Deep Squats
My squat is so week! I tried going with 175lbs for 5X5. By the 5th rep of the very first set I was already having trouble. I’m going to cut it down to 165 for this week, and see how that goes. Once I gauge where I am, then I can worry about working my way up in weight. Carnal would be so disappointed in my skinny little legs!
175lbs 1X5…ish
165lbs was better. Still, pretty tough, but if it was easy, what would be the point, right?
165lbs 4X5
Overhead Squats
65lbs 3X8
The weight felt a little light, but this was the first time I’d ever tried overhead squats, so I was more concerned with form and balance. Balance was pretty good after a few reps. Maybe I’ll go a little heavier next week.
Glute Ham Raise 3X8
50lb Seoi-Nage 3X8
This is just a goofy little thing I came up with using the pull-down attachment on my bench. I put on some weight, have a towel fed through I think it’s one of those mountain climbing belay devices. I don’t know exactly what they are called. Anyway, I attach the towel to the cable and pull it over one shoulder then the other, doing mock seoi-nages. It’s a great twists working for the abs/obliques.

Judo
We warmed up tonight by starting out with some ne-waza. We did some escapes from kesa-gatame, basically working it as a back and forth drill. Then we worked some armlocks, including juji-gatame, ude-gatame, and ude-garami. We also worked on a variation of kata-ha-jime. These were all done with one person trying to defend and the other transitioning into the submission. After about an hour of that, we moved into some stand-up.
Deashi-harai - I’ve gotten this one down pretty good. Better, actually, than a lot of the guys that have been training for longer.
Hiza-guruma – This one is coming along well, too, once I got the footwork down.
