Conditioning: Recovery Prowler Workout: 1/1/13

Conditioning: 1/1/13

Recovery Prowler Push:

Load: 70 lbs
Terrain: Pavement
Time: 15 minutes
Distance: ~0.38 miles

Feeling sore from my session yesterday so decided to do the Recovery prowler workout as per suggested from Molly Galbraith’s article here: http://articles.elit…or-the-prowler/
Took it for a nice little walk and heart rate did not even hit 150 BPM.
I did took a few short rests before I hit the max heart rate goal.
Good way to start the New Year!

Conditioning: Prowler Push: 7/25/12

Conditioning: 7/25/12

Prowler Push:

Laps 1-4:
Weight: 90 lbs
Distance: 40 Yards/Lap
Rest: 60 seconds
Terrain: Asphalt

Laps 5-10:
Weight: 160 lbs
Distance: 40 Yards/Lap
Rest: 90 seconds
Terrain: Asphalt

Total Time: 15m 58.06s

I decided to use the prowler on familiar grounds considering I had a hard time the last session.
Used 2 45 lb plates on the 1st 4 laps then added 2 35 lb plates for the rest of it.
Build myself back up to 4 45 lb plates then add more from there … in time.

I was originally planning to take a nap before I push the prowler but sleep wouldn’t come so I just went out and get it over with.
Good session and not as bad as I was expecting it to be.
I think another handful of sessions and I should be able to add more weight to it.

PS:
This week is supposed to be the Deload week for Cycle 6 of 5/3/1.
Decided to just do some conditioning and rest before I start Cycle 7 this Saturday instead.

Conditioning: Prowler Push: 7/22/12

Conditioning: 7/22/12

Prowler Push:

Laps 1-4:
Weight: 90 lbs
Distance: 40 Yards/Lap
Rest: 60 seconds
Terrain: Asphalt

Laps 5-6:
Weight: 180 lbs
Distance: 40 Yards/Lap
Rest: 90 seconds
Terrain: Asphalt

Laps 6-10:
Weight: 90 lbs
Distance: 40 Yards/Lap
Rest: 90 seconds
Terrain: Asphalt

Total Time: 17m 55.4s

Decided to try the other side of the parking lot near my apartment as it was empty on a Sunday afternoon.
Only had a protein shake and some BCAA tabs after I woke-up to start some conditioning.
Had a serving of Purple Wraath and Instantized BCAA Powder in my water bottle with ice.

The pavement I think had more friction compared to the driveway behind my apartment that I normally use my prowler on.
That and I think I need to improve on my strength and conditioning a bit more.
Had to remove the 2 extra plates after I did 2 laps with them knowing I am not good enough at the time to do the rest of the laps with them.

Good times though and nothing like using the prowler to teach you a lesson in humility!
That and the need to improve more!

Really need to try harder in quitting smoking as it really makes my endurance suck.

5/3/1: C5W5D2: Squat & Bench Press: 6/22/12

C5W5D2: 6/22/12

Slept around 6-7 hours before work.
Was originally planning to sleep after work then do a quick session right before I go back to work.
Arrived home early enough from my graveyard shift then walked my dogs and couldn’t help myself but drive straight to the gym and do a quick session.
Actually felt great as I arrived at the gym and only thing I had was some BCAA tabs, which I took when I walked my dogs, and my Intra-workout drink (Purple Wraath + 1 serving Instantized BCAA + 28 oz Water/ice). (9/10)
Did not take any stims today so I can hopefully sleep after the session.
Just did the two main lifts I had to do and went home.
No vids on both as I just wanted to get everything done and get out.
Nice end to cycle 5!
