Last week was interesting for several reasons. In the course of several days, I had three people off the street come blazing into the open front door of the gym, begging for a public toilet so they could take care of business. The last one was a senior citizen with coke-bottle think sunglasses and a Doberman Pinscher. She tied the dog to the outside of the door while she went into the can. That was in the midst of Shawn's deadlifting session. I walked out and left him and 4Board in charge. They had some fun with that one when I returned ten minutes later and told me that the old woman was "still in the can and had requested more paper." Shawn said, 'dude, I think you should call 9-1-1. She's been in there a long time and we thought we heard her crying for help.' Finally, I went back there to see for myself and she was gone. The laugh was on me. Oh, and Shawn finally pulled 700, a PR. And there are "No Public Restrooms" at The House.
Wednesday Sept. 8 was a two parter.
Part I
Sleddin 6x w/ 100# 3 each way
Bench 190x5, 220x5, 250x5
Suspended pushups 2x25 w/ feet up
Tates 5x13/ 40-60
Part II
DB rows 5x10/ 75, 85, 95, 105 (2) w/ wall slides
Seated DB cleans 5x13/ 25-35 w/ scap pushups
Pushdowns w/ light band 100 reps as many sets as possible to get done (4)
September 10 Friday
Sled upper 90# 8x various movements
Squat 295x5, 340x5, 385x2 felt very freakin' heavy (or I am very freakin' weak). I explain it as a textbook example of how stress, lack of sleep and a crappy diet can really screw up one's training. So it is with a heavy heart that I will once again; reset my squat max. And get my s^%t together in the diet and sleep departments.
September 11 Saturday
A1 GHR 3x15
A2 Back raises 2x20
A3 Chin-ups various grips in between 1 and 2: 5 reps a crack for a total of 40
Farmer's walk 8x 40 yds.
The highlight was a visit by "The Angry Coach II" aka Big Auto. I got to listen to him vent about barfights with the parents of the little kids on the middle school football team that he coaches, among other things. A visit with the Large Automobile is always welcome.
This week I noticed that everyone, without fail, who comes in to train, eventually barricades themselves in the can to "do work". I am not quite sure what that means other than I will have to stock lots of toilet paper. I, myself, prefer to "work" at home. Unless its an emergency.
