R2D19 – Legs & Back + Ab Ripper X

Again I got home around noon, I was suppose to go get some blood test done, but I figured I would do it tomorrow because your not allowed to lift things for a while and I would be doing pull ups, the test is not necessary for another 3 weeks, therefore it’s ok, if your wondering it’s a test I get done every 6 months to check for cancer markers, to make sure no cancer has returned, so far so good in 4 years, and this visit to the oncologist will mark 4.5 years of cancer free.

OK so today there was someone sleeping and I was not able to workout till 6pm, around 4:30pm I was restless and I wanted to do something so I did crunches with 20lbs of weight LOL plus some other ab exercises, then I rested a bit and around 5:10pm I went for a 35min speed walk and then came home to workout at 5:50 because they finally got up LOL

Lets see how I did…

Reading this Chart:

  • Last column is the difference in reps since the last time I did this workout:
    • Green = More Reps than last time
    • Red = Less Reps than last time
  • R = Reps
  • S = Seconds
  • NC = No Chair Assist
  • C = Chair Assist
  • RL = Right Leg
  • LL = Left Leg
  • W = Weight

Well after a 35min speed walk doing legs makes a difference LOL, So I will say I brought it cause I felt it, now there are no extra reps, it is what was asked to do and it is what I did, now the pull ups are a different story.

I love doing pull ups now after I can do them LOL, so I started strong and did 15 right off the bat and then I hung there for the rest of the time, it felt so awesome! My mind set on pull ups now every time I do the same set is I have to do at least an extra 2 pull ups then the ones I did last time. Some times I have to take a small pause in order to complete this but as Tony says, that’s ok. The important part is the struggle with the last few, and I will tell you I felt it, so I know I brought it. The switch grip pull ups I always seem to do more because when you switch hands I find it’s like a mini break so it helps you do more.

Like I mentioned earlier I had done some crunches with 20lbs worth of weight around 4:30pm plus some other ab exercises LOL so I guess it was time to workout my abs yet again LOL and to top it off it is tough to do after doing Legs & Back, but it is getting easier for me to do after this routine, but thanx to the extra bit of workout, I felt the first 80 quite nicely, and by the time I was doing hip rock and raise, it was burning really good and it felt AWESOME!!

Once I was done I did elbow plank with a small crunch action as well, oh man I really finished up the burn. That was awesome.

Tomorrow I have Kenpo X.

Thank you for your time:

Mike

PS: Sorry I still have not worked on a calendar, I was thinking of just making a simple one considering I am already 3 weeks in to the workout LOL, We shall see.
