After a week at the Chiro for my back.....and a solid weight gain over Christmas....I'm back at it...abet more slowly than before. Back was a mess for about 3-4 days. Chiro took care of that. Still a bit sore but functioning. Did an easy 6.5 miles on the Bike. Felt slow and awkward. Hopefully after a few days I will feel better. No lifting for a while to rest the back. |

Did a couple of easy rides to finish last week. Rested over the weekend except for some golf. Today I went tot he gym and did the following: Bench 10x135, Lats 10x90, Leg Press 10x215 as a warm up. Then the following: 4 Rounds of 12 Reps on the Bench x 165, Lats x105, Leg Press x235. Started the New Year easy to test my back. Didn't want a reoccurrence of the last time in the gym. Felt pretty good. Hopefully a ride tomorrow. |

After a decent round of Golf this morning, I went to the gym and did the following: Bench 10x135, Lats 10x90, Leg Press 10x215 as a warm-up. Then 4 Rounds for time of Lat Pulls 8x135, Bench 10x185, Leg Press 12x275, Core ABs 15x80......time was 8:18. Good workout. Took a couple of really deep breathes that slowed me down a bit....could have gone faster....I think! HR Peaked at 154 and averaged 128. Felt pretty good. Hope to get an easy Bike ride done tomorrow. |

My wife got me a Microsoft Fit Watch for Christmas. Measures everything...lol. Trying to get my steps for the day done so I went for a 1.1 mile walk in 18 minutes. Legs felt the pace. Will try to walk every day that I don't play golf.....lol. |

Went to the gym today and di the following: Warm up as usual. Then for time, the following: Leg Press 25x255 Lat Pulls 25x120 Bench 25x180 Core ABs 25x80 Dead Lifts 25x160 Seated DB Press 25x30s Core ABs 25x80 Bench 25x165 (15, 5, 5) Lat Pulls 25x105 (20,5) Leg Press 25x255 Total time was 13:27......very hard and very tired. Could not have done more. Knew I couldn't do the same weight on Bench and Lats, so I lowered the weight and still struggled. Very hard workout. May need an adult beverage to help recover.....lol. |
