I just got 40 more pounds for my dumbbells.

Squats (read below)

2x5 chins
50 strikes with the sledgehammer

Since I just got more weight for my dumbbells, I just loaded on all the new weight and went for it. Considered I was squatting 100 pounds before, adding 30 more pounds was more than I could handle. (I am still a noob to strength training)

I did manage to get up the 130, but it was not pretty.

So then I played around with the amounts until I hit the right amount. (110)

So I learned a few lessons: (1) Only a little bit of weight should be added at a time, (2) I started at 60 pounds and I am now at 110.

Progress is progress. Nice work.

Thank you.

I am learning the amount of weight is something which comes with time.

(As much as I would like to have a 400 pound squat now)

Boxing class.

Worked on footwork, hooks, moving off the ropes and the 1/2.

We put on the body protectors and landed jabs and hooks to the body.

I picked the biggest guy there as my partner. I took all of his shots. Which made me feel good. (He was not going all out)

Even though it was my day off, I went for a 45 min. jog.

Nothing.

I got home late and stuff had to be done around the house.

Nothing else got done, weight-wise. (I did get my warm-up squat set done)

I did get 15 min. of cardio in.

I need to tweak my workout.

I need some more squating and pressing over head. (which I will see what I can do with my bad elbow)
