Today started the last week before switching programs. For some reason, everything seemed wrong. It's the same workout as last Monday, but with more weight and less time/reps. In the end, not only did I have to use the same amount of weight as last week, but I completed less reps, and was more tired... AND, my heart rate was higher than normal. I think during the weight workout it was 10 to 15 BPM higher than normal.
The upside is that because of the higher heart rate I burned more calories. I'm also enjoying being at the new place at lunch, hardly anyone's there. I think during my time there were 5 people in the whole place.
* Bench Press:
- Set 1: 6RM, 6 reps, sets to failure... 6 5
- Set 2: 6RM-15% of set 1, 6 reps, subsets of 3, sets until failure... 6 5 5, 6 2
- Set 3: 6RM-40% of set 1, reps to failure, subsets to failure, 10 10
* Static Curl, 1 rep per set, 30 second RM, 40lb dumbbell, 1 1 1
* Static Lying Triceps Extension, 1 rep per set, 30 second RM, 60lbs, 1 @ 22 secs, 55lbs, 2 @ 30 secs
* After weights, 25 min, 6mph run, 2.5 miles
Total 705 calories burned between weights & running! Woo!
