Feeling better today.
Conditioning
60 minute hike, with hills, carrying a 35 lb log on my shoulders.
Coughed up a some good ones when done, but it felt like the hike cleared out the last of the sickness.
Strength
Bench Press: 225 x 1 (PR), then 5 sets of 135 x 8 (shoulder is sore).
Also did about 30 minutes of shoulder presses, tricep exts, etc.
Yes! So going into 2007 my big three pr's are all at 225 lbs. Deadlift x5, so I'm thinking that 315 is a reasonable quest for this coming year. My squat was for a single rep, and it was UGLY. So...I'll get to where I'm comfortable with 225 before shooting for more.
Today's bench for 225 was amazingly easy, so I'm thinking I can start working toward bench days that don't drop below 200 lbs. Maybe by summer.
Hey Hans, I'm gonna' try to talk Eric into an hour on Sunday, so we may be there if your plans change.
Starting January 1st, I really want to start working on my grappling and cardio for the February State Tournament. Lot's of rolling...
