Inside
1 lateral-front-rear raise and db shld press giant set x 2 sets
2 bb rows 225x20,15,10
3 bowflex chest press 200x17,10.8

Maybe not so heavy for immortals.
Stone over bar will get your heart thumping…I did those once…once being the key word!
Mac, you’re to kind.
Paul, your workouts make lifting a stone over a bar look easy.

I didn’t feel like carrying weights out of the basement so I rounded up 2 cement blocks. I think they weigh around 40 lbs each.

We (Denver) got more spring snow overnight…made me think of back east.
Hope your not to buried where your at.
Good training too, I dig the variations, random-ish work ect.
Eric, it’s been very mild here. 99% of the snow is gone. I may even start some cold weather garden plants soon.

The first 2-3 rounds there wasn’t much rest between sets. But the forth and fifth had a lot more rest between sets. I haven’t worked up a sweat like this in a long time.

2a neutral grip chins BWx5,6,7,8,9,10
2b banded push-ups 5 sets
I planned on working up to 9 and 10 reps with the 170 lb stone but didn’t have it in me. I played around with the 230 lb stone but my back didn’t want to stand up with it.
Normal guys cringe with a 230 stone…
