Phase One
Week 1 gym training.
Wide grip flat bench warmup (1x10
115lbs) (1x10 145lbs )( working sets 3x10) 175lbs 2x10) (180lbs 1x10 ) ( 215lbs 1x5
(extra set because i was feeling great and knew i had plenty left in the tank for 1harder set ) ( slight arch butt kept on the bench for every set with control on the way down and up ( full range of motion )
DB Shoulder Press (35lb DB 2x10warm up)
( working sets ( 40lb 1x10 ) ( 45lb 1x10 )
(50lb 1x10 ) keeping good posture ( full range of motion) I could Have did more sets but didn't ( need to be patient and trust the program )
Overall I felt strong on these sets.
Dips ( body weight 219lbs 3x10 )
Little shakes in the body not due to lack of strength I believe it is due to lack of quality sleep and pushing to hard ( need to learn to Deload and rest when needed ( my sleep is the key other then my food intake) I feel with the first phase of this program it will be good for me this isn't nearly as taxing as the program I normally do that should work into my benefit, I can go a bit harder on cardio having more in the tank.
Incline DB Chest Press ( 40lb 1x10)
(45lb 1x10 ) ( 50lb 1x10 )
Felt strong on these doing chest or shoulders I always have to concentrate harder ( right shoulder likes to try and give out alot sooner then left due to my surgery on it from 2016) no matter we push on, always moving forward. ( my all time max bench was 275lbs for 4 ( I don't need to work up that high as long as I can hit my body weight or 5lbs over for 5-10 reps I count that as a major win.
45 minutes up hill cardiovascular work today. boy i was sweating every damn ounce of warter out today. I went and walked 2.30 for distance ( speed 3.4) calories burned 521 total)
I did all this training while fasted today, I still need to go home Have a quick lunch and then begin the meal preparation.
