Work out B Weights going up
Completed Stage one workout b today.
Is there anyone else who needs to have their mp3 player blasting so they won't hear their knees squeak when working out? Its a mental thing for me. It doesn't hurt a bit, but if I hear the squeak, I won't go as heavy. I think it freaks out anyone who is near me when I'm working out.
Deadlifts WU 45/8, WU 95/12, 115/12, 115/ 12 60 sec rest
I completed two warm up sets today to see how the 95 felt at 12 reps. I wasn't sure if I wanted to up the weight 10 pounds or 20. The actually weight wasn't too bad on my back and legs, but I was losing the bar the second set. Need to find a way to keep the bar. I would use the one hand over one hand under grip, but I read somewhere that is not helping me learn the correct form. Not sure who it effects my form, but I may need to use it the next time.
Alternating Sets
Dumbbell Shoulder Press 15/12, 15/12 60 sec rest
By far my hardest exercise. My neck didn't strain too much this week.
Widegrip Lat Pull downs 27.5/12, 27.5/12 60 sec rest
I used a different widegrip machine and I think the weight that is listed is suppose to be doubled or its in kg. The only two explanation on why I went from 40 down to 27.5.
Alternating Sets
Lunge 15/12, 15/12
I ran through these this week. Felt so much easier than last week for some reason. Im going to go up to 20 (deep breath) next session
Crunch on Swiss 15lbs over head 2 sets of 10.
This is a long stretch till my next workout. Its hard not to go in the gym a day early to lift, but I will wait till Saturday (unless there is a kickboxing class).
Happy Training....
