I took a lifting break on 4/19 because my rotator cuffs felt extremely tight. I did HIIT workouts on 4/18 and 4/20.
4/22/17
Game against NYPD
First half we ran all over them. It was rolling subs so me and some other forwards got subbed out. NYPD started getting on the scoreboard in the second half but we still won soundly.

Yeah the nj select side practice was fun, but i tweaked my groin muscle which has put me off this week.
At least the blacks have a chance to make playoffs haha. We had a miserable season, only 3 wins and 5 close losses.

Safety bar squat is just easier on your shoulders, if you have limited shoulder mobility. Easier to maintain torso rigidity with the handles in front of you. (Laziness really)
Yeah the pulls are good, need to work on jerks more.
Jamiaca was amazing! the ocean felt like bath water. It was for a destination wedding, which was beautiful and a lot of fun. Managed to not put on holiday weight by limiting myself to "liquid carbs."MISC STRENGTH CREW

Yeah. It's probably a little of both.
So had a busy week. Played rugby on 6/10 and 6/11. 6/10 was the NJ Select Side team. We played against NY Upstate and NY Downstate. Lost both. NY Downstate we won the first half and then they dropped the hammer in the 2nd half. NY Upstate we went try for try the whole game.
6/11 was the Shillelagh Cup we play every year. We finally won it back after 3 years, beating the other team 77-0.

Haha that is kind of odd. I lack overall shoulder strength, but I probably just have the PP and Jerk form down better.
6/20/17
It's my easy week, so I signed up for a trial boxing class at the boxing gym around the block from my job. It was about an hour and it was brutal. Started off with running stairs, running around the block, burpies, jumping jacks, etc to warmup. Then did shuffling and duck, slip, and weave drills. then worked combos. worked in a group rotating around the coach hitting pads, shadowing boxing when we weren't hitting the pads, then did heavy bag work. My arms and abs feel shot.MISC STRENGTH CREW

Did the aussie rules running program again. walk/jog for 5 minutes, run for 5, walk/jog for 3, run for 5, walk/jog for 3, run for 5, walk/jog for 4.
Walk/jog had to stay between 3.4mph and 6.4mph. The run had to be between 6.5mph and 8mph. Kept the walk/jog to around 5mph, kept the running to about 7mph. Considering I walked half the time, i managed to do 3 miles in 30 minutes which isn't too bad.MISC STRENGTH CREW

Running workout
In total I ran about 6 miles. I jogged to a track and did the aussie rules running program which was a 5 minute slow jog, then alternating fast runs and jogs every minute, then a 5 minute cooldown. then i just jogged around the track until my fiancee' finished her workout.

Yeah these complexes feel awesome. I'd rather do these than run tbh. Build strength while jacking my heart rate up.

Aussie rules running workout
5 minutes fast walk/slow jog
Alternating 1 minute fast run 1 minute run x 7
5 minutes slow jog
This was pretty rough, but managed 2 miles at this pace through the fast run/run portion so hopefully means getting my mile time down, as it was about 2 miles in 14 minutes.
Fast run was running at a speed over 8.5mph, run was between 6.5 - 8.4 mph. Fast walk slow jog was 3.4mph - 6.4mph.Last edited by BobisMighty; 06-30-2017 at 07:33 AM.

Adidas has an app called Adidas Train and Run and you can select cardio and strength routines for different sports. I picked AFL for running i figured it would be better than american football. They used to have a whole rugby program but they took it off. They're scrapping their whole micoach line so i'm hoping that doesn't mean they pull the app.
