400m run
75cal row
400m run
50cal row
400m run
25cal row
Felt great doing this bright and early today. Went at 5am this morning and the gym was dead and didnt have to wait for a treadmill. My runs were: 2:35, 2:17, 1:55, and 1:46. Knee felt great on the runs, downfall of the treadmill is that it took about 5 to 15 seconds for the treadmill to get to the speed that was programmed. My row numbers were: 4:56, 4:10, 2:50, 1:07.
PM: At my favorite gym...Balance
Strength:
Fat/Thick Bar Deadlift
3-3-3-3-3
Finished my last round with 415#. Still trying to get stronger.
Met Con:
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
Deadlifts (275#) using thick bar
DB Bench Press (75#)
Strict Chest to Bar Pullups
Finished in 15:25. Grip felt great with the thick bar, bench press was also pretty easy, and the pullups were also good. I think i should have used 300# on the deadlifts.

Steve,
Can you share with me the benefits of using thick bar? Thank you.

Hey Darm.
Using the thick bar has helped my grip strength a lot. it forces your forarms to generate tension, which will help in upper body strength.
i use the thick bar every now and then for every workout. Its a good change.
