We have arrived. Training Block 2.
First out of the gate is the chest, shoulders, & triceps routine. Many push-ups and new variations of which once again, resulted in me crashing into the floor face first for yet another rug sandwich. I thought that push-ups were going to be my strong suit, after all, in 2008 I did over 50,000 of them (Some of you may remember the great push-up campaign of 2008).
Turns out if you don't use it you lose it.
Anyway, this being Training Block 2 and all, I really upped the ante. Each exercise was done to failure or nausea. Is that good or bad? I don't know but I got to wondering if I would have full use of my upper body today. I do.
Overall, good routine. I need to get 10 and 15 lbs dumbbells though because the bands just don't quite cut it for me on certain exercises...and 25's...well, I'm not there yet.
Ab Ripper X: So we meet again.
Me: Yes, Long time no see old friend.
Ab Ripper X: So you think your Kung Fu is pretty good, huh?
Me: I want to fight your brother...him against me.
Ab Ripper X: No, you will fight me. Let's Kung Fu!
And so it goes... just like many times before, I was left writhing in pain on the floor as Ab Ripper X faded to black, only to return again on Wednesday when I will be taken to task for the 11th time.
