Pull-overs

Some stretching in the steam room while drinkin' my shake and some electralite (sp? firefox ain't givin' what I want) replacement.


PWO body weight = 208



Karate class, with some throw practice before. Neither I or the guy I was workin' with could nail the throw right. Both blackbelts I sparred with tonight were impressed and very complimentary again, and I was pretty wore out by then. Apparently I've not only knocked the rust off, but actually improved my striking, even while not focusin' on training...

Cool down stretches



Bad workout day. By the time I got to the weight room, I didn't particularly feel like liftin', but knew I needed to do somethin'. Sumo deads felt weird. Don't really like the thought of my arms hangin' that close to my crotch with that much weight on 'em. Also awkward to lock out that way. I think I'll do rack pulls for lockout assistance instead.


Anyone got pointers on how to get more sleep? :D
