9/1

Yeah, I know, haven't gone to the gym in a few days. I figured this would be one of those rest weeks that are supposed to be good for you. I tried some pliometrics today, along with a mini-upper body workout:

Dumbbell Bench:
60x10
70x8
80x3 (goddamnit, kinda stuck there. then again, i guess it's good i'm maintaining considering i'm not eating as much.)
Rows:
80x10
90x8
90x8

The 90s were surprisingly easy, I was just planning on going for 6 or something. I'm pretty sure I could do 10 next time.

Pliometrics:
3 sets of 10 squat jumps

Abs:
I did some leg raises, but then I just wanted to do the pliometrics.

Those jumps are INTENSE. I was breathing so hard after that last set. Maybe once I get good at them, add weights? If I can just add about 6 inches to my vert, I can touch the rim, which would be pretty baller. So I guess that means cutting the fat, increasing my squat, and more of this pliometric stuff.
