No more snow!

Filed under: Training — fujiteampro @ 6:12 pm

I had a killer strength training session today (rescheduled because of the snow).

  • 12 reps 60lb leg extensions
  • 12 reps 60lb Smith machine squat
  • 12 reps 40lb leg curl
  • 12 reps 20lb hack squat
  • break

We repeated this over 5 circuits and switched the order each time.  Then we moved on to upper body.

  • 4 chin-ups (assisted)
  • 8 reps 75lb bench press
  • 12 reps 40lb tricep push downs
  • 2 minutes running on the box
  • 30 reps 80lb rope crunches
  • 25 reps decline twist crunches with 5lb weights

We repeated this over 5 circuits as well.  My arms and legs hate me!

After weight training, I spent 40 minutes in the pool.  It really helped loosen up a lot of muscles.  My swimming has really improved over the last two weeks because of a few simple pointers from the TNT coaches.  I’ve finally found a good breathing rhythm too.  Wahoo!
