Missed Friday's workout; Just accessories so I don't feel too bad.

Picked up a new motorcycle over the weekend too. Honda CRF300L dual sport. I may use it to commute to work on nice days, and to explore some of the trails around here. Cant seem to get to ride it though. My youngest boy (16) has taken a real liking to it

Also took friday and today off work to complete a project over the weekend and finished up around 5pm. Built a bear proof aviary for my bees. Will have 8 hives going this year so need to protect my little workers!

As a result I was pretty tired going in to today's workout. Definitely feeling my age today.

I love those little bikes. My brother used to have the 250.

I love those little bikes. My brother used to have the 250.

Yeah, it's a fun little bike. It doesn't hit hard like my 2 stroke 250 but has a nice wide powerband and pulls not too bad on the top. The longer term plan is to give it to my kid and get me a 500 KTM dual sport.

Had some severe motivational issues today. Took the week off to work on the farm, spent all day today outside weed wacking, brushing etc. Back was sore, did not feel like working out and almost pushed off my workout.

Squat
Bar-10
155-5
265-5
340-1
409-5,5,5, Compared to last week these were much harder despite being only a few pounds heavier. Still had a couple reps to spare on the first couple sets, last set maybe 1 rep. Vid of 1st set - had to motivate myself with a couple grunts!


Calf raise - 200-12 - only do these for foot health. keeps the plantar fasciitis and other issues away for me.

Comp bench
Bar-15
155-5
265-2
341-2,2,1 - Vid of 1st set. Last set just did 1 as I hit a wall and didn't want to grind out a second. Didn't bother with sling shot as I was wiped out.


Tricep push downs - did a couple easy sets to finish

[Skid]

Another weak day, at least as far as my deadlift is concerned- Spent too much energy working outside again. I'll get back on track when I get back to my desk job next week.

Deadlift
Bar-10
155-5
265-3
375-3
475-1 - Supposed to be five but didn't have it in me today
375-5 - Salvaged some of my workout by dropping 100 lbs - Not a total loss. If I was smart I would take a deload this week, but I don't have that going for me

DB Incline bench
65-7
120-7,7,7, - At least these went not too bad. +1 rep each set from last week. Made a vid but the angle wasn't the best - not sure you folks want a straight on look at my balls. Will go off to the side next time.

OH chins
BW-6,6,6, Pulled my fat ass up 6 times. Did less than last week.

1 arm Kettle bell row
123-6,6, each arm

DB curls - did standing, sitting, and preacher - Got a gunz pump for the win.

120-7,7,7, - At least these went not too bad. +1 rep each set from last week. Made a vid but the angle wasn't the best - not sure you folks want a straight on look at my balls. Will go off to the side next time.

Laughed because I did the same thing a week or so ago, benching. Went back and forth and eventually decided that it was just too ridiculous. You all would have known me as well as my girlfriend.
