Shane's Over 35 Shenanigans

Thanks Trent. I know I have mentioned it before but yeah, one type of cardio all the time isn’t a good idea for me. I think your metcons have you covered. :flexed_biceps::+1:

Good looking session Shane! Those DB lat raise numbers are straight up manly. :man: I doubt I could get 10 reps with 30’s… Also finished up with some damn respectable weight for a 20 rep set on HS OHP. Sorry the DB bench wasn’t happening. :frowning: Great job man!

Thanks Trent. Idk what I am going to do about the shoulder. It doesn’t bother me if I am not doing any pressing. :man_shrugging:

Had every intention of going to the gym this afternoon at lunch and doing some sled drags, but something came up at work. Which is exactly why I quit going at lunch.

Lesson learned. Back to regular scheduled programming tomorrow.

Man that thing just kept going like the energizer bunny. LOL Heck of a workout Shane. Lots of KB work will get you. Some rowing, deads and pull-ups in there for good measure too. I hear you on the mid day workouts. Morning is non-negotiable for me right now. One of my Murph buddies works from home (and works out midday) and he hasn’t trained in weeks. I try to preach to him to get TF out there in the morning. Maybe one day he will listen. LOL

Thanks Trent. Yeah I agree on morning workouts. Every time I try to vary timing and do afternoon I regret it.

Wanted to sauna but it was out of service. Boo. Worse time of the year for the sauna to be broke.

I am going to be doing more minimalist type workouts for a while.

Goal by doing this. Drop overall body mass from mid 250s to mid 230s.

Hope to feel less beat up and more recovered.

Bring some new variety to my workouts that honestly have begun to feel stale.

Nice job on the Peloton ride and that was a good looking squat/pull-up session. Those were some solid sets. I like the idea of a minimalist session. Throwing in more conditioning and less lifting should help drop the pounds. Hope they get your sauna fixed. Ours was working a little too well today… :hot_face:

Nice job on that conditioning Shane! Hope the red light does some good for you. I tried it in the spring and didn’t notice a whole lot but it felt like I was doing something cool. LOL

Yeah, that is about all I feel. Haha. The sauna is still broken so I decided to try the red light. Honestly, I probably should have just stretched.

No idea what this is, but I am sure it is not what I think it is. LOL

You’re intuition is correct. :joy:

It’s a red light you sit in front of. It’s supposed to have benefit. Probably a bunch of snake oil. :joy:
