Training Log 8/1/13


8/1/13; 1030-1300hrs; Bishan Gym
Mood
Before: Feeling good. Looking forward to hitting the upper body.

During: Feeling better.

After: Feeling great. Looking forward to smolov tomorrow.

Training
Warm up: Did the shoulder savers warm up. Pull ups felt sluggish initially but that went away after a few sets.

Work sets: Missed on both 67.5kg and 75kg sets initially. Got the required reps the second time around so no biggy there. Felt a little weak when pressing though. Could it be lack of foam rolling or diet?

Assistance: Clean 60kg off the floor and OHP for 5 reps. Superset with wide overhand chin ups for 15 reps. Did 5 sets total. This felt good. Probably gonna keep it for the next few months in place of 5x10.

Accessory: This is where things got fun as usual. Kicked it off with bodyweight dips taken just before failure superset with D handle rows on the lat pulldown machine, did this for 4 sets. Managed around 12 reps on the dips and 9 reps on the rows. Followed by front lateral raise to overhead extension superset with straight arm lat pulldowns for 4 sets. Reps were around 10 for both. And lastly, L-lateral dumbbell raises superset with face pulls for 4 sets. 10 reps for the raises and 20 reps for the face pulls. Brisk walk wasn’t done today because my lower body didn’t feel sore and I was lazy.

Miscellaneous
I need to be diligent about foam rolling. Just take a little bit of time each day to roll. Don’t become lazy and neglect this.

Preworkout/breakfast: 2 scoops protein, creatine, 4 eggs and 2 slices of white bread. 1 cup kopi o kosong ti loh before hitting the gym.

Teabreak: 4 eggs with 1 slice of cheese omelette.

Dinner: Swenson’s mega burger or whatever it’s called.
