Well Todd, As I told you Sunday I felt like busting out a run so I decided I would run for 45 minutes. Well tonight I wanted to run again and I did, and let me tell you I am fast. I busted out a little over 2 miles in 13 and some change, and I am a fat boy too. I wanted to lift when I came back, but homework won the battle of importance so I may wake up to do so tomorrow or catch up this weekend, who knows?
So as we discussed I want some muscles. I googled Wendler and bodybuilding and found some stuff I like, so I busted out the old Wendler spread sheet and started again. I really backed off the starting weights this time because I feel I started to heavy last time I did this.
I warmed up on a jog with the girls, came back and did a few sets of press with the bar then went into it. I did 5x5 @ 95, 115, and 125. I then dropped the weight to 95 and tried for 4x12, well let me tell you that was a shock, I had to drop to 75 on the last set and I still hurt. I then did 4x12 lateral raises with 25 pound dumbells, then barbell curls and preacher curls for 4x12. I have to say starting with strength then finishing with bodybuilding stuff made me feel good. I will stick with this program on days I lift and keep running and sprinting. You told me and I read in strength villain to know your goal or training is useless. I want to be big and strong, why did I ever let Crossfit brainwash me into thinking achieving your goals is bad? The best part is I started having fun in the gym again.
thanks for the advice and understanding I dont want to be a crossfit whore anymore.
