So I just got the book and finally got around to starting the program
I humbled myself, dropped the weight, and made sure my form was as good as I could possibly get it (I'll tackle the higher weights in due time haha). My goal for the "Break-In Program" is to build a firm foundation that I might not have done years ago... I guess time will tell if it works!
Break-In Workout A - Monday March 31, 2008
Squat:
2x15 w/ 135lbs.
Superset with full rest
Static lunge:
2x15* w/ 75lbs.
2-point DB row (elbow out):
2x15* w/ 30lbs.
Superset with full rest
Pushup:
1x25 w/ BW
1x18 w/ BW
Swiss-ball crunch:
2x20 w/ BW
*each leg/arm
Notes:
- Overall, not a bad workout, I feel like I could go up with the DB rows as they were fairly easy.
- Squats were humbling because I never really go that high (rep-wise) so I'm glad I kept the weight down. I felt fairly fatigued after the squat/lunge combo so that was great.
- I'm looking forward to workout B tomorrow
- I'll throw up pics soon so I can compare
