Powerlifting Training 11/25/18 - Bench Day

11/25/2018

0 Comments

 
Today's training was at the 24 Hour Fitness Super Sport gym in Walnut, CA. This morning I was able to get 10 reps with 300lbs on the bench press. After that, I was smoked, so I dropped down to 6 reps for 3 sets and I was able to complete each set without any issues. The same thing happened on the dumbbell press and on the pulldowns, in which I was fatiguing after the 1st, but I was able to maintain the lower rep range without any issues.

I was able to stretch out on the opposing muscles during rest periods and also stretched out throughout the day. So far, I was able to get in about 10 minutes of stretching. I will use the massage stick later as well. Yesterday and on Friday, I used the massager with the infrared lights on my legs to help out with recovery. I felt great after the workout and I wasn't huffying and puffing at all. Hopefully, I get to see what my conditioning level is like once I get back on the mats this week. 

I am looking forward to see on how hard I can push myself during the rolls. I will be doing the same recovery techniques each day until NoGi Worlds. I plan on signing up this weekend.
