Full Body


New day, mostly heavy today.

Romanian Deadlift/Bent Over Row - 3x6.......135

Box Front Squats - 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5..........135, 155, 175, 185, 195, 205

Thruster - 3, 3, 3, 3, 3.......95, 115, 135, 155, 165

Kettlebell Swings - 3xmax reps at 24 kg........25, 21, 18

Good workout, the first hybrid exercise I hadn't done in a while but it actually worked the hamstrings and back pretty well I didn't mind it.  The box front squats felt really good, I decided to do 6 sets to see if I could in fact do 205 for 5 reps, it was heavy but went well, going from a dead stop each time certainly makes it tough.  That's the first time I have ever gone for a heavy weight on the thrusters, also the first time my hip has allowed my to go that low with a weight over 45 pounds.  Each rep was below parallel, and 165 was certainly heavy for a triple but I was happy I was able to do that.  One thing I like about this style of training is I can do exercises like that for heavy weights, thrusters don't really fit in on any other day on my old training program.  The last part was more to get my heart rate up a bit, my grip was the limitting factor there.
