Season 2 - Day 8
Today's Notes:
It's so strange - I used to LOVE days off from the gym. But over time, your mind and your body grow to love the exertion. Even when it's painful and it sucks, when you go an entire day without doing anything, your body almost demands to go outside and run and collide into things. I can't explain it, except to say yesterday was a very "fidgety" day for me.
Today, I'm driving to Kentucky for work, so my workout is a bit abbreviated... Mostly cardio / conditioning work.
Today's workout was about 2 hours.
The Workouts:
(You can read descriptions for all of these exercises here)
Morning Session (weights + drills + cardio)
Dumbbell Dead Lift - 20 x 3 @ 130 lbs each hand (260lbs)
Dumbbell Snatch (yes, haha, i said snatch) - 20 (first set), 15 (second set), 10 (third set) @ 50lbs, 55 lbs, 60 lbs (respectively)
Leg Press - 20 (first set), 15 (second set), 10 (third set) @ 870lbs, 1050lbs, 1230lbs (respectively)
Seated Squat - 15 x 3 @ 405lbs
Ladder Drill - studder-step x 10
Ladder Drill - sidestep x 10
Hurdles - High Step x 10
Hurdles - shuffle step hop x 10
Stair run - 30 (15 x 2 stairs at a time, 15 x 1 stair at a time)
30 mins on Elliptical (interval hill program, level 15)

HOW I FEEL:
The 7 hour drive ahead of me suddenly looks even less attractive now that my legs are all tight and mealy.
