What a mad crazy week. Ah well. Back to training.

As ever I am always willing to try new stuff when it comes to training. A well known internet personal trainer was advocating doing deadlifts last/in the middle of a training routine rather than first so that the other lifts could improve.

Sack that off for a game of cards. I tried it. It meant my deads were down compared to my training partner who just went for deads first.

PowerClean to Front Squat
(I'm sure Mr P will know the real name)
Warmup x Bar + 2x1.25kg (to keep the bar off the floor...)
Warmup x 22.5kg
5 x 42.5kg
5 x 62.5kg
0x82.5kg (4 failures in total)
3 x 5 @ 62.5kg

I love this exercise. I'm going to incorporate it into Tabatas I think.

Deadlifts
Warmup x 102.5kg
Warmup x 142.5kg
5 x 182.5kg

-- No wraps, no gloves, no belt, just chalk. I love chalk. Why didn't someone tell me about chalk sooner???

Bradford Press
3 x 5 @ 42.5kg

Gironda Drag Curls
3 x 5 @ 42.5kg

DB Side Laterals
3 x 8 @ 10kg DBs

+ Stretching. No tabatas.

I've added in ~5g of VitC per day. 3g in the AM, and 2g during/post training/before bed.

Lost some water/fat around the abs and the 2nd row of abs are peeking out. Still some fat to move yet.
