Tuesday, July 26th, 2011

Sleep was rough last night...only about 5 hours before a long day prior to training....

TRAINING:
A. Build to a tough 3 close grip bench press @30X1
B. Build to a tough 3 strict chin ups @30X1
C1. AMRAP (-1) 135# Bench Press; rest 1 minute
C2. AMRAP (-1) Strict bodyweight chin ups; rest 3 minutes x3
D. GHD Sit Ups w/10# plate across chest - 10 reps; rest 1 minute x3

RESULTS:
A. 210# (Failed @220#)
B. 85# attached
C1. 21-15-13
C2. 13-13-10
D. Completed

Well definitely wasn't at 100% today because I trained late in the day after a long, tiring day...Haven't done close grip bench in a while and it showed, 210# not bad but wanted more...the 30X1 tempo on that killed me.  Very happy with completing 3 strict chins @30X1 with 85# attached, real strong on those.  C1/C2 couplet was rough but liked the push/pull aspect of it, very beneficial...GHD Sit ups were good end to the day, felt easier than I thought with the 10# plate, can up the reps to 12-15 next time around.

Well, tomorrow is the last day of this training cycle and I will be taking several days off to rest and recover before moving onto the next one...remember we get better when we rest, don't go more than a couple months without taking 5-7 days off, you will always benefit in the long run - we all need the physical and mental break.  Great training cycle coach, looking forward to the next progression!
