god bless the snooze button. started off a little later than i meant to this morning but it worked out just fine. it wasn't a very intense workout but i expect this evenings run to give me more than enough intensity for the day. the game was fun, even though it was a little disappointing. however i was please with my own performance in the front row and i'm feeling a lot more confident now about making the switch.
gym arrival: 6:40am
warm up: bm bar x5 (always tough on a monday morning)
liftylift: I tried to focus on being as explosive as possible with these two moves, once again not so easy on a monday morning. I chose jerks and back squats to use the muscles and forms that you use for lineout lifts and scrumming. i might not be the biggest front row but i'll sure try to become the strongest. I by no means maxed out on either of these this morning but like i said, i tried to explode into position as best as i could.
back squats: 95lbs x5, 115lbs x5, 135lbs x5, 145lbs x8 x5, 165lbs x5, 175lbs x5 x5 x5
jerks: 95lbs x5x5x5x5x5
dumbbell raises for mah shouldahs: 12.5lbs x8ES side, diagonal, front
tunes: the wizard turns on-the flaming lips, ellen and ben-dismemberment plan, autumn almanac-the kinks, right kind of wrong-leanne rhymes, all my friends-lcd soundsystem
gym departure: 7:25am
EXPLOSIVE!
