7/9/09 Workout 1

Completed the first workout of the 5x5 programme

Mon
A1 Double Military Press
A2 Kb Pullup ( I will be doing regular pull-ups as I’m strong enough….yet)

B1 Double Front squat
B2 Double swing
Double Windmill 2x5 l&r

(Do A-1 and A-2 back to back. In other words, do one set of A-1, wait a minute and then do a set of A-2, wait a minute and then do another set of A-1 and so forth. Keep going back and forth between A-1 and A-2 until you have completed all five sets)

The workout went really well, presses felt a bit off but i think that is due to the fact that i'm only used to single presses, managed 5x5 on palms facing chin ups which i'm chuffed with, didn't think i was strong enough for them, last set was hard, was using a little bit of rebound in the bottom posistion for them.

Was doing front squats to the back squat posistion but i think i should be lower, more ass to calves i think?

Double swings flew out.

Was doing the workout watching timmy time on cbeebies, hardly motivational but i got there!

Took my first batch of creatine but took it on a empty stomach, is that advisable??

I also bough some amino acids from Holland and Barrett yesterday to see if they would make a difference.

Been expermineting with contrast showers to aid recovery, so far so good.

Definatley going to tack on as a finsher the 200mtr farmers runs, was thinking of doing them then dumping the bells and sprinting that last 200mtr, should be....fun!

Thats it for now, looking forward to the next workout.
