Update Time!
February 20, 2008: Wednesday
I went to the gym around 7PM. Here's what I did there:
30 minutes elliptical, Mt. Kilimijaro settting, level 15
20 minutes step machine, worked in several intense intervals
-3 sets, 10 reps: roman chair leg lifts
-3 sets, 10 reps: roman chair hyperextensions
-3 sets, 10 reps: crunches on swiss ball
-20 minutes walking on track, cool-down
When I got home, I was bouncing off of the walls. This tends to happen after 2 iced coffees.
11PM:
jumprope, about 20 minutes total
Deadlift, 10r x 135 lbs.
Deadlift, 5r x 180 lbs.
Deadlift, 4r x 200 lbs.
Deadlift, 1r x 265 lbs.
*PR*
Deadlift, 10r x 135 lbs.
There was a minute to a few minute's rest in between each set.
My all-time record for the deadlift was 270, but at that time I think I was about 220 lbs.
My weight now is in the mid to high 180s (thanks carbs!). In my last attempts I've only been able to do 250. So that's a nice increase.
I feel like I've fallen down a flight of steps. Maybe several flights. I have not done heavy lifting for a while now. AC focuses more on speed, balance, coordination... things I definitely need. However, it feels great to be back into the heavier stuff.
