Bench, Lunges, Squats and Pullups/Thrusters

Completed my first workout in awhile, second in the office gym here. Lunchtime workouts are a bit tough for me as I feel somewhat distracted/rushed. That said, the gym here is decent for an office gym – it’s got a squat/bench rack that you can use to spot yourself – downside being that it’s limited motion (only up and down) so you can’t stabilize as much. Also has a pull-up bar spot (one of those huge cable cross machines with the pull-up bar in the middle – which I like better than the standalone assisted pull or VKR stations). Plus two sections of dumbbells.

Here was my workout:

- Bench press: 135 lbs 4x10, 145 x 3, 155 x 3, superset the first four sets with
- Lunges: 2x35 lbs, 4x10

- Squats @ 185 lbs 4x4

- 10x kipping pull-ups, 2 sets, superset with
- 10x 2x20 lbs Thrusters

Felt pretty beat at this point, which is why I stopped here. Not trying to push to exhaustion – just near it. Also working towards implementing a more Martin Berkhan-style Intermittent Fasting regiment.

This sub-blog captures my daily workouts (if any). It was created in July and has been maintained fairly religiously since August 2008. Its purpose is to serve as a record of activity and a reminder to stay active. Theoretically, it will serve as a record of what "works." Questions or comments, just let know. Navigating it for specific workout ideas is best accomplished using the tag cloud.
