Was on the ice for 1.5 hours. The net was out there too. Me and a friend practiced going 1-on-1 against each other. I felt pretty good. My stopping was great today for some reason. My skating was pretty good as well. I was turning, stopping, skating backwards, etc. very easily. I took slap shots, wrist shots, passed the puck, and did some other stuff. Great time.

10 minutes of stretching
Today was supposed to be an off day from the weights, but I took my iPod Touch up there and had my friend take a video of me doing some compound lifts. (Back Squat, Front Squat, Barbell Row, Sumo Deadlift, Chin Up, Bench Press, Overhead Press) so I could upload them at home and watch to see if my form is off on any lifts. Just used a really light weight for all the lifts.
Tonight I have hockey tickets to an AHL game. About the 10th time going this year. Can't wait. Tomorrow will be weightlifting. Hopefully I can get a good night of sleep tonight as last night I was tossing and turning the whole night.
how was the form???
It was good. I just noticed I need to adjust a little more on the sumo deadlifts. I wasn't using my hammies enough. Looked more like a SLDL with my legs split lol

Such a fun workout. I dropped the 205 on the front squats when racking it at the end of my set. It landed on my right forearm and I'm lucky no damage was done. Just a little soreness. I'm surprised it didn't break my arm. I picked the bar up and continued my workout though haha. Tomorrow will be ice skating plus some cardio. Lifting again Saturday.[/QUOTE]
rough. i hate front squats, im not a fan of either of the grips, the only time i really do them is when i do hang clean to front squat to push jerk with light weight

I really love front squats. I was just greatful that the one time the bar did slip that it didn't destroy my arm haha.
I hate the cross arm grip. The clean grip felt weird when I first started doing them, but they have come to feel normal now.

All in all it was a great workout. I really focused on my form on the squat. I wanted to get as low as I could and break past parallel so I lowered the weight to 225 for my working sets. I tried the new technique for benching as well and it made a heck of a difference. I feel a lot less strain on my shoulders when doing it and that is a plus!
Gonna feast today on chicken and maybe even some pizza! I'm gonna try and watch some hockey then of course the Super Bowl. I took yesterday off completely to do homework for my classes. Took a long time. Also, I have hired the help of 3DMuscleJourney which will be handling my workouts for the next 12 weeks. They have been very nice and very helpful thus far.

Wow. My legs were killing during the first period of the workout. I should've stretched them more. They felt good towards the end of the first period though and were good the rest of the way out. Tomorrow will be a weightlifting day. Can't wait! Hate days off lifting. Hate them. Hate them. Hate them.

I remember at the gym a couple months ago some guy had on a red striped shirt and a winter hat with the ball at the top and I said to my buddy as soon as we got in the gym "where's waldo?" both of us started cracking up.

I'm just mad that I'm going to miss hockey because I'm waiting for the dryer repair man to get here and even though I picked the 8-11 AM maintenance time, they called and said they are coming anytime from 12-3 PM. Makes no sense.

Brutal, but great workout. I really worked on my form on all the lifts especially the sumo deadlift because I am relatively new to the sumo lift as I normally do conventional ones. Fun workout though. Tomorrow will be skating and that's it. Lifting resumes Thursday with a hockey session of pick up sticks, too!
looking nice and strong there with the FS...
thanks
my right hand is still dead from dropping the bar on it last week lol.
I got a game tonight and it reminded me of your log. Keep up the good work and progress will naturally follow. You're trying to master on of the toughest sports known to man so gjdm.

nice to see you like my bike exercise. today i did dead lift to hang clean to front squat to push jerk (light weight obviously) and then the bike cycle and i am feeling it now haha

Lol your lower body must be fried! You were right about the first period being the worst on the bike and also about the butt getting sore. I find myself squirming in the seat at about the 35 or so minute mark on haha.

It would be cool to see you do a log too, we could learn so much. I'm trying to get a bike in my garage so I can do it while I watch hockey games. I get bored doing cardio at the gym.
