Side bridge x 30sec
V-Up x 20
Woodchop l2h x 20 per side @ 13

Clean Pull 2x3 @ 135

Sumo Deadlift 1x1 @ 315

BB Split Squat 1x6 @ 99

Romanian DL 1x6 @ 200

Notes:
Apparently hang overs make it difficult to work out the next day. The sad part was I felt fine until I started deadlifting and then the sweats and nasea hit...shit. Might have pressed a little harder on those but i didn't have my straps (curious where those went) and I was sweating too much w\ a bar that was too smooth. The rest was just a feel out of the lifts.

For those that are interested I used the "new bar" for the deadlift stuff and it really worked like a champ. Short of having no grippy stuff on it at all, it "felt" smooth as silk.

Nice workout considering your condition at the time. I give you major credit for even attempting a workout with a hangover, that is something that I would not have tried myself.

Hair of the dog is when you get drunk and hung over, then, the next day, have more booze to recover.

I said "Hey! Watch it, man!" because I have "dog" in my user name.

Hey Gob. I see those bridges. Something I never do but seeing them come up ALL over this forum makes me curious. What exactly is the benefit to performing that kind of static hold? Does it actually strengthen the core? My pee brain can't get around the idea that you can strengthen/grow muscle by just doing a static hold and not movement.

Seems bridges are pretty important to a lot of folks here though. Just wondering what the benefits are. I might have to try them if someone can give me the scoop.

Jim. It's more of a "so I don't get a hernia" type thing than a builder. If you do a squat or any standing movement your body naturally braces. Your core will hold that contraction until you stop, ideally you won't have a ton of flexion going on *most* of the time.

The bridge reflects a similar experience in a controlled manner.

So I guess there's more CNS training going on there than anything. Hmm.

Well..I've already had one hernia repaired..maybe I should try these.

When you first do some, you sure can get sore. Not all CNS, but I'm sure that's a big part.

if you can hang out for 2min then you're doing good enough. I'm not quiet as excited about chilling out that long personally. 1min is about all the boredom will allow.
