Week 2

Well it's been a while, I know. However, I've been very busy. I finished out the week with day 5 and 6, sets of 10 suck, no matter how you put them. My Epsom slat bath helped a lot and I felt really good after it. I started week 2 Monday with my incline bench and shoulder presses, I got a huge pump out of the work out which I enjoy. I also started working more at Velocity Hockey Center on Monday, this will be a good chance for me to try some new things out on some young athletes. Also, it will make me extreamly busy over the summer which is good.

Yesterday, I did my squats. 5x8 is so much, but I did them with Sara Wiley, she can always get me going...one tough chick. Did my squats and my RDLs, It was good and I'm not nearly as soar today as I was this time last week. One of the more troubling things that is happening on this work out is the fact that I'm gaining weight. I've been around the 257 range now, I was hoping that I would lean up some more, but I'm only 1.5 weeks into it, so I should just be patient.

Thanks for all the notes, on my previous blogs. It's nice to hear that people are actually reading this. I'll post more later!

Stay Strong

  1. Thanks for the update!

    What protocol do you use for the Epsom salt bath? I've had good luck with a whole quart of Epsom, hot water and relax (don't burn yourself though) and maybe some breathing drills if I am feeling crazy or really stressed out. I find it works great right before bed too as the temp change tends to make ya sleepy. I would be interested on your thoughts on this.

    Good stuff!!
    rock on
