Diary of dswithers

I think I will start keeping an exercise journal. Feel free to comment on anything.

I will be 52 next week (12/28). I am 5'10", 208 pounds, around 15% body fat and am trying to up my strength and lower my body fat. I generally do an upper/lower split, 4-6 days a week, depending on time available.

Wednesday 12/20/2006 workout:
Deadlift - sort of a 5x5, 2 warm up sets and 5 heavy sets:
8x135
6x225
6x315
3x375
6x325
6x325
6x325
I usually do calves and abs after, but I was in a hurry today, so I skipped them.

Thanks. I guess have had twice as long as you to practice! Actually I had a lot of back problems years ago and started doing SLDL with the empty bar for 15+ reps, and gradually added weight over many years until I was doing 315+ for 8 reps. Just started doing standard deadlifts a couple of months ago. It will be intersting to see how high I can go at my age before I hit a plateau.

Today is a rest day, too many Christmas Parties to attend!

took Monday and Tuesday off, first 2 day berak in a few months

Short workout in my basement today, still have company and have to go to the office for half a day today:
Warmup
Handstand Pushups: 8
Widegrip Pullups: 10
Bench Press 12x130

DE BenchPress with Mini-Bands 3x10x130+Bands

(Santa brought me some bands for Christmas! First time I have tried them. Fit nicely on my power rack, but my power rack may need to be bolted down when I try to use heavier bands) I really felt this across the top of my chest over my colar bones! Hopefully it will help devolop the top of my chest to match the larger lower portion!

Bent Row: 4x12x140
