Power Workout Part 1

I've said it before.  Power in lifting can be easily defined.  How much weight can you get off the ground, and then up and over your head.  Easy right?

Warm Up
Strict barbell military press 10/5/4/3/2/1 (progressively heavier)
20 rep squat set
Thick handled dumbbell bent over rows
Neck work
Grip work
50 rep set of crunches

Tomorrow, basketball, and more running up and down the stairs trying to get the second floor remodeled in my house.

Check back Sunday for 2 of 3 of the Power Workout Series

The Never Ending

When you've got a baby on the way, a house in "remodel mode", and the Christmas season bearing down on you, it can seem like the great never ending do-dah.  Guilty of not working out and letting other pass times override what little time I have free.

Lifting tonight.

Basketball Saturday morning.

I'm pulling down a new workout idea from The Dinosaur Files for this month.  The mainstay of the workouts, my favorite, the overhead press.  That workout scheme will trickle out of this blog over the next week.
