Yeah not entirely sure that im going to do it now though. I feel that i really need to concentrate on what i am trying to achieve this year with the competition. Im putting so much hard work and effort 5days a week into the gym , spend most of the wkend shattered. Same as getting another motorbike, i just dont want anything to jeoardise what my main goal is. So the run may have to wait and it may have to be something that i do a little later on.
Training was really good tonite, did legs and hell do they ache, jelly legs, shaking legs, but was awesome workout.
Did squats with olympic bar, x2 10kg, for x10 reps, x2 x10kg +x2 5kg for 8reps , and x2 10kg, x2 5kg and x2 smaller ones for x6 reps was wicked. db seated squats, step ups, bench press and leg extensions with pulses (they kill)
Sounds a great WO, Jo. I also did leg work today amongst others. Leg Press , 200 reps at 175kgs, then staggered to the next exercise! I'm gonna start my own thread about training as I've been hijacking yours! Whats the "leg extensions with pulses"? As you gather I'm a newby to bb.
Would be good if you did a training thread.... i could come hijack yours
Leg extensions with pulses, do ten normal reps, then ten smaller reps then push it all the way up and hold it. x3 sets of them and my legs are killing. !!!!
Another good evening in the gym last nite. The only prob being that i was sooo sore from my legs workout the nite before. They still ache today, my shoulders are killing. Might miss gym tonite and go saturday, due to how much i hurt and ache. Really good workouts though.
Great reading. Glad to know you're aching as well( I certainly am! ) But I was always encouraged in the army to do more exercise when my muscles ached. And it worked. I still remember in training in North Wales in the middle of Feb. being dragged out of bed when it was minus 5, and made to do a route march of 20 miles. If that wasn't bad enough, our muscles were absolutley STIFF and cramped form the same procedure the day before. However the soreness and aches soon wore off after about 10 minutes of AGONY! BTW I've started a "Madeira Jon'c Log" so you can plan a hijack.
