Lower, Core, Cardio


I went to town today and didnt get back till around 7, and I was too lazy to do cardio, and my abs are still hurting from the medicineball slams yesterday, so heres what i did.

I started by doing the monthly snatch challenge, even though i did upper body yesterday(and did the snatch challenge yesterday) but today was the last day, so i had to do it and post up a better score.

3 minutes of snatches!
104 reps, 20lbs.= 2080 lbs.


Hindu squats1x25
Survival Drops 2x25
Squats 1x25
Ceiling/Floor(jumpsquats) 1x25


yup. thats it. i skipped my cardio and core stuff.

[Tucker Smith]

oops. double post.

[ghostwipe]

No offense, buy why are you doing those gay weights? It looks like you're getting plenty of cardio in even without it. Why not get stronger on the way to improved cardio?

[Tucker Smith]

What do you mean? like cut out all the weights and bodyweight stuff and just do strictly cardio?

[ghostwipe]

Sorry, I was just curious why you weren't including heavy weights in your program.

[Tucker Smith]

its because i dont have very much weight to work with right now. soon im gonna build a sandbag and hopefully get my hands on a tractor tire and a sledge.


so why do you say i should cut out the bodyweight stuff? or did i misinterpret what you said

[Tucker Smith]

Sunday- my day of rest.


im gonna go fishing in a little bit, hopefully ill catch a whole shatload of fish so i will have some good food for the week(or at least a few days.)

booyah.

Upper & Cardio day...

Well, I didnt catch any fish yesterday, it started raining as soon as i got there so I said fuck it and went home after about 15 minutes. anyway, on to the training!
Todays training basically sucked. Couldnt do very much cardio cuz my knee was hurtin, couldnt do pushups cuz mywrist was hurtin. GHEY!

so heres what i did.

Shadowboxing 1x3 min. Round(warmup)
Curls 1x25 (15lb. dumbbells)
Medicineball Spikes 2x25
Burpees - 10 (wrist and knee wouldnt allow more)
Floorpress 1x25 (15 lb. dumbbells)
Floorpunch 1x15 (15lb. dumbbells)
FloorFlyes 1x15 (15 lb. dumbbells)


I know, today was a sissy day, hopefully ill be able to make up for it tommorrow. and hopefully ill be able to get a sandbag and a chinup bar soon so i can transition to a strength phase. Oh yeah, im gonna try and get a tractor tire and sledge as well. I feel like my muscular endurance phase only needs to go for a few more weeks before im ready to go to a strength workout, so yeah... Im looking forward to being able to work with some REAL weight.



This is starting to become more like a diary than a training log... its pretty much me making notes to myself.

whateva.

Core and Cardio day

Shadowboxing 1x5 min. round (warmup)
Kneeplank 2x90 sec.
Sidebridge 2x90 sec.
Swiss Crunch 2x25
Superman 1x25
Reach N Catch 1x25
Sidebend 2x25 (15 lb. Dumbbell)
SwissTwist 2x25

I was shooting for 20 min. of cardio but my right knee is still a little sore. i need to quit being so fat so my knees can function properly.

Also, today is the second day that I have been using Apple Cider Vinegar PWO, and I feel great, I havent noticed a huge difference in fat loss yet, but as far as muscle recovery, im amazed!



that is all.
goodbye.
