Today’s workout: my first “new” Saturday workout; Tu, Th, Sat, Sun are now my weight training days, M, W, F, Su will be my walk days with a bonus on Saturday IF my body is up to it.
It is my new reality; weights take more time in this part of my life.
Highlights; pull ups were ok, 2 mile easy walk was pain free (yay!) and I bench pressed 200 lb (touch and go) for the first time since July 27, 2018. Of course, I did that at 195 lb and I am probably a bit heavier than that right now (say 203? I’ll weigh tomorrow)
Pull ups: sets of 5 mostly; some singles set; one set of 10 (reps 6 to 15); did some as chin ups. Rotator cuff, hip hikes in between sets.
Bench: 10 x 134, 1 x 200, 2 x 184, 3 x 174, 4 x 170 (seen), 5 x 165
Shoulder: 3 x 109, 7 x 100, 10 x 96, then 10 x 44 dumbbells.
Rows: 4 sets of 10 x 134 trap bar.
push ups: 40, 30, 10,
headstand
then the easy 2 mile walk; no pain.
Rolling, PT afterward.

Chin ups…got the height. Reps 31-35
Pull ups: reps 36-40…struggling a bit.
4 x 170 with the bench; 10 x 134, 1 x 200 (touch-go), 2 x 184, 3 x 174 came first; 5 x 165 followed.
Note: videos are for my own information; I am painfully aware of how average/below average my performances are.
Today: I was happy about the better than recent bench press and the lack of pain during my walk (easy and short, to be sure).
