Jason: Bench PR/Sumo DL PR

Thursday 12/17:

Promised Nathan I would post this. Haven't been posting lately -- without a plan I tend to forget what I did before I manage to post it.

• Warm-up elliptical 10 min
• Bench press 135x5, 185x1, 205x1, 215x1 (PR +10)
• Bench press 185x5x5
• Dumbbell row 80x5, 85x5x3, 85x7
• Military press ?x?x?
• Elliptical 30 min

Friday 12/18:

Got a late start and Deirdre was waiting for us reading a book, so a short day.

• Sumo DL 135x5x2, 225x3, 315x1, 345x1, 385x1 (PR +20), 405x1 (PR +40)
• Sumo DL 315x3, 275x5x2

Jason: 10/2

• Warmup: Elliptical 8 min, Sumo DL: 115x5x2
• Sumo DL: 225x3, 315x1, 375x1 (PR +10) -- form sucked on PR, dropped down
• Sumo DL: 315x3x3
• Bench 115x5x3, 135x3x3, 135x5x4 -- Injured shoulder felt pretty good on most of these, only hurt on a few reps

Jason: 9/23 & 9/25

9/23 - Shoulder recovery

I injured my shoulder (AC join separation) a month or two ago, so this day was just light stuff in the hope to promote recovery.  The shoulder press was very painful, other stuff felt fine. 

• Bench 115x5x5, 115x10x3, 115x5x2
• Shoulder press 45x5x1, 45x10x5
• Bent over row 135x5x5
• Pull up w/ band (BW-band)x5x5 

9/25 - Deadlift chains

We got to the gym late today, so shorter than usual workout.

• Warmup: Bike 10 min; DL 135x5x2, 225x5x1
• Sumo DL+chains (225+120)x3x6 -- Working on my form mostly.
• Box squat 225x2  -- This felt way harder than it should have been... so I stopped early.
• Hyper extension/glute ham raise BWx6x5

Jason: 9/21

I should introduce myself since this is my first post.  Some of you may know me a little bit through Nathan.  I train with Nathan at TPS and am the camera man on most of his videos.  I'm a grad student in CSAIL and work in the office next to Nathan.  I started lifting a few months ago.

• warm up: squat 45x5, 135x5x3
• squat 225x3x2
• squat 245x2, 255x1(PR+10), 275x1(PR+30), 285x1(PR+40), 300x1(PR+55)
• more squat 225x3x7
• crunches, 25lb sandbag behind head

Today I basically did an hour and a half of squatting.  I felt like I had more in the tank after 300, but decided to take the new PR and not push it.
