Today is Saturday

12/17/2011

Today is for squats. I'll run hills today as well. It is like 60 degrees in North Carolina. This is perfectly acceptable to me, as I hate winter and cold (childhood trauma), but this is going too far. Why is it so warm? It hasn't been cold yet -- my wife and I have only turned the heat on like three times. It's almost X-Mas -- wow. I'll be running hills in shorts...shorts!..in December!!

Anyway -- Squats:
5x5 @70% (350)

This is week one of 5's. I'm using a conservative training max of 500, so it should be pretty easy to hit all reps, etc... for the full cycle. Next week will be 4x5 @ 75%, then 3x5 @ 80%, then three weeks of triples, doubles, etc... It's all mapped out, so I'll be running on autopilot.

Good Mornings (Buffalo Bar):
3x10 -- slow and light, but going slow made them tougher, so light is a bit misleading. Good work

Step ups (Buffalo Bar):
3x10

Sit ups:
3x10

I watched The Big Lebowski for the umpteenth time last night. I've been watching this movie since I was in high school. I always find something new that tickles me...this time it was:



I have seen this scene a dozen times, but never laughed as hard as last night.
