Wednesday - Original TTFL Workout B
More evilness from Craig. Squats supersetted with chin-ups!!
!! Admit it, Craig, you designed that program while you were really, really pissed off at someone, didn't you? [img]smile.gif[/img]
It was hard (and was also the longest TTFL workout I've done so far), but I got through it. Highlights:
- Squats: 3x8 @ 225. Not bad by themselves, but when supersetted with
- Chin-ups: 3x8. I was ready to be done after I got through those. 6/2, 4/4, 3/5 on the good/negative reps. I'm definitely getting stronger with the chins. I can't wait for the day when I can do 8 straight!
- Split squats - these suck too, but they're not as bad as a full lunge. Although after heavy squats, I could only do the 50 pounds with them (sorry, OldGuy, I'm putting the skirt on for a bit [img]tongue.gif[/img] ).
- As I mentioned above, this was the longest TTFL workout I've done so far, so I didn't get a chance to get my HIIT in. I have a hockey game tonight, though, so I'm going to substitute that for my bout on the treadmill.
- One more workout until I get an extra day of rest! I need it, but I want to wait until the weekend to get the extra day. It's just an anal thing with me, I think, but I like the MWF workout pattern.
- I am waiting until next week to start the Core workout. Not sure if I will do intervals on those days yet. It'll most likely depend on how much time I have, and how I feel.
- I think that my arms, chest, and quads are looking a little bigger, although I won't measure until Friday. I think that it may just be an illusion, though. As the gut gets smaller, my muscles look more defined and bigger. I like it.
I see that Craig posted a link in his newsletter to my log, so I'd like to welcome anyone who stopped by. I'd also like to say that, so far, Craig's workout plan has been
extremely productive for me, and I've only just finished the beginner routine. It's worth every penny. In fact, it's worth a whole lot more, so if you're still undecided whether this program is the right one for you, either PM me here, or send an email to Craig - I'm sure he would be more than happy to answer your questions.
Okay, brown-nosing over. [img]smile.gif[/img]
