Thurs, 7 Jul 16
Well midterms are over with, mostly. Jury is out on how they went - anything is possible. I still have one more online one to take, but it has not been posted yet so I have a brief respite. We had wheelchair training after taking the last midterm at 0730 this morning and I learned that wheelies are much harder than one would think and how to crash and burn with style should I ever flip a chair over when I'm in one.
Clean Complex
1xPVC
Deadlift
10x45
5x135
5x225
3x315
1x365
3x405
3x465 - And this set felt completely like trying to thread a needle with a log of poo.
3x520 - I was actually amazed I did this set after how bad the last one felt. I actually felt pretty good doing it, and would have kept going except that I was twisting my right hip forward coming up and that is exactly how I have screwed up the right side of my pelvis a few times, so since I knew going into today how awful and tight and pathetic I was from studying over 40 hours in 4 days, not to mention taking 7 hours worth of exams, I called it at 3 reps.
SS Yoke Bar High(ish) Box Squats
3x15x225 - Not really that high, but a little above parallel and with a pause on the box rather than touch and go. I knocked it down to 3 sets from 5 today due to all of the aforementioned reasons.
Band Assisted GHR/Seated SS Yoke Bar Calf Raise
3x{10x BW-micro band/20x205}
