Strength in Interesting Places

[dexbot]

Also, being kidnapped, taken to the tribal areas of Pakistan and being chained to a metal bar can interfere with a proper strength programme. Unless the metal bar they chain you to happens to be part of a Power Rack. And you have access to a bar, plates, etc. Even then, I gather that the nutrition in those circumstances isn't best for muscle growth and recovery.

They have chicken and goat, I see that in the movies!

Stay save man.

Jaunty's Patented Impression of an Obese 80 Year Old With Emphysema

Yes, that's right... some conditioning. Just a little bit because I am not in shape at all at all at all:

1) C2 rower 300m sprints (sub 2 mins per 500m): 1m 16s, 1m 13s, 1m 9s, 1m 13s (2-3 min breaks)
2) Freestyle barbell complexes: 4x90 seconds (60-90 second rests)
2) Yoga- 3 x sun salutation A, short version of Ashtanga standing sequence, a few seated postures

I wanted to do 50 burpees as well, but after the barbell complexes I was feeling somewhat nauseous, so I decided that discretion was the better part of valour. Probably will be able to manage more next time.

Did some yoga instead of third set of conditioning work, and very glad that I did. Felt very good. If I could do this little post-workout routine once a week, and a longer routine once a week, it would be great.

Notes
- First set of squats was easier than I was expecting. Not exactly easy, but I did them fine and could have handled a bit more weight. It's the mid/later sets that are the killer on 10s day. Perhaps because of depletion of muscle glycogen and ATP/PCr stores. Anyway, I was pleased, especially as I got through these as at a good speed (23 minutes is about the norm, and this time I messed up my misloading the bar on the last set and doing a few reps- could have got this in under 20 minutes easily).
- OHP was fine, didn't feel heavy, although some very slight fatigue issues when I rested for less than a minute between sets. Definitely increase my working max next cycle. I feel that Tossung singles is going to work, but it may take 3/4 cycles through to make I get a decent bump on my 1RM.
- Not much to report on the other exercises. The lying tricep extensions were hard and I didn't get great ROM at first, but after a while I realized it is just a case of getting used to it and having confidence. The triceps feel very weak when the weight is far back, but the shoulder extension function doesn't feel compromised, so you can get the weight moving no problem. Next time I won't add 2kg, though, probably will add only 1kg. Then 2kg again the time after.
- Wanted to do some curls, but decided to save them for Tuesday, when I won't just have been doing heavy (for me) chins.

i can understand them beeing heavy, it IS heavy. My god, 5x10 (50 reps!) is just brutal for squatting!

By the way, have you seen that bodyrock.tv chick?

maybe you could pick up some exercizes to do "on the road" when you are travelling?

Example of a workout:

Yeah, I have seen her. But I don't generally need an 'on the road' workout. I am usually staying either in my guest house, or at home, and I have proper gyms in both places. She doesn't really give great eye candy value either- I don't really like women with muscles and visible abs.

Despite the fact that she is not my type, I will have to investigate this- simply because of my passion for extending my knowledge.

the self fingering vids of her were made before she got jackt.
maybe pierced clits are not her taste, too, so she decided to do stop fingering that disfigured and crippled organ and started to work out.

Randomness Day

1. 50 burpees in 5 mins 12 seconds
2. C2 rower intervals- 2000m 60 seconds fast/90 seconds slow (time about 10 minutes)
3. Some random yoga
4. Abs purgatory- upto 8, upto 6
5. Power clean form practice- 20kg x5, 50kg x3, 60kg x2, 65 kg x2

The original plan was to do the yoga and then get gone, but one of our security guys came down to our gym for the first time. I was talking to him a bit then he asked for a spot on the bench, so I came up with some stuff to do between sessions of spotting him.

As expected given my current conditioning, the burpees and rowing were tough. I went pretty slowly with the burpees and only speeded up at the end. At least I actually did them. But I didn't have much left in the tank for the rowing intervals- for the sprints, in the later ones I couldn't get the speed under 2mins/500m, which is my normal target. At least the yoga was quite useful- I definitely stretched more and better than I did last time.

 

[JauntyAngle]

whoops i may have broken a law.
i retract my previous statements. jaunty my older imaginary brother says its susana spears. i never did.

Tell your imaginary older brother that he is a pervert, and to stop leading you astray.

"extending my knowledge"... is that what the kids call it these days?
