day 2 May 11
Today, I was able to do an upper body workout which took me a while to complete along with a 45-minute run and walk on the treadmill. I started off with bench press, I did pause the bench for 2 seconds every time I dropped the bar down to my chest. I did this for 5 sets and tried adding 10 pounds every time I did a new set. I started with 25s on each side and went for as many reps as I could, until failure. I tried this strategy because I want to get my bench weight max up, my max for one rep is 205. I then did dumbell incline press for 3 sets of 10 reps, while also doing curls with the bar along with 10 pounds and a 5 on each side, 3 sets of 15 reps. Also, I did a close grip dumbell bench, which I did 4 sets of 8 reps where I used 45-pound dumbells, along with reverse curls with the bar and 10 pounds on each side, and also shoulder shrugs with a shoulder fly along with that circuit. I did 3 sets of 10 reps for all of those, and I tried my best to do more reps because I feel I have better form and less resistance when I go for higher reps in which the weight is at a reasonable weight so I can complete my workout efficiently, instead of adding to much weight and having not as good technique with it which I tend to do sometimes. Along with that, I was able to do some agility ladders to get faster, these workouts were provided through a hockey program I saw on youtube. Started with one foot in the other out, went to two feet in, single-leg in and out, single-leg run movement, lateral high knees, lateral scissor hops, in order to get the movement techniques down. I did 4 sets of each movement. I also had a protein shake, whey protein and almond milk in a blender, a whey protein bar for recovery, and a cheeseburger with lettuce and ketchup, and curly fries, and 2 apples. Then for dinner, I had chicken, potstickers, and sausage at the dining hall. I as well had another protein bar.

ReplyDeleteDo the math. Add the weight so you know what you're doing. You'll need math to show progress and for building your plan.
