^ Video is of my last set of bench press. The way to post videos seems to have changed and I don't want to deal with it right now.

I had a pretty good weekend. We had two 65 degree days here in northeast Ohio. I got the itch to take my bicycle out and I ended up riding for about 2.5 hours on Saturday. I did a lot of stretching and rumble rolling in between then and today and I feel pretty good. The cycling didn't seem to affect my workout at all. You never know what kind of weather Cleveland will bring you but I'm glad I had a chance to enjoy a day outside.

I did a quick jog of 1.5 miles in 12:10. The USCG standard is 12:31 so I have it beat, but I can do better. I bought a rumble roller and this thing hurts like hell, but I feel great after using it.

I'm probably going to do some stretching and rumble rolling later. I have some reading to do for school and some ASVAB studying to do. I have to take it again if I want to get into the Coast Guard. I have some light bruising on the outside of both my quads. I think that it may be related to beginning the use of a rumble roller as opposed to a foam roller but I'm not sure. It hurts to use but, then again, the foam roller hurt the first few times I used it. I'm going to tread lightly with it and see what happens. I can feel the benefits of this thing after using it only a few times so I won't stop.

I jogged 1.5 miles in 12:14.

I felt pretty damn tired today but my time only suffered by a few seconds since the last jog. I'd like to get down to about a 11:30 so I can at least be in a range of comfort for whenever I am tested on the run.

I jogged 1.5 miles this morning in around 14 minutes. I didn't time it because the ground wasn't dry but I did look at the time I started/stopped on my IPOD. Snow+boots= not good times.
1a. seated ohp
warmup
135x5
152.5 x3
170x1

1b. pullups

3b. neck harness

I have been slacking on my rumble rolling and recovery work this week. I have been kind of busy as of late looking for jobs and beating my way through red tape between my school and the VA. I was too lazy to do situps today so I will do them in the morning and go for a jog as well. Running in the snow sucks but I figure that if I can do that, then running on flat, dry ground in comfortable weather with running shoes instead of hiking boots should be a piece of cake.

1/27/13

1. deadlifts
warmup
327.5 x5
380x5
430x4 (missed a rep)

I just did deadlifts this morning because I have a lot on my plate and don't have much time between school and work. I have a meeting with a USCG recruiter this week and an appointment to take an exam for the US postal service so I'm keeping busy. I just hope that one of these things I'm working towards comes through for me because I really need it.

BWx30x4

2. pushups
BWx38 in 1 minute (I didn't use the perfect pushup because I wanted it test how many I can do the real way)

1. squats
warmup
257.5

335x4 (I could have put up the fifth rep, but instead I didn't man up and I racked it.)

I jogged 1.5 miles in around 14 minutes. There is a lot of snow on the ground right now. I should have more time next week to get in a full training session instead of only doing the main exercise.

I haven't jogged in a couple days. I think I am going to go in the morning tomorrow. I have had a rough couple days. I have been getting my training in, but it hasn't been going as well as I would like it to be and I've been missing lifts.
