Training Sesh 3/27/14: First sesh in the key of C, sharings by Craig, stanky gear



As intimated in the last sesh log, I had earlier contemplated the "C" sesh with the need to expand the rehab for the shoulder and get more work in on the bench. Squat is going well- calculated 1RM is now within 10lbs or so of previous actual gym PR. Deathlift is formative but progressing and as long as progress continues, good there.

The bench, however, she is sad. She is sad and stalled.

So, as described previously, I wrote up an additional day, labeled it "C", and today was its debut. A pretty straightforward sesh with minimal intrusion, and as there was no video taken of any super exciting sets, you get entertainment provided by Craig.

Boom. Definitely not safe for work, lest ye be the boss with impunity, work alone, like to keep your office door closed, etc.




Beer.

Here's what occurred:

  • Bench - 2x5xbar, 5x95lbs, 5x135lbs, 5x155lbs, 5x165lbs
  • Tbar row w/two count holds - 4x8x45lbs
  • OHP, strict - 10xbar, 3x8x95lbs
  • Band pull aparts - 3x15 w/EliteFTS Intense Onyx Band
  • Band external rotation - 3x15 w/EliteFTS Micro Mini Pro Band
  • Cable pressdown wide grip w/fat straight bar - 30x60lbs, 20x80lbs, 12x100lbs
  • Reverse hyper - 3x10x90lbs


More shoulder and triceps volume. More rehab goodness.

More bellies. Also courtesy of Craig.




So far so good. We will monitor the situation going forward.

Also, it has been decide that, despite the fact that Christian is going to shave (not sure why he would want to do that), I will not, in fact, disown him.

As long as he keeps the Pop Tart (tee em) supply flowing.




As an aside, I finally broke down and bought some Lysol (also tee em) to at least make my wraps and sleeves a little more wearable. You see, gear gets sweaty and funky and then it tends to sit in a bag for long periods of time away from things like fresh air and steeped in things like darkness, other nasty gear, shoes, etc. So thanks to a trip to Target and some pants hangers, soon my stuffs should be good as new.

Or at least not hazardous to the public health.

And I have five pounds of orange cream Matrix 5.0 in the pantry. Yummy stuffs for my gainses.

Yay.

Go forth and destroy.
