Lifting Pecs… 4 sets of bench. 3 sets of chest press machine. 1 set of incline dumbell bench. 3 sets of grippers Oh and I broke ANOTHER resistance band. I need to find stronger ones. Judo Sacrifice throws (sutemi waza) and triangle (sankaku jime) escapes. I didn’t do the former, except some fits. Will . . . → Read More: Love Triangle – Sat, Apr 25, 2009 I can’t quite capture in words what I feel when I have to sit out in training because of an injury. I still show up though, and I think people don’t realize how hard it is to do that. I would be lying if I called it frustration. Sometimes it’s just plain anger. I . . . → Read More: Riding the Bench – Fri, Apr 24, 2009 Lifting Leg day. SOB. Given how much I deadlift, I can’t believe how tough lunges with 135 was. I should be able to do 225 ten times I think by June. I’ll at least work towards that. Anyway, I did squats, lunges, grips, and core. Judo at Drexel Two throws that cause me much . . . → Read More: Two Troublemakers – Thu, Apr 23, 2009 No lifting, just judo (at Main Line) today. I successfully escaped being thrown, and actually got a chance to throw about 30 times (te guruma, seoi nage, osoto gari, harai ogoshi, ouchi gari). Overall it was a very nice training sessions in the sense that Tom closely looked at the way I was doing . . . → Read More: Not Quite Koga (Yet) – Wed, Apr 22, 2009 Did osoto-gari today. Around 50 uchikomi in class, and FINALLY allowed myself to be thrown. It felt great. Shoulders were a bit cranky but no real pain rose up. I really like the “fit 4, throw on 5″ pattern. It’s good for my shoulder and soul. Also did about 100 seoi nage uchikomi with . . . → Read More: Back to the Basics – Tue, Apr 21, 2009 Returned from taking a day off with a vengeance, until energy ran out… I need more sleep. There’s too much work, and as always, sleep is the first thing to go. But… before judo I had a hell of an upper-back workout. I made that 100 lbs dumbell my bitch with single-hand rows of . . . → Read More: Dead or Alive – Mon, Apr 20, 2009 Dear Diary, I didn’t do any moving today. I woke up at 8am and just worked until 3pm when I had to go to my parent’s to celebrate their birthday where I drank, though not as much as I expected. But I did eat. And MAN, did I eat. Stuffing my face with fruit . . . → Read More: Easy Like Sunday Morning – Sun, Apr 19, 2009 I guess I should start posts off with some quantitative data on the day’s training. Intensity is on a scale of 0 to 4: 0: very light (lots of walking, yawning, and no sweat) 1: light (same as medium, but with some sitting-out, so basically trying to do medium but failing because of injury) . . . → Read More: Squats are a Man’s Best Friend – Sat, Apr 18, 2009 Practice at Mainline Judo Club I drove a couple girls (Sarah, Joan). Matt had to stay home, so we had another instructor: Nick. It was not the same without seeing Matt on the sidelines with the excited/frustrated “I want to get on the mat, but I shouldn’t” look on his face. Not sure if . . . → Read More: Lonely Friday without Lonely Matt – Fri, Apr 17, 2009 Watching Judo 90kg Hiroshi Izumi (JPN) vs Daniel Kelly (AUS). I need to work on Ouchi and Kouchi. And damn… 90kg is no joke. These dudes are thick and powerful. Ended up going into golden score. And once again ashiwaza gets a yuko and a win. Hiroshi Izumi might be going for the medals. . . . → Read More: Nervous Bench – Thu, Apr 17, 2009 |
