#DYEL #glutes #DOMS

On February 1, 2013 by Juliet

I’ve decided to carry out most of my conversations in #hashtag format from now on. Albeit, I think an entire blog post would be a bit cumbersome. #storyofmylife

Between my meet and his traveling, Coach B and I didn’t plan any programming for this week.  Originally I was going to take the week off and ease back into things… false. I went back in yesterday to just have some fun with some light lifts I’ve been neglecting. The workout was very simple, very light, and I felt like going bodybuilding style with my 3 sets of 10. #what

goblet RFESS – 3×10
single leg RDLs – 3×8-10
front squats – 5×2
deficit deadlifts – 3×6

MAN! I managed to almost puke during and now I have worse lower body DOMs today than I did from my meet. #FML #powerlifting For the past few months I’ve been doing solely heavy, bilateral work and it has taken a serious toll on my ability to do unilateral work. I guess #useitorloseit

Have the hashtags sufficiently pissed you off yet?
Okay, I’ll keep it up.

Having to concoct my own training yesterday made me remember why I don’t write my own programming anymore. I kind of suck at it and will just meander around doing whatever it is I want to do with a “oh this sounds fun” mentality but never really getting better (or stronger) at anything. ‘Suck’ is too negative for this Friday morning so let me rephrase. I have skills in places other than writing programming. I’m very good at analyzing scientific data! It’s the only reason I passed my nutrition class last semester!

I could ramble on for ages about things that may or may not interest you:

  • A regular youtube series is about to emerge
  • I’ve decided to legit put effort into eating copious amounts to get my lifts up
  • I ended up not finishing my Whole30. I got lazy and it was too tedious to eat 80000 sweet potatoes to get in enough calories the day before my meet.
  • my glutes are really sore – that hasn’t improved while writing this
  • Harold

    Let me just tell you that #IAbsolutelyLove Your #MisuseOfHashtags, it’s one of those #ThingsThatMakeMeSmile.

    Also, #DOMS are the best, I can’t feel my quads after the #RFESS that I did on Wednesday. Can’t wait to see your numbers go up as you #WorkTowardsAHigherTotal #Ain’tThatTheNameOfTheGame?
