Cycle 1 Deload Week 4

Deload Week 4 (40% 50% 60%) 5/5/5


Deadlift (90, 112.5, 135) 5, 5, 5
Bench Press (80, 100, 120) 5, 5, 5
Squats (90, 112.5, 135) 5, 5, 5
DB Overhead Press (24, 30, 36)

Variety week. 20 minutes steady heavy bag work jab/move/teep when tired. Test 1 mile run number. Try some running this week too.

Update 1:  Tried some running.  It went well I think.  My low level cardio output has increased significantly.  My 1 mile run time leaves much to be desired, but I think it was was good enough for a few excuses.  


1.)  The fear of tripping on a tread mill
2.)  The inability to control my own pace on a tread mill
3.)  Being mindful of noise and grunting sounds at a commercial gym


Will correct all of that by going to the track and field at the local high school.  Perhaps will include some sprinting drills on a weekly basis.  Finished with a few rounds of Bas Rutten's Thai boxing.  My movement is much better and was actually waiting for Bas' next command instead of the other way around.




Mental Note:  By organizing my workouts on an entry for a week vs. daily it allows me to look at the bigger picture.  I no longer am upset missing a single workout that can be made up on another day or doubled in a session.
