Nathan : 9/22 & 9/23

1. 9/23/09 - Wed - BENCH

Weight: 222 (after gym). Time: 1:30.

  Received word today about Holter monitor results. They were pretty much as expected (normal/benign), but my cardiologist is concerned that one benign condition might suggest that their original diagnosis was incorrect. I have yet another consultation with another specialist, but I'm not supposed to change anything about what I'm doing.

2-sec pause bench warm-up, 205x2x8 @ 7, 245x1 @ 8, 275x1x2 @ 9

Speed work.

Incline bench warm-up, 225x5x5 @ 8

This was fairly easy. I wanted to keep it light because this the exercise that I believe originally pulled my lower back/side and caused all the problems.

Dumbell press 50x7x4 @ 9-10

Chest-supported row 80x8x4 @ 8-9

Wanted a movement that wouldn't stress my lower back at all.

2. 9/22/09 - Tue - CARDIO

Weight: 220 (after gym). Time: 1:15.

  Right side/lower back still killing me.

Cardio - bike ~35 mins

I do a little warmup and cooldown so this was really 40 mins or so...

Stretching - gastroc, adductors on leg press, soleus, hamstrings, seated groin, lying glute, 

hip flexors

Should do the lying glute more regularly.
