Combat Training - Traditional Strength Prequel Week; Day 3; Friday 3:30PM-5:10PM
This is workout three of this week. I was plenty sore for the last 3 days, and as it turns out I needed them all to recover. The extra rest was good, but last night was rough and I did not get to sleep until 7:30AM! I had some severe breathing problems that were the result of some reaction to something I ate. The truth is I am exhausted, but I am pressing forward.
Today will be both cardio and combat training. I resume traditional strength in one week. Still waiting on my Quick-Lock Dumbbells.
The next few days will be cardio and cables and combat training style, just to get muscles and lungs increasingly use to stress again.
I have started using a line of supplements I will tell you more about in a separate post, but it will be interesting to see just how good they are.
- Heavy Rope Work 200r, 100rtx8 (wind was excellent. Last night I was sicker n’ hell, and I expected my lungs to give me trouble…and they did. Not in terms of endurance, but just congestion.) Oddly enough, my wind actually improved since 3 days ago. More rope work tomorrow.
- Parallel Chins BW 12, 8, 7
- Reverse Gravity Rows (off bench) BW 8, 8, 10
- Pushups 35, 20, 10, 10, 10 (stamina good, strength better)
- High Step-ups off bench (per leg) 20, 20
Less rest between sets, more reps. Good. Still had plenty left over, and all things considered I am pleased.
That is progress.
