Burnsie's Log - Part II

[Burnsie]

BB Rows
205 lbs x 5 x 10

Farmer's Walk
2 runs at ~ 113 lbs / hand x 60 ft. (warm up)
6 runs at ~ 164 lbs / hand x 60 ft. with limited rest

Strict Single Arm Cable Rows
70 x 5 x 10

Not much energy to do much else. Also I've been getting lightheaded quite often over the last couple of months, and was getting this after sets of the rows. Stress may just be killing me slowly.

Treadmill
10 min of incline walking, nothing too strenuous.

Hang in there dude...

Hopefully lifting is helping with your stress at least somewhat...

I'm doing my best. Lifting does always help me, although some days it's a struggle to get a good session in, but I'm sure that is common for many people.

My 7 month old phone just died yesterday afternoon and wouldn't turn back on (LG G4). Really good phone so far, but I had to go home and switch to my old phone and wait for it to charge up. It's gonna be a long 2-3 weeks while my LG is in for warranty repair as my old phone (Galaxy S3) has some issues as I depend on my phone as my primary communication tool for everything. First world problems, right? So this all took a little while and I ended up at the gym later than I had hoped. Was still able to get a good session done, with shorter rest periods.

165 lbs x 5 x 3

Bench Press

Felt ok, very controlled reps, with a few pauses in there. Gonna proceed slowly.

Left shoulder was pissed getting the bar into position.

Thu - Feb 4/16

My back/glute has been bothering me since my last regular deadlift session 2 weeks ago, so I was a bit worried about how tonight would go, but it wasn't too bad.

Front Squat
195 lbs x 5 x 8
Damn those 8 rep sets.

Deadlift
365 lbs x 5
Tough, but not too bad. Held the last rep for a 5 count + slow eccentric. I believe my 5RM was 370 so just about back to where I was like 3 years ago.... Sigh...

BB Curls & Reverse Curls

[Burnsie]

General anxiety was really high today, which sapped my energy a bit.

205 lbs x 5 x 10
I may increase to 210 soon. Looking forward rowing with 225!

Suitcase Carry
~113 lbs x 6 runs @ ~120 ft. (3 runs per side)
These left me pretty winded.

Chin ups x 4, 4, 4
