• Sumo Deadlifts

Been forever since I’ve posted an update!   Need to get back on track though.  Especially now since I’m training for a guest appearance at the Association of Oldetime Barbell and Strongmen Reunion Dinner on October 23rd!  Check out http://www.weightlifting.org/aobs.htm for more info about the AOBS.  I’m really excited to be a part of this event. This year will will be honoring former Mr. Universe, Chet Yorton, World Renowned Strongman, Dennis Rogers and Three-Time Weightlifting Olympian, Fred Lowe.

I’m all over my new ultra efficiency garage workout – cooking – cleaning thing I have going on lol. I feel so productive.

• Power Clean & Overhead Press – 1 Power Clean then strict OHP to failure, followed by push press to failure.
• Barbell Bicep curls

Doesn’t sound like a lot…but I did tons of sets and reps and expect to be nice and sore tomorrow.

In between sets I cooked Craig’s dinner for tonight and lunch for tomorrow, unloaded the diswasher and did the laundry.

Was going to go to Eaton tonight but trained in the garage instead. Worked out well. I super setted squats with cooking dinner, deadlifts with laundry, and overhear squats with cleaning the oven lol. I may have to make this a standard plan when I do my morning garage sessions looool.

• Clean & Front Sqaut – 1 clean & then front squat reps
• Sumo Deadlifts*
• Overhead Squats

*Something feels really off with my sumo deadlift form and I can’t put my finger on it. I have a feeling it may be related to weighing ~40lbs less than I used to lol. I tried some various foot stances and angles but that didn’t fix it. I just feel like I can’t get in a position where my butt is down so that I can pull nice and upright using my quads and hamstrings like I normally do sumo. I’m leaning over the bar all funny. I’ll have to take a video or something.

• Clean & Strict press ’till failure then a few push presses (just one clean then the presses, not clean each rep then press…although I do like to do that sometimes too!)
• Barbell Bicep curls w/drop sets – got my arms so pumped I could barely move
• Bent over rows

Garage

• Clean & Strict press ’till failure then a few push presses

Oh did I feel this for a few days after lol! Definitely going to make this a standard workout.
