Warmup: dynamic stretching

Chins

Finished wk 1... 3 x 30reps... Next wk 3 x 40 reps. My hand are getting chewed up, but I can already notice a big difference in my pullup strength.

Pullthroughs
80x10
90x10

Back Raises 60x10x2 - meh
Ghetto GHR x10 - thumbs down

x10 - band around chest

Bb Shrugs w/ straps
225x17
225x15

One & two arm hangs w/ straps. I'm a little too tall but it still felt good.

PreWO: 3tsp BCAAs, 1 serv Gatorade, 1/2 serv True Protein mix (10:5)
PWO: 2 serv True Protein (35:18), banana, w/ skim milk
 
I'm definately counting down until I'll have access to some serious equipment and be able to build a home gym. One of my primary criteria when onling house hunting is a big ass garage. StrengthWorks is cheap, but the hours kinda suck. Perfect excuse for a home gym.
 
just move close to me. we just resigned our lease for another year. so move to mesa.
 
Zero - We'll probably be in Ahwatukee... I want to live near a trailhead.


Misses - My lungs were mad at me after that set. Might have to challenge Urban or Revok to a Metcon Masochism contest.

Metcon complex challenge ideas?

Clean, squat, press...1 wheel for 10 min
Bears: Clean, front sqt, PP, Back Squat, PP, drop.( 1 rep ea) ...1 wheel for 10 min
One-armed Db C&R...50lbs x100
Power snatch to OHS @ 95lb in 10 min
Bb Burpees to Bb High pulls
 
nooo tuckee is like a good 30-40mins away from me. i cant sponge off your home gym like that.
 
Doesn't the 101 go straight to Ahwatukee from Chandler now - that would be a quick shot. How far east are you in Mesa? I used to live on the Tempe /Mesa border (Broadway & the 101/ Dobson).

I live on greenfield and university right now. about 10 mins from dobson. it might just depend exactly where you lived in tukee.
 
We're going to try and get something that borders the South Mt preserve if we can (buying this next year we could take advantage of the sub-prime home loan fiascio). I grew up in Upstate NY and had no neighbors, so Phx makes me a little kookie sometimes. At least I'd like one side of my property without a neighbor. Plus I'd love to drag a tire around in the dirt and be near a trailhead.

Did you grow up in the East Valley?

When I first moved to AZ in 98-99 I had no money. My first apartment was in Sunnyslope. Yuck!
 
yeah i grew up here i guess. i've lived in mesa since 3rd grade.

i dated a girl for about a year and she lived in tukee, nice area and good for trails. its on the expensive side though. well...for me
 
I can finally be a little picky...I took me until this year. I'm 31 :mad:
 
hmm im 23....ive still got time to go i guess....sweetness...i want to live in mesa though. i like it here. i just dont want to work out in phoenix, thats the hard part.

so when are you coming out again?
 
Looking like April...thats when my contract is up. They'll probably renew me, but the location I'm at is being relocated to Berkley, CA in a year. I took this position because I knew I would be forced out of a job eventually (ie: force us to move to AZ). Otherwise it would hard to quit a good job here to move where the prospects aren't as nice (but it sure is cheaper :D). And I love the heat!!!
 
Totally forgot! Yep, the wife wins this year...X-Mas in AZ.
