DE LOAD DAY 2

WED. FEB. 24TH

Grippers 5 x 5 each hand.

Front Squats in the power rack: (Done with the olympic Press Grip and not the cross arms bodybuilding way.)
2 x 10 210 lbs.
2 x 8 225 lbs.
2 x 6 235 lbs.

Dumbbell Floor Press: (I used a couple wood blocks here so I could get the weights to the chest to press easier without a spotter. This lifted them a few inches already.)
2 x 10 90's
2 x 8 100's.
2 x 6 110's


1 Arm Kettlebell Clean & Press:
30, 55, 80 lbs. x 5 each
(These are 5 lbs. plate loadable handles so I can use as much or as little weight as I want. Built by Andy Burwell. The Floor Pressing definately affected these in the Press. Should've reversed the order of the 2.)

1 Arm Dumbbell Rows: (No wrist straps which is pretty good considering the weight in the end and reps. Haven't done these in a long time this heavy and they felt good.)
2 x 10 100 lbs.
2 x 8 150 lbs.
2 x 6 170 lbs

Lying Knee Raises 1 x 40
DONE!

(The 2 sets at each weight instead of 1 x 10, 8, 6 was different and not sure how much more effective it was or if it would be more efficient to just do the 10, 8, 6 and move more weight with more energy and in a more efficient use of time??)

(Off til Monday, then "off season" is officially over!)
