SevenofSeven Posted April 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2016 The Cube Week 4 explosive squat, 02.04.2016 Saturday Warm Up: Lots of stretching, skipping and other stuffs. Explosive Squats: 2x10@BW 1x10@Bar 1x10@41kg 1x5@51kg 6x2@73.5kg (the first two sets were really fast and felt awesome, then I just slowed down, it was a real woah moment.) Front Squat: 2x5@60kg (started well but the last rep on set 1 was just ugly, so belted up for the second set, felt heaps better, pretty stoked though, these are the heaviest I have done.) Pause at Parallel: 3x6@68.5kg (ggggrrriiinnndddyyyyy) Swiss Ball Push Up: 3x5 ( feet up on the Swiss ball, swapped these out because I couldn't brace with my sweaty legs to do back extensions) Bulgarian Split Squats: 3x10@30kg (these truly are torture) RDL: 3x10@50kg (needing to swap these out for something else, because they aren't the best things to do) Leg Extensions: 4x10@45kg (fucking beast mode) Leg Curl: 3x10@25kg (not fucking beast mode) ABS: Prone Jack Knife: 4x10 Swiss Ball Crunch: 4x10@20kg plate Hollow Holds: 3x25s ( no one says how hard these little fuckers are, thank you ABS and CORE ladies) Glute Bridges: 5x5s (did these with Lilly laying across my chest, she saw me laying on the floor and took the opportunity to come in for a cuddle, wouldn't be too bad but she is not a small dog, ridge back cross.) Sufficiently knackered! Quote Wait! What............? Link to comment

SevenofSeven Posted April 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 The Cube/Week5 Explosive Deadlift Monday 04.04.2016 Warm Up: Skipping, stretching, BWSquats, Dislocations, and other silliness. Explosive Squats: 1x10@40kg 1x10@50kg 6x2@86kg (so much in love with these! ) Block Pulls: 2x5@91kg (surprisingly easy, I was like........WTF, checked the weight, yep 91kg) 2" Deficit Deadlifts: 3x6@78.5kg (started strong, then started fatiguing, noooooooo) Leg Extensions: 4x12@40kg Lunge: 3x12@20kg plate (using a plate is so much different to using the bar, really had to work to stay upright! Still wussed out and only did 6 per leg) Leg Curl: 4x10@25kg ( very lacklustre from here on out. These replaced the RDL's tonight, good choice? Dunno.) BW Dips: 4x8 (ow, and OMG how hard were these fucking things!!!) Shrugs: 4x12@31kg ( done ) Calf Raises: 4x12@31kg ( added these because you know don't skip leg day ) ABS: Laying Leg Raises: 4x10 (just fighting to finish now) Russian Twist: 4x10@10kg (phew!!!) Hollow Holds: 5x15s So bloody done by now. Happy to have finished it all and now that I have had my chicken and rice, time for a sweet coffee and bed! Quote Wait! What............? Link to comment

peelout Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 I see "Bench" and "Bench w/ pause 1" from chest". Whats the reasoning behind doing it both ways? Also, what is that exercise at the bottom left that says "Dead Paugs or Rugs" or something like that? Quote Current Challenge We are what we repeatedly do.

SevenofSeven Posted April 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 Bench, straight bench, bench with pause 1" off chest is a stop just off the chest, the pause I hold for a count of 2, it takes a lot of energy to push it back up. Similar to a bench in competition. Just makes you work harder!

SevenofSeven Posted April 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 This is the track to my property, 2km of this, it hasn't been graded for almost 3 years, it us due fir a controlled burn and if I needed an Ambulance..........forget about it. I wonder why I pay Shire rates at times. 2 Quote Wait! What............? Link to comment
peelout Posted April 7, 2016 Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 Is that a deadly python running parallel to the right side of the road about 3ft off the main road? The road actually does not look bad for 3yrs w/o grading. I'm guessing you don't get a lot of rain there or the ground is rock hard. Quote Current Challenge We are what we repeatedly do.

SevenofSeven Posted April 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 The black pipe running along the right is still a mystery, I know it supplies water, but to what? I don't know. They put it down about 4 years ago during one of our drier Summers. Gossip says it is supplying water to the lithium/tantalum and spodumene mine. (Spelling is terrible and auto correct doesn't understand) The part of the track in the photo is the best section, the corrigations aren't that bad as to rattle bits lose from any vehicles, but just past the the horizon it turns to shit, wash outs, creeks and other such delights, when it does rain it turns into a slippery, ride from hell! 3 Quote Wait!

SevenofSeven Posted April 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 Alrighty then! The Cube/Week5 Rep Squat Saturday 08.04.2016 Warm Up: Lots and lots of stretching and core stuffs. 1x10BW Squats with hands overhead, uh huh I looked ridiculous! Rep Squats: 1x10@51Kg 1x10@61KG 3x5@83.5kg (Belted up for last set, sudden onset "I am really fucking tired WTF") Front Squat: 2x3@62.5kg (again belted on the second set) Pause @ Parallel 2x6@78.5kg Bulgarian Split Squat: 3x20@30kg (10 each leg. began feeling a little better and smashed these out!) Lunge: 4x10@20kg plate (still only doing 5 per leg, seems to be some mental bullshit going on here) RDL: 4x10@40kg (these were surprisingly therapeutic............) Leg Extensions: 4x12@45kg Leg Curls: 4x10@30kg ABS: Superset Laying Leg Raises 4x12 Scissor Kicks (very slowly) 4x20 Done, and I must say finished strong but really not sure what happened right at the beginning.
