Another fun Sunday, 4-7-02

[b fold the truth]

Well, began the day out with lifting in the gym with some max effort lower body work. Went well. Here goes:

Bottom Position Good Mornings
several warm ups
275 x 3
325 x 3
375 x 3
408 x 1

High Bar Squats (full)
225 x 2
275 x 6 (easy)

Deadlifts
405 x 18 in 90 seconds, totally raw
.....laid on the ground for a solid 20 minutes trying to cool off..hah. Much more of a cardio set than anything else.

Farmers Walk
130 x 150ft
180 x 100
200 x 75 with 1 turn
130 x 100 with 4 turns
.....was brought to my attention that our handles are "rolling"...hence making it harder...sounds great.

Tire Flip
600lb tire x 5 warm up flips
1,000lb tire x 2 flips, 600lb tire x 5 flips...65 seconds
30lb tire x 1 flip....exhausted

Log Press
140 x 5
162 x 5
190 x 5
212 x 5
240 x 3
.....leg drive and "snap" at the top is getting MUCH better. I feel much stronger at these than I did a few months ago. You can actually hear the weight snap at the top.

Yoke Walk
345 x 150 ft with 1 turn
435 x 100ft with 1 turn
435 x 100ft with 3 turns

Hussefeld Stone Relay
155 x 50ft, 245 x 50ft, 285 x 50ft, 155 x 50ft, 245 x 50ft
.....was fun doing all of these back to back...gotta love how the wood/bark tears into your arms!!!!! I also realized that the 245 is harder than the 285 because of the thickness of it (14" I believe).

That was it...I'm pretty fried. We "thought" about doing the atlas stones...haha...but quickly talked ourselves out of it after doing the Hussefeld Relay. lol

Any thoughts or advice?????

I tell you what...pushing your stomach out may make you stronger on those...but they do NOTHING for your looks...my belly looks huge... I guess as long as I am stronger when I push my belly out as far as I can...who cares? Right?

2nd flip with the 1,000 pound tire. I used my rock climbing/harness pulling shoes today and liked them a lot for the tire flip.

Whoooaa...look at that right calf....lol

Struggling with the 30 pound Michelin...but it is an LTX...so that might make it a bit harder.

Ohh...no I am not humpbacked...haha...those are my erectors...

Speeding by with the 285 stone...gotta love how it rips the skin off of your arms...even through your shirt sleeves. And to think that I was crazy enough to do the 2 other stones again after this set...what was I thinking?

Now...where is that Icy Hot, Ice, and alleve?
