m00se's workout log


Recommended Posts

Have been taking some time off lifting because I've been on nights. Something about working nights makes me feel like shit when I'm working out. I tried, but the lifts just weren't any good. I've been doing the occasional bit of moderate intensity stationary biking.

Can't wait til the end of the week though, because that's when I finish nights and can start lifting again.

Had some more nights after the last lot so only got back to lifting on Sunday. Boo. Scaled the lifts back a touch just in case.

Tuesday 27 March

Warmed up sawing down seven unwanted trees, dragging the timber 50 yards up the garden to the bonfire, stacking it all, then changing my mind and dragging it all the way back to relocate the bonfire.

Bench

---------

10/30/50 x 8

70 x 6

70 x 6

70 x 4

Eek. Have definitely got a lot weaker in the bench. Disappointed. :/ Need to work on this.

Snatch

----------

Something different. Thought I'd try my hand at the snatch.

30 x 2 x 5

Interesting. Feels pretty badass.

40 x 5

Nice to have a bit of variation. Plus now I can tweet snatch jokes ;)

Front Squat

----------------

Came to the realization over my night shifts while watching form videos that I was going nowhere near low enough on either back or front squats. Now doing fully ass to grass squats with lower weight and working back up.

10/30/50 x 8

70 x 8

Yeahhhhh!

Rows

--------

10/30/50 x 8

60 x 8

Done. Awesome.

Another week off as i was away over Easter. Feel week. Still, you've got to take time out when it comes along haven't you?

Ab wheel rollout 5x5.

Done.

Been doing a lot of reading and it seems the difference in muscle gain between 5x5 and 3x8 is negligible so may switch back to 5x5 again. I was progressing much better on that.

These seem to be easier on my knee. Weird. Anyway, who cares why. Also switching back to 5 reps on these because my legs are already big enough lol!

Much nicer than barbell squats. Also prefer 5 x 5 it seems.
