Yesterday went back to CUHK and had gym training with ar wah and Jim. I cant remember the last time we trained together, at least one year i think.
The training was good and we all exhusted after 3 hrs workout. Here are the exercises we trained:
snatch (40kg)
bench press (70kg)
lat pull down (10)
bent-over row (50kg)
full squat (80kg)
dumbbell arm curl (35lbs on each side)
dumbbell chest fly (25lbs on each side)
dumbbell chest press (70lbs on each side)
we were doing the py protocol and the weights stated above were on the heaivest set:
1st set: 12 reps
2nd set: 10reps
3rd set: 8 reps
4th set: 6reps
5th set: 12reps
This is an informal training compared with that i used to have in HKSI. But i like this one becoz after every set we chat a lot and then the next set. Yea...we adjust the rest time by our perceived hardness.
We used to train like this 3-4 years ago, that was the most tiring but enjoyable time i have ever had in the gym (as an exerciser, not coach).
Today my traps (especially T2 muscle from snatch), upper chest, and hip adductor feel sore. Other muscles are ok. You know....usually i dont train my legs (my leg muscles are good and strength enough i think), but just a little bit workout with you guys as a training partner. I think i can go to 100kg next time for the full squat.
Will wait for the next happy training. And i will bring my most important training equipment with me, i.e. my 3yr-old glove.
