to post...or not to post...

I was told I shouldn't post my workouts anymore. and I was told by someone else, "why the hell not? It's something you are passionate about." So, if people don't want to read them, then don't. But I like keeping a journal of my training. And I am training. maybe for my last meet for a while. Its been hard getting my workouts in with my massage appointments and working at the gym. And I need to concentrate, and put first, my new business.  Maybe if I were 20 years younger...lol.

Anyway, I always look for new programs to get me stronger. I really liked the Smolov Jr. program but I think I pushed it to the limit and failed on my last round, so I stopped. I'm 22 days out from my meet so I think I just need to get the work in, keep things light since there's no time to get strong. Work on form and get my confidence back up.

So today was a bench day I guess.

1) Bench
bar x 8
65 x 8
75 x 5 x 5

2) Close grip bench
65 x 3 x 10

3) Hammer strength incline bench
+30 x 3 x 8

and thats it. I workout at night now. I kinda like it because there are lots of nice people there. but its tiring too. Sometimes I get to divide my workouts between appointments which works too. I really just have 2 more weeks of getting the work in before my meet and then I can figure out a new schedule.

hope I haven't bored anyone :)

Wise Words

Who's black, tall, a little grumpy, with 50 gold earrings in one ear? My friend. and this is what he said:

"Christene. You're thinking too much about this meet. Stop thinking about the lifts. You aleady know what the weight feels like. You know what the bar feels like in your hands. You know your body is ready to lift anything you attempt. There's no one in your weight class so its just you against you. But you are your worse enemy. Just think about the damn pizza. and have fun."

ok.
