02 April 2015 - Hulkbuster Squats

02 April 
0700 hrs

So I have started carrying a scribbler around with me. Writing down random thoughts i need to get out of my head and also quotes or other things i have a thought or opinion on. Some of it may get transferred into the training log if i think it is worthwhile to share.

"Outworked is a Fucking Choice" -Matt Vincent

Banded Side Step 2 x 20+ x Lite EFS Band
Banded Front Step 2 x 15+ x Lite EFS Band

"Hulkbuster" 
SSB Box Squats
1 x 10 x Bar (Monster Mini around Knees)
2 x 5 x 135 (Monster Mini around Knees)
1 x 5 x 225 (Monster Mini around Knees)
1 x 3 x 275 (Belt On)
31 x 1 x 315 (Belt On)
So I decided today i would test my hip and my mind. I guess my body to a lesser extent as well. 31 min. 1 rep at the top of every minute. I got the idea from Harry Selkow awhile back. I believe he did this for an hour. I tried to use some reasoning and common sense the first time out. Turns out this was extremely good for my hip. The 315 was a solid weight for this as it was not insanely challenging but gave me a little room for error. Using the SSB with beat padding left my clavicle a little sore, have to remember to flex my traps harder next time.
 I will probably give this another run in 3-4 weeks for a full hour.

Head Harness 3 x 15 x 50
TKE's 2 x 21 x Lite EFS Band
Felt like doing some TKE's today. Have to throw my Average band in my Gym bag specifically for these. Also decided I will make a run at the 70 lbs KB with the Head Harness. Not for regular lifting but for a session to prove to myself I can do it and because the KB is there. I actually mentioned this to a buddy of mine, I joked if the gym had a 90lbs KB i would make a run at it too. KB are just convenient Head Harness weights.

1917 hrs

Prowler (1 min Rest)
16 x 20 m x 90 lbs
GHR 2 x 17 x Bodyweight
Sauna 25 min
So a very simple day in regards to movement. Also a high energy expenditure day. Prowler my legs felt like lead but my avg 20 m time was only 1-2 sec slower than normal.

I get to sleep in tomorrow, the gym does not open till 9 am

Keep Moving Forward, Keep Getting Strong(er)
