Happy Friday.
Knocked out a good workout this morning. I think the left shoulder discomfort I've been having is coming from not enough rear delt work, going to look at putting more in my programming and maybe pick up a cable machine for stuff like face pulls. Would be good for other accessory work I usually don't bother doing currently.
Cardio: Battle ropes warm up. Was a hypertrophy day for most of my lifts so I kept rest short and crammed a bunch into 70 minutes so you could almost call it circuit training
Strength: Made up main lifts from yesterday and hit my Friday Upper Body Hypertrophy
Squats 3 x 5 @ 295
Deadlift 2 x 3 @ 315, heavy single at 385 as last set for fun
DB lateral Raises 4 x 12 @ 15-20s (upped weight after first set)
DB bent-over rear delt raises 4 x 12 @ 15-20s (superset with lateral raises so weight was same)
Flat Barbell Bench 4 x 8 @ 175
Barbell Row 4 x 8 @ 135
DB Overhead press 3 x 8 @ 40s
EZ bar curls 3 x 8 @65
Pull Ups 3 x 8 @ unweighted
Assessment: Ate too much yesterday, failed to resist cake and ice cream at in-laws. Eggs & Sausage for dinner tonight.

Hey soldiers,
Happy Monday!
So much for returning to normal programming, after my last post I injured my right knee and struggled to weight bear most of last week. Throw in a birthday, 1 too many cold beers, family gatherings and bad food, it's no surprise my weight is on the higher than life side this morning.
Thankfully, my knee is alot better and got in a light workout.
Cardio 30min walk post
strength BB bent over row, body squats, push ups, DB Romanian DL lunge, lat pull down, DB upright row, rope pressdown, ab roller. Hypertrophy session.
I'm ready to wrap this functional program up and return to a more traditional lifting program.
Assessment Boiled eggs and veg soup. After last week's write-off I'm happy to bring it back to basics.

Friday is always a good day!
Work is always a little less crazy on a Friday and I leave work early cause everyone including my boss is more chilled knowing the weekend is finally upon us.

I worked out the last 6 days, tried to today and tapped out because I just didn't have the energy. I'm going to listen to my body and give myself a rest day, and try again on Sunday. First time this has happened since I started in January.
Before I tapped out, I did
3 sets of planks, a minute each
3 sets of leg raises, about 14 per set or to exhaustion
4 kind of mediocre sets of barbell deadlifts
1 set of barbell bent over row
Yesterday I did 65 minutes of cardio on the AMT machine, with resistance of 17-max, burning (according to the machine) my personal best or 1203 calories. Was pretty proud of that.1 -

Yesterday was leg and shoulder day, followed by cardio day today to help with recovery.
Lots of personal bests, really been messing with my diet to get a ton more protein while I lose these next 30 pounds.
These were the best sets:
Squatted 175 to 7
Shrugged 175 to 10
Started military press and that's super hard, only did 55 well
Leg curled 130 to 8
Dumbbell lateral raises 40 to 7
Dumbbell shoulder pressed 60 to 10. I imagine I would have been able to go higher if I didn't start the military press.
Leg pressed 450 to 10
And then today it was a personal best on the AMT cardio machine. 1234 Calories in 65 minutes.
...there are too many daily protein shakes in my life right now.1
