Pain: Thanks :2: The 225 was actually a little easier than I wanted, I should've gone with 275 or 315, but oh well, I was very happy with the PB :hsughr:

Prince: :xyxthumbs:

Lionheart: Thanks bud :tiphat:

Alright, most of my schoolwork is winding down for the week. I have a test today which I'm mostly not ready for, but I have a few hours of studying ahead so hopefully I can pull one outta nowhere. Anyway, hopefully the wind-down translates into some running :hsughr: Just gotta order me some good weather now...

This was from yesterday. I didn't think I was going to get to train because I had to do some homework, but I figured it out and wrote the code for it in an hour so I managed to get this in:

Thanks Miami :tiphat:

Alright, I did a short session today for two reasons:

1) It was right after an ROTC workout where we ran, did some bodyweight leg exercises, and a few sets of pushups, so my legs and tris were already starting to fatigue, and today was legs and tris day so it worked out, and...

2) I had an hour between the time that workout ended and the time I have to be somewhere else...which is 10 minutes from now.

20 March 2008

Close-Stance Hack Squats Up on the Toes

Unsure of the weight because it was a weird counterbalancing type, but I did 3 sets of 10 reps.

40 lbs x 10
40 lbs x 8
40 lbs x 8

Prone Leg Curls
95 lbs x 10

Aftermath:
Should be alright. I feel like they got worked enough.

Last year this time I would never have thought I would be adding weight to my pullups, or at least not as much as I am. I also would've never thought I'd enjoy training back, but those days have come. Now if only I could start liking legs day...

Miami: Yeah...it doesn't happen too often to me, but when I do accidently take a nap I'm out for a while :49:

h0ke: I'm not so sure about that. I liked being able to crush Line on calf raises, but since he's gone home there's no motivation at all :tear: That and my back is all jacked up so my strength suffers on squats.

Lionheart: Two DBs, total of 80lbs :xyxthumbs:

No nap today. Here's my run:

Prince: Thanks bud :2:

Pain: Yeah, I was happy with the run. I need to update my running profile on my GPS tracker, though; I probably only burned like 760 calories because I've lost some weight since I last updated :hsughup: And I don't know about UK Marines, but the American version just love love love pullups and I imagine your training will be the same, so yes you should get on that :hsughr:

Dan: I ran when I was 225 :hsughr: How much do you weigh?

Rocky: Thanks Rocky Poo. I do it for you :gaygay:

Went home, had some creatine, protein, dinner, waited around a bit, and then:

Swimming
I swam for about a half hour. I did maybe just over 1000 yards. Man I'm out of swimming shape. It's brutal.

Aftermath:
I hope that shoulder thing wasn't a big deal. I didn't get a spotter for the 255 set and when I went to lift it off I pulled on the back of my shoulder a bit. I sat in the hot tub after swimming to try and relax it :hsughr: It feels fine now, I think it'll be ok.

[/COLOR]Mak: Hey bud. Shoulder seems fine today :xyxthumbs:

h0ke: Will do. You're not from VT, are you?

Here's my run. I ran clockwise around the map here:

24Mar08-1.jpg


Key:
Just kind of made up this part as I went along. It was on a golf course's golf cart paths and a bike path.

This is where I pwned some n00b running ahead of me. I spotted him at the blue 'X' when I was at the beginning of the blue rectangle. I passed him before the end of the blue rectangle. :hsughr:

Wasn't going to run this part but decided what the hell and tacked it on to the end.

I'm going in for legs and tris in a bit. Hopefully my strength isn't too affected by the run, I had a fairly sizable meal after running.

My shoulder is still a little messed up; I could tell when I was shifting weights around and when I was squatting. I'll just be careful tomorrow during shoulders.
