Day 11/63 – Workout Log – Weight Lifting
Today I went over to the gym at Kombat Arts for a weight lifting workout. Made some progress in all of my lifts – here are my results:
Squats: 5 x 45, 5 x 135, 5 x 175, 5 x 175, 5x 175 (+20lbs on the work sets)
Barbell Bench Presses: 5 x 45, 5 x 115, 5 x 135, 5 x 135, 5 x 135 (+35lbs on the work sets)
Deadlifts: 5 x 135, 5 x 155, 5 x 205 (+50lbs on the work sets)
Dips: 2 x 2 – Still tough for me right now with the extra weight I’m carrying – going to keep at it and focus on negatives
Supermans: 3 x 8
I really like this routine – it feels much more natural to do big compound movements and mentally it feels like I am accomplishing more. It sure beats messing around with a million machines too. Getting 205 on the deadlift was a good feeling. I’ve really never tried to lift weights this high because I’d use a lot of machines and dumbbells in my past efforts. It’ll be interesting to see where I stand at the end of the challenge.
Here’s what I did:
Squats: 5 x 45, 5 x 95, 5 x 135, 5 x 135, 5x 135
Dumbbell Bench Presses: 5 x 20, 5 x 40, 5 x 50, 5 x 50, 5 x 50
Deadlifts: 5 x 135, 5 x 155, 5 x 155
Dips: 2 x 2 – This is tough for me right now with the extra weight I’m carrying – going to keep at it and focus on negatives
Supermans: 3 x 8
