I was going to try a Tu, Th, S, S lifting schedule so I could rest more between sets. But I decided to try maybe a M, W, F, S lifting schedule so I can walk longer on Tuesday. And I was a bit too tired to walk long today.
Sunday: leg stuff and a 4 mile walk.
weights: low: 10 x 134, 10 x 184, 10 x 224. 4 inch: 10 x 271 (not great, but ..well, I did it)
leg stuff: lots of free squats; weights: goblet 4 sets of 5 to the box (low) 2 with 28, 2 with 54. Then 3 sets of belt squats: 10 x 40, 2 sets of 5 x 98
Then a very, stiff, flat walk.
Today: pull ups: 10 sets of 5 (2 chin, 2 mixed grip) 40 second hold.
downstairs: 10 x 94, 3 sets of 5 x 115, miss at 130 that I turned into a pin press and 10 reps with 94.
bench: 3 sets of 7 with 134 super set with curls (3 sets of 10)
Then 2 2-mile commuter walks.
The left glute and back was stiff today; rolled a lot. But I feel like I need an assisted open book stretch. What has changed: maybe the extra squats (these have improved) or all of the treadmill at an incline stuff (at faster paces). No, the pain is nothing like the mean old days, or even like October 2022, or when I was recovering from COVID. The pain does seem to increase in the winter though, even if the pain is oh-so-mild compared to the mean old days.
Oh yes, 10 push ups to remember the movement. And I’ve reintroduced hip-hikes to my PT.
My failed lift plus pin press:
