform)
bw x 5 (each leg)
25lb x 10
60lb 3x10

Another quad destroyer. These are pretty tough.

Bar Rollouts (from knees)
bw 2x5
bw x8, x10

These are quite tough as well but I feel I did pretty good for the first time.

Thougths

So many new exercises today. Great workout overall.

if you want more ham activity on the stepups....raise up the platform....get your knee above your hip.


good looking workout man.

95lb x 5
115lb x 3
135lb x 1
155 x 1
165 x 1 (5lb PR)
145lb x 5

I was hoping for more on MP but 165 was a grinder. Oh well, I'll take 5lb if I can get it.


Incline Bench
95lb x 10
115lb x 10
135lb x 10,9,9


P. Rows
bar x 8
95lb x 10
115lb x 10
135lb 3x10
145lb 2x10


Thougths

Well I'm glad I got my MP PR in. I am going to be taking about a week off just due to the holiday season but I think it'll be ok.

Plans for the new year: Start trimming out slowly with a timed carb diet plan. I hope I can make it work. I'm going to work some things out on my break. I'm back to work on the 5th and I'm hoping to start then.

I hope everyone has a great holiday and a happy christmas if you celebrate that!

Its been a week since my last workout. I have definately been maintaining calories over the holidays...not quality though... but I'm sure you know how that goes.
