[Brad Morris]

Hey mate good to see you in here again, I have been a bit slack myself with my log. So training is feeling good?

 

[finnegan]

Yeah, no complaints. I'm still keeping a log, just offsite.

 

[finnegan]

[finnegan]

Sledge Work:
See how many times I can sledgehammer a tire in 10 minutes using a 16'bs sledge.
Previous Best: 356.

Total: 432 swings in 10 minutes, +76 swing PR.

Yep, it was a PR.

 

[Centaur]

Holy shit, nice PR. That's like 25% improvement. you do like 10/side then switch?

Vitamin V

Vicodan?

 

[finnegan]

No real set pattern, other than the first 100 was 25 per side.

Vitamin V =Vodka
Vitamin R= Rum

 

[akakabuto]

Crazy swings.. I thought V stood for viagra haha

 

[Centaur]

At first I thought it was vagina.

 

[finnegan]

No viagra. I did just make a purchase from Canada, though.

Tues: (PM)

MMA Skill Training/ Conditioning

Bas Rutten All Around Fighting CD

3 three min rounds, 1 min rest (two of those on a really shitty Wavemaster heavybag, last one was shadowboxing out of frustration)

Speedbag
3 three min rounds,

5 mile interval cycling
2 min on level 3
2 min on level 5
2 min on level 7
1 min level 3
1 min level 5
1 min balls to the wall
repeat
Total time: 15:30ish + 2 1/2 min cooldown

Impressions:
Damn that wavemaster sucks. It refuses to stay at the right height, so I was fighting a 5'8 guy at most. I ended up shadowboxing instead, and utilized the mirrors.
Speedbag was fun. Never really played around w/ one before. Stuck to really basic rhythms and just worked on getting the speed up.

 

[mschatz]

The speedbag is addictive

 

[finnegan]

205 x 5 5
225 x 5/ 5
235 x 4/ 5
245 x 3/ 5

DB Back Flys

Impressions:
Giving Urban's program a shot. We'll see how it goes. I"m worried about the high rep stuff due to my genetics for putting on muscle, so I'll have to watch my post workout nutrition closely to avoid hypertrophy.
Rest between sets: 2 min.

 

[finnegan]

Are these fucking ads screwing up my training log?

 

[zop]

What do you mean about the ads? I don't notice a thing.

 

[krellik]

You -do- use firefox or similar Finnegan??

Sherdog is totally fucking unbrowsable without it, seriously I have got more shit on my computer from this site than I ever have from a porn site until I started running it on firefox.

 

[finnegan]

Yeah, I use firefox. I think the forum was just glitching, as usual.

 

[finnegan]

Hmm. Just realized I hadn't posted my fight vid in here for critique. Feel free to comment or ask questions.
