First of all, I'd like to wish a Happy Friday to all two people reading this bit of tripe that is my blog. This should be brief as I have little of substance to write about. I suppose a little is better than none at this point. On Sunday, I got in a two-fer before hitting the road again Monday morning.
Squats: 370 x 5, 390 x 5, 420 x 5
Bench: 275 x 5, 295 x 5, 315 x 5
I was sure I'd forgotten how to bench press. Surprisingly, the strength was still mostly there, but form was absolute tosh. But I didn't hurt myself. So that's good.
Drug out of bed this morning determined to do something healthy. I decided on the fresh air route.
Farmer walks: I don't know what the handles weigh, so I'll only mention the plate load. The weigh represents the ammount per hand. I did 50' fast walks, dropped the weight, rested probly 30 seconds and carried it back.
50lbs
90lbs
110lbs
130lbs
150lbs Did this for two sets of 50' and then one 100' walk with one turn. I haven't done these in ages and I love'em. Reminds me how much I need to work on my grip and hip strength. Followed this up with 4 40yrd sled sprints with 90lbs on the sled. Unfortunately, I was out of time after this. Next week should be the last spot of traveling I'll have to do for a while. Maybe I can start getting my tubby butt back into some kind of shape.

Yessiree Bob: Doesn't sound like you're circling the drain just yet. sounds like you hain't lost much strength either. Might just come back into it with some steely, perfectly-healed tendons. i think i could use a month or so off, m'self. i feel a li'l bit arthritic.
good on ya brother.. sounds a wee bit on the difficult side. Im ready to do the 30 day thing again you mentioned... :)
