Today's Training:

 

Weight: 168 lbs

 

Cardio:

Assorted running drills + 2 mile jog for a total of 30 minutes excercise

 

Strength Training: Back and Biceps

 

Assorted cardio excercises performed during rest time between sets and excercises. 1 minute rest times.

 

Pullups: 5, 8, 5, 5, 8

Dumbbell Rows: 70 x 8, 70 x 8, 70 x 8

Lat Pulldowns: 140 x 8, 140 x 8, 140 x 8, 140 x 10

Dumbbell Shrugs: 70 x 8, 70 x 8, 70 x 8, 70 x 12

Dumbbell Curls: 35 x 8, 35 x 8, 35 x 8

Cable Curls: 70 x 8, 70 x 8, 60 x 10

Preacher Curl Machine: 70 x 8, 70 x 10, 70 x 10

 

Notes: This is my first time fully implementing cardio acceleration techniques during my strength sessions, and the effect was a whole lot of sweat! The trick seems to be in utilizing the right excercises so that I can maintain an elevated heart rate without getting completely gassed and losing strength. So far, jump roping, bench step ups and jumping lunges are in, and high knee jumps are out!
