The Rich Man's Gym |
Tonight's training took a turn for the better as I hit a target. 3 ladders up to 5 reps in the 1-Arm-Kettlebell Military Press with a 32 kg 'Bell. When you do the math out that's 45 reps per side, 90 total and 2,880kgs lifted (72 pounds x 90 reps is 6480 for those not with the whole metric thing)
In addition I followed each rung up with a pull up ladder and matched that with Feet Together Squats. The only difference on that is I doubled the volume for the squats. I'm practicing lowering myself slowly and pausing at the bottom. The Feet Together Squat is also a great exercise for people in the jock strap business because it's a perfect example of "make sure your hammer and sickles are in the right spot before trying to bounce your ass off your calves." Otherwise it was a great workout!
So volume is up. Ya-Whoo! Next time I'll see if I can get 4 rounds.
Normally I'd wrap things up with some Bulldog Swings and some kind of ring push up or pull over, but instead (and on a whim) I thought, lets do walking lunges and push ups. Looked good on paper, but my legs were already smoked from the Feet Together Squats so I definitely earned my meat and veggies tonight.
The music was The Young Dubliners. Always a treat and inspiration. Get's my Celtic blood-a-pumpin.
