fat and happy

those of you who follow my blog may remember when it was called fat and happy Well the weight is slowly creeping back up and my lifts are going back up. On monday I worked up to a 405 three board press Wednesday I worked up to a 110 kg power clean then after some clean pulls I got a 455 conv dead lift which sucks. On saturday I did overhead presses with field stones I went up to a 70kg stone for 1 clean and 5 presses. next was log press went up to 180 x3 with the small log then went to the heavy log which is 195 for a double then 215 which was a struggle I didn't fully commit to the clean so I had to do it twice and barely got the press. This log is a bear, the handles are 4 inchs wider than the small and it is so much harded. Sunday started with 56lbs weight for height then 4 sets of 5 for tire flip with my bigger tire the extra body weight seems to help. next farmer's walk 300lbs for 100 feet 440 for 60 then 40 feet and on the video 500 for 25, I am so out of shape last was stones four stones the first time then 3 the next I was out of gas. I was thinking of going to abbotsford in may but I think I'm a little to far out of shape.

weapons of my mass destruction

So I decided today to do some metabolic training.
First off let me say today I really missed my training partners.
the plan was to do prowler with70 lbs uphill low handles 30 steps. then back with vertical handles. next two handed swings with the 56 lb weight then 20 overhead presses with a 90 lbs log,then a 30 step sled drag with 140 lbs, then 30 steps farmer's walk 300lbs and last backsquat 135lbs for 20 reps. I did an exercise then let my heart rate drop to 65% before doing the next exercise.
low handles on the prowler, sled drag, and farmers walk all got my heart rate to 95% (165 b/min)
swings and squats got me up to 90% , log press and vert handles on prowler about 85%
First round took 9 mins 2nd took 13 mins and the third I dropped log press and swings to finish in 13 mins by the third round I had to sit down to get my heart rate back down. So my goal is to get thru a full three rounds in under thirty mins.

spring break

Training has been hit and miss the last 3 weeks I missed almost two weeks of training do to exams and assignments. Nothing to much to report. Volunteered today to do massage at the women's basket ball nationals. It was great to be in a compeative atmosphere I went straight from the competition to the gym and squatted 585 for a triple. which I was very happy with considering my lack of training lately. This week was spring break for me so I got some good training in. we got finals in three weeks so likely my training will go for shit again.
