September 8 2011 - Dead man walking

Daily Dose

Dead lift 3,3,3,3,3 Max weight
post your dead lift weight to the comments section of the site. Record for each set (3 reps completed non-stop)

2 min rest

Dead Walk 3 x 100m
Grab the two heaviest things you can hold and go walking (one in each hand) Keep your shoulders back, chest open and eyes looking ahead and walk it out. 


I'm calling this exercise the dead walk because @ the end of each set your legs will feel drained of energy and in a sense dead.

At the end of today's Dose you will be like a dead man walking and your legs will feel even sorer in the days ahead. Take some time to stretch out your bodies major muscle groups and be sure to get some protein back into your system real quick for amino acids that help your body repair and grow. Tomorrow is a scheduled rest day so no excuses for pulling rank and being soft on today's Dose.

Sept 5 2011 - Have a break

Today is a rest day

What you do with your rest days is for your own discretion ... If you feel like a beer or 10 thats up to you. Know that having them will slow your recovery, affect your health and reduce the output you can generate from your workout tomorrow. Some may say, a drink or two in good company can be very relaxing, unwinding and satisfying, and that is fine too. It is really is up to you what you choose to do. Know the effects of what you are doing so that you can make educated choices.

Looking forward to tomorrows session already
