so i had plans to go to halifax nova scotia saturday, with some buddies for the night for a friends birthday. and my 2nd squat session got pushed to saturday, and obviously i cant skip it. so 9am saturday i was in the gym hittin 5x5
saturday- lower-
squatz- 5x5 310
deadz- 440x5, lower back rounded on 4 and 5 but the speed was veryy fast. just fatigued back from the squat volume i think
db shrugs- 110s 2x15, 120s 2x15
bulgarian split squats- 3x15 bw
curls- 40x8, 45x8, 30 2x15
farmers walk- 200m w 60’s. then 2x1min hold w 60s
curls- 30s x15/12/12
then i got talked into a 95lbs bench for reps. i got 62 which beat my training buddies record of 57 lol. sucker! he blames the fact that i have a crossfit background, where hes pure strength. whatever i won lol
hes a beast though- names darryl matton, also in recce platoon. 6’4 240ish. bench 290 3x5, squat 375 3x5, dead 550, power clean 255 easy triple, ohp 185 5x5 won the base strongman this year, and finished 3rd in the event i finished fourth in last week.
went to the field october 11th- october 21st. so no gym, minimal sleep, 70-90lbs rucks, and 2ish ratons a day
sometime i wish i was in a mounted rifle coy instead of dismounted recce lol. rucks w all your kit, stano, weapon, food and water sucks. but on the plus side. it does burn cals and its atleast some pt. although its not fun it is still a workout. especially bush bashing for 5hrs in the nerepis hills looking for a orv and OP position. good times though, uit was just a training ex but my det did amazing, gathered some sick intel and at 2 times was 20m from enemy patrols without gettin busted.
1st night home i unpacked and smashed a large pizza n a beer w the roommate. friday was post ex drills, cleaing weapons and turnin in kit. and a workout. swtiching back to a semi crossfit oriented workout, stil lstarting wih a heavy strength move though.
hit it pretty good today. hips r sore form football. hopefully ready for tomorrows squats, i think my cheese burger delicio pizza and football night will aid recovery :)
sunday- bench 2x5 230, not to bad. 250x1 easy, 255x1, still fairly easy
wod- tabata- pullup, pushup, wallball, burpee
pullup- 45 no kipping
pushup- 75
wall ball- 53 this suckedd
burpee- 32 these also sucked
total 205. its supposed to be pullup, pushup, situp, squat. but used exercises i use less often. mixing it up a bit
