Kristyn's 12.28.10 workout

Well, I have to say that I was feeling pretty beat up from yesterday, so I wasn't sure how good this workout would go, but of course I just had to get in the gym and do work!

Bench Press
5x45
5x65
5x85
5x95
3x115
5x3x125
I really need to get my bench up if I'm gonna start seriously doing PL meets.  I probably couldn't even bench my bodyweight right now, that is no bueno.


OHP
5x65
3x95
2x115
2x135
1x145
1x155
0x170
0x170
I was so close on the first miss with 170, it was ridiculous!!!  I just didn't have enough leg drive, I think.  I know I'm good for at least 170 when I'm not totally beat up from the day before :-)


Dips
3x5xBW

Stretching

Kristyn's 12.27.10 workout

Well, now that I actually have the internet at my house, I can start posting my workouts again :-)  I have been doing a lot more cardio lately.  I realized after Nationals that I was completely out of shape in that arena, and it's really just not good!  I've been trying to do more reps with my weightlifting as well, though I always find myself wanting to go heavy and under sets of 5...  Perhaps I will try another PL meet one of these days...


Anyway, my workout...

Box Squats (just used a bench, not parallel for me, but best I could do)
5x45
5x95
5x135
5x185
5x205
5x225
5x255
3x275
1x295
1x305
0x315 (Eh, it was worth a shot, but the 305 was really rough off the bench, 315 would've been a miracle)
30x135 (Gotta love a good drop set!)

Stiff Leg DL
6x135
6x185
5x225
3x245

Conventional DL
3x295
1x315
1x335 w/15 second hold

Treadmill
20 mins
Yup, that's right, I've been running...  and man is it hard to run after squatting and deadlifting!

Hey Folks,

Have missed a few updates recently so here are a few videos from the pre-xmas training:





I had a week off over christmas to recover a bit from the hard training recently and had my first session back today.

First day back in the gym today, was a good session but feeling it already!!

28/12/10

Push Press- 60/6/3, 100/3/1, 120/2, 135/1,152/1 PB, 160/f Pretty happy with this, the 152k felt a walk in the park, but think I just bigged up the 160k in my head too much and messed it up. Soon though!

Seated DBs- 35/8, 42/5/8, 50/4, 40/10

HIGA MONSTER & his crazy day in Oregon 12/26/10



Had an awesome day today in the Hood River, Oregon area today!  We went up to do some snow tubing up at Cooper Spur Mountain Resort from 9am-12pm.

Then we had my goddaughter/niece's birthday party at a bowling alley from 2pm-4pm.

FINALLY, I drove down to "Big Gym" of Hood River and got a workout before dinner!  Whew!

Hope everyone had a great holiday!
