Last night I found a new mat to use for HSPU.
Ran around to multiple Meijer stores this morning because they all got in a shipment of rubber coated hex dumbbells overnight. I was able to get pairs of 12, 15, 20, 25, 30, and 35! Returning the other sets back to my uncle for the price I paid him so he can make $$ with his home gym business. Now I just need to find 10, 40, and 45s.
One of the 50s won’t even fit now on the rack now. I need to make some type of platform to put on that top row to bump it up higher and to have a taller lip because the 50 pounder almost slides right over it.
I walked 18 holes this morning and then out in the garage at 5. Getting in a workout today since vacation at the cottage (my days off already started) starts tomorrow. I’ll be driving north and settling in, so it will be a rest day.
Warm-up
- 10:00 BikeErg (5,181m)
- 160′ Lateral Monster Walk
- 160′ Monster Walk
Weightlifting
Split Jerks
- 5×45#
- 5×95
- 5×145
- 3×185
- 3×205
- 3×225
- 3×235
Felt good. Didn’t use a belt and it was nice to get out the jerk blocks. Here is a video of the final set. I had no idea my abs looked like this!
Conditioning
20-18-16-14-12-10-12-14-16-18-20 (I Go You Go)
- Weighted Plyo Lunges (35# DBs, 5# DBs)
It’s been almost two months since we retested this. Brandi had worn an 8# vest and it took us 8:43. She’s been improving a lot with this stuff and bumped it up to five pound dumbbells today. We switched with her going first and holy shit going second is a whole different world of hurt. I think I broke up the 16-18-20 because I was dying. We smoked our time, finishing in 7:21. She’s going to use eight pounders next time.
Midline
4 Sets
- 12/12 Side Plank Bounces
- 12 Parallette Shoot Throughs
- 8/8 Hanging Oblique Raises
- 50m Farmer Carry (handles, 118#)
More nasty core work. Those carries were really bad after hanging from the bar. I’m really loving the handles though.
