Thursday Training
Double Day
AM:
A) Weighted Chin Ups (10% of Body Weight) @ 21X1; AMRAP(-1); rest 3 mins x 3
B) Pendlay Rows @ 32X2; 8-10 reps, rest 3 mins x 3
C) TGU - 1 Heavy Rep Every Min for 8 Minutes/Arm
PM:
4 Sets @ 85%
Run 400 Meters
15 Box Jumps - 24"
AM Results
A) For some reason I did Dips instead of Chins here.. All sets done with One of the Big Chains over my neck. (estimated @ 22#)
- 10/8/7 the pause at the bottom of this movement started to take its toll on my tri's in the last set
B) 95# x 10/ 105# x 10/x 10
C) 7 rounds done with 1.5 pood, 1 round done with 2 pood - Right arm felt much more stable with the heavy KB than my left. Goal is to be able to do all sets with a 2 pood in the near future. Really would like to build that upper body/shoulder strength.
PM Results
Time - 10:22
My legs felt horrible but I focused on form during the runs and that seemed to take my mind off it.. Keep the pace consistent on all the runs.. first time I haven't stopped or slowed down during a running workout. All jumps were unbroken.

100 Wall Ball Shots - 4:42
PM Results
Bilateral Breathing was pretty easy.. Much better on my right side.. May need to look into ear plugs to keep the water out, other than that this was easy.
Underwater attempts - I found a pretty efficient way attack these max attempts but I'm sure there is something more efficient out there. I was consistently swimming 23-25 meters on each attempt.
This last ten minutes of freestyle swimming really fatigued my shoulders.

B) Pendlay Rows @ 32X2 6-8, rest 3 x 3

:20 Standing Airdyne Sprints, rest 5 minutes x 6
Results
A) 8/6/5/5
B) All @ 95# x 8
C) All@ 15# x 8
Shortened the rest periods on the sprints... Legs were very sore from yesterday but I had a lot of sprinting power in :20 compared to my last attempt at :30 and I also felt I recovered better and fast. So my rest periods went from 5 minutes to 4. Did a pretty good job of keeping RPM around 95 - 100 on each sprint.
Taking a rest day tomorrow.. I slept horribly last night and I'm very sore. I've been training around 10:00am and now switching to 5:00am workouts is taking its toll on me. I'm going to reassess this early morning training and see if I can't move the majority of my training to after work. I usually don't have the energy levels in the PM like I do in the AM but I feel like that is turning around. I feel better all day now when I get more sleep and I think training in PM might be better for my overall health and fitness goals.
