Fat Loss I
Workout A.2 (75 second rest intervals)
A1. Squat - 3 x 15 x 185
A2. Bent Over Rows - 3 x 15 x 108 (substituted for Seated Cable Row)
B1. Supine Hip Extension - 3 x 15 x BW (arms in close)
B2. Dumbbell Push Press - 3 x 15 x 50 (50 lb DB's)
C1. Rotational Lunge - 3 x 15 x 35 (35 lb plate held in front of me)
C2. Swiss-Ball Crunch - 3 x 17 x BW
D. Captain of Crush - 1 x 10 x #1
Captain of Crush - 3 x 9 x #1.5
I used my EZ Bar this time for the bent over rows (it worked out better logistically since I couldn't get the right weight combinations last time with the squat bar loaded at the same time). I've always heard that it weighs 18 lbs, so I had a 45 lb plate on each side plus the 18 lb bar = 108 lbs.
This workout felt much better than last time. It was still tough and I pushed myself pretty hard, but no feeling like I was gonna hurl. Although, the more I think about it, the more I feel like I had just been drinking too much water. With dinner (approx. 1 hour before lifting), I had a huge glass (~64 oz.) of water. Then, I drank another full glass of water as I was warming up and through the first part of my workout. I was feeling full and I could feel the water sloshing in my stomach. On top of that, I was doing a very difficult workout.
Well, I felt great today. Now it's time for a nice dinner and a movie with the wife.
The weather is supposed to be unbelievable this weekend, so I will spend much of it outside on my bike and at the track. I also have baseball practice on Sunday afternoon (I'll be coaching, not playing unfortunately).
Later.
