Blog Entry: Health and Fitness -- Strength Training (4 sets for each exercise) My last week of power training. The next couple of weeks will most likely be improvised, until I can think of a new way I'd like to train. I did Seated Russian Twists (Rotational -- 8 reps) and Power Snatches (Explosive) on all four days. All exercises: 4 Sets, 4 Reps. Monday Knee Dominant (bilateral): Barbell Overhead Squat Hor. Push (unilateral): Alt DB Chest Press Vert. Push (bilateral): Barbell Push Press Tuesday Hip Dominant (unilateral): Single Leg Supine Hip Extension Hor. Pull (bilateral): Barbell Row Vert. Pull (unilateral): Side to Side Pull-Ups w/ weight Thursday Knee Dominant (unilateral): Step Ups w/ Barbell Hor. Push (bilateral): Bench Press Vert. Push (unilateral): Alt DB Shoulder Press Friday Hip Dominant (bilateral): Romanian Deadlift Hor. Pull (unilateral): Alt DB Row Vert. Pull (bilateral): Mixed Grip Pull-Ups w/ weight CARDIO : I finally reached one of my goals with running. I was able to finish 2 miles in 14:15 (rounding up, to be conservative). 14:15 may not seem like much, but I like to think it's pretty decent for a 180-185 lb, 26 year old guy, with flat feet and legs that aren't that long. Martial Arts I'm in the process of trying to figure out a new schedule when it comes to martial arts. My school is going to start introducing a mixed martial arts class. The membership will be included with the current Brazilian Jiu Jitsu program. Basically, it'll end up the same price for either or both programs (Two nights of MMA, Two for BJJ). My schedule has been busy enough, so if I end up continuing my cross training, I'll probably go to no more than 3 nights (2 BJJ, 1 MMA), while continuing to help teach and practice Taekwondo. This summer I'm also doing a Summer Camp program, as well as an exercise class for a day care. So this should end up being a busy season.
