Alan H's training log

[Alan H]

Today was a core and upper body day, I don't want to hammer my legs with no recovery time.


***sit-ups, on the incline board with ten pound plate on my chest...15


**bench rows...I've been thinking about moving up to 100 pounds, so I tried it today. I got 8 x 100 on the right hand and 6 x 100 on the left hand. I've got the mojo in the shoulders and trunk to pull the weight, I just can't quite hold on to the dumbells. 100 pounds is pretty darned heavy. So I think I'll go back down to 90 for a while

**curls... 100 x 8, 100 x 6

**Hanging leg lifts... 15, then later I was recruiting more throwers so I'd had a break, so I did 12 more because they build character

**incline dumbell press: 60 x 8, 70 x 6...and then I couldn't jerk the 80's up into position *grrrr* probably haven't completely recovered from the last workout went I went 3 x 80, so I went and did pushups...

**push-ups, hands on wobble boards, feet on 20 inch box x 15

**lateral pulls on the Roman Chair: 15 each side with 40 pounds

**upright rows...haven't done these in forever, and I'm wary of hurting the ulnar tendon in my right elbow again, so I just did 8 x 80

** bench dips....2 x 15 with 50 pound dumbell in my lap...moved up from 45 pounds!

** core crushers....10 each direction with 8 pound medicine ball

** sitting flys on the machine. The weight on the machine is arbitrary, but I did 8 x 160 and then ALLLLLmost closed off 7 x 175, couldn't **quite** close off #7.
