November 7th, 2011

Notes:

  • Happy with my progress toward my November goal of pressing the 28kg. 
  • I was able to complete a nine rung ladder with the 24kg, so that is a good sign.  I will complete the ladder program this week, with the ten rung day scheduled for Friday.
  • Jim has me cleaning with the 28kg, so that I can get used to the weight.

Started ladders this week!

Saturday: 5 minutes of swings x4. Swinging the 20kg 12-15 reps. Felt great.

little weak on the pushups initially then did a mind game of only counting the reps to 5, 4 times. Some how counting to 5 four times made it possible to do the 20 pushups rather than…
