13 Sets:  Snatch to OH Squat (1 snatch to 3 squats) @ 70lbs

Journal

Sandbag lift x 15 @ 150lbs

Notes:
In a perfect world it would have been shouldered. In my world, not so much. Interesting workout.

My last weight gaining experience ended up with a 25lbs gain, maybe 8 or so actual muscle.  I’m sitting at 160 right now looking on the chubby side.  I’d like to see 170 at least, 180 in my dream land WHILE being active.  I can live with being fat, it’s the out of shape part that hurts my feelings.

Shadow Boxing x 30min
1.5mi run @ 11:30

Notes:
It was an OK day. The running was PT related…which was fairly gay. If you’re in charge of leading a group of people through exercise, please show a little originality. Boring = bad

Bulking = Just eating more.  The last time I got plenty fat, but I also didn’t move much at all.  This time I figure I’ll probably get plenty fat, but crossing my fingers that being active will make coming out of the fatness a little less painful.  The calorie counting and doing things “the right way” is just a challenge that I really don’t want to deal with.  It’s not “that” hard, but it’s a little more time consuming than I really care to invest in.  When I’m tired of being fat I’ll pull a Dan John and declare war on the fatness for a month and knock off a layer.  Until then, try to take full advantage of an elevated calorie intake.

Shadow Boxing x 10 2min rounds (bas rutten all round fighting)

Notes:
It doesn’t really look hard but it’s freaking brutal. I took off quite a bit and tried to make what I did “technically sound”. Figure it’s better to have form than just to flail around wildly.

I also decided to go back up in weight. This time I’m going try to be a “fit fatty” vs a mildly strong fatty.

Milestone

The addition of the “Every Thing’s Over My Head” review marks number 25 for this blog.  Even though one of them is a guest review, I’m still claiming a milestone here.   Hopefully everyone is enjoying the blog and the second half of my beer shall be dedicated to good times in the future!

Cheers!

My training buddy is going lame so that’s why things have been thrown off a little over the past week or so.  I’m adjusting and trying to figure out something that we can both do that will be challenging.
