This Past Week (2/13-2/19)

This past week was a tough one for me. I felt pretty fatigued all week, and it definitely showed in my lifts and my RHR. I am really looking forward to my deload week this upcoming week. So yeah, it was my heavy triples this past week, with squats on Monday, bench Tuesday, deadlifts Thursday, and circuits on Friday. I also had my plyos on Wednesday and Friday, as well as SMF on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. My SMF's for this week were the same as last week--plate pushes on Monday, ropes on Tuesday, and bike sprints on Thursday. Once again, no SMF on Friday. I am liking the way these are flowing with my lifting schedule, so I am planning on keeping these same ones for a little bit. I will resume the SMF work after my deload week.

Some good news regarding my training: I have gained seven pounds since the start of 2011, which I am really pumped about.

Outside of my training, I finished reading the CSCS book (again) and will be taking this exam in the upcoming weeks. I also had my second weekend of MAT Jumpstart courses. This time the courses focused on the upper body, i.e. the shoulder and elbow. I also received my first feedback from the Monster Pushups program. This person went from doing 70 consecutive pushups to 120 consecutive pushups in just the first six weeks of the program!

Hmmmm...that's all I can think of that happened this past week. My brain is kind of foggy, though, from sitting in class for eight hours each of the past two days. Well, if I think of something more I guess I will just have to tell you next week.

That's all for this past week. Now it's time to go live this one.

Get big or die tryin'.
