Combat Training, Week 8, Session 2, Saturday 1:30PM (Volvo/cables/stretching)

Today I am going to begin a targeted stretching routine for my right shoulder. I am days away from getting some medical work done on it, but in the meantime I am going to stretch my shoulders out with bands. I will train lower body and chins early in the day and then do some stretching tonight.

For more on bands, check out:

or

Fabled Cables?-Ironmind Enterprises

I will be offering a review on these products soon.

  • GoodMorning/Hyper Ext w/HipBelt and Vulcan Rack: 5cd x 15, 20, 20 15 (the Holy Grail of Low Back/Glute/Ham Isolation - damn! Need one or two more cables next session) Spinal Erectus pump from middle of the back down to sacroiliac joint is amazing!
  • Calf Raise Cable: 17cd x 20, 15, 13 (damn brutal. I have GOT to get some pics of this.); pump is amazing again.
  • Parallel Chins: 25lbs x 7, 3 1/2 10shsec fail
  • Pushups: 10, 20, 25, 10, 10, 10, 10, 5

Awesome session. I had a protein drink just before training! I also had good sleep. Imagine me, training in the morning. I have not done that for…well, a long time. This was just incredible. I may consider this part A). I might want to do another session tonight. We will see.
