Tuesday 0821 1320 hours, Elite Athletic Club. West Chester, PA.
Long Joint mobility opener after that ride. I was tight but not crippled after figuring out the internal draw. JM included Windmill 24kg 2 LR, and then 3:00 rest.
Press 24kg x 10 LR rest 2.5, 32kg x 8 LR rest2.5, 32 x 10 LR rest 3:00
C&P 150 lbs. x 4 + 4 military presses rest 3:30.
Long Cycle C&P 24kg x 12 LR rest 2:00
EZ Bar Bent Arm Pullover (full range) 75lbs. x 2 sets of 10 rest 1:30 between, 24kg x 10 close grip rest 1:30.
Double standing dumbbell curl 35 x 8 30 x 8 35 x 10 rest 1:15 between.
This was an interesting lift. Playing around with size after focusing strictly on strength and mobility for 3 years is quite a trip. Now that I know how to lift in the 8-12 rep range and act as Lord and fucking Chancellor over every single repetition is quite lovely. I'm looking to balance out my shoulders and traps with the lower half of my frame. I have to purchase 40 or 42 inch waist shorts and jeans (forget about khakis and slacks, on principle and logistically) to move around comfortably. The time is upon me to make a cosmetic adjustment to my weightlifting adventures. And I like it. Shoulders grow now better than ever after 3 years of hardCORE kettlebelling. Dead lifts and presses have previously failed but NOW. . .with both drills wielded as Ax and Shield I'm set to be 275 LEAN, and capped out.
Sunday 070819 rode my mountain bike 35 + miles from Art Museum to my front door. Schuylkill River trail to Valley Forge National Park, up Bear Hill Rd. to King St. Then I passed out for 6 hours.
