I would like to call this a rest day but really the whole day was sort of wasted. Other than my Neural reactivation first thing in the AM not much else was accomplished. Did my body need rest? Yes. But not a total day off. The day sort of just got away on me. Days like this eat at me. Time is not finite. Wasting a day bothers me. But i did watch this:
If this does nothing else it should at least make you think for 5 minutes about what you put in your gob. I am not a healthy nut, i like drinking alcohol. I eat cake and chips and pop. But my parents always taught me moderation. Pop for me as a kid was a special treat on Fridays, not the daily drink with supper.
Understand i will be the last person to agree that Obesity is a disease. But it is good to see that the medical community is at least thinking about changing their approach and may come to the conclusion that Sugar consumption and massive intake of Carbohydrates is a big part of the Obesity problem. But i have no schooling, i just read a lot of books and experiment on myself with various nutrition protocols.
29 June 2013
1810hrs
Ok so i had to make up for yesterday's lost day a little. I did so in spades. I got all the groceries and even went and got ammo for the pistol. I hit the gym tonight with the Girl. She had to make up for yesterday also. She had an extremely long week and yesterday was the longest day of the week so i did not harp on her when she wanted out last night. Anyhow what was i to do? A proper Silver Back Saturday was out of the question with my should /Upper back still in recovery mode. So i came up with some work arounds. Which as i sit here now i can say worked out ok. i am a little sore and fatigued on my left side but i don't think i caused any undue stress /damage.

Close Grip (Black)Banded Incline Push Up
5 x 20
1 x 15
Bosu Sit Up 6 x 20
Blast Strap Rows (Pronated to neutral Grip) 10 x 15 reps
We both did these in a circuit pattern. not rushing from exercise but simply getting the work completed in a timely fashion. The banded push ups did not stress my shoulder blade or rotator but gave my triceps a decent amount of work. The blast strap rows allowed me to train my back and work through the weakened range of motion but using the reverse motion.
Head Harness (Done through out)
10 x 30 x 20 lbs
Prowler (All weights pushed for 20 m)
1 x 25 lbs
1 x 25 lbs + 20 kgs
1 x 50lbs + 20 kgs
1 x 25 lbs + 20 kgs
1 x 75 lbs + 20 kgs
2 x 50 lbs + 20 kgs
2 x 75 lbs + 20 kgs
2 x 50 lbs + 20 kgs
That was 220 m of Prowler work so that you don't have to do math. Why Kgs and Lbs? I used metric and Imperial bumper plates. Initially for the singles i was finishing up the neck work. The girl was pushing in between.Timing rest was not the worry again it was about just doing the work in a timely fashion. But if you are really interested this whole session was just under an hr and a half. Sweating, breathing hard and trying to keep most of my body primed for when I get back to doing pull ups.
In the mean time i will enjoy some mashed sweet potatoes and stuffed chicken breast.
