Tonight I threw up some weight. First 135, 185 and 205 for benching. Nothing out of the ordinary there. Then we did two rounds of push presses, dips and kettle bell swings. First round you do as much as you can, rest for three minutes, then try to match the same reps as the first round.
I did 12 push presses, 30 dips and 26 kettle bell swings, then finished up the second round in 1:56. But here's the thing, I went heavy, about 115 lbs for the push press, so I didn't rep out as much as I could have. Twelve reps wasn't that hard to do. The kettlebells were the same way. I did the 44 lbs kettle. Not bad. Plus I got my motion down so I'm not trying to power it up with my back and shoulders anymore.
I don't know, should I have gone for less weight and more reps? Maybe. I just get a better workout if my reps are higher, I know that. It almost feels like I didn't workout tonight. Maybe if I went 95 lbs on the push press I could have gone for 25 reps or higher.
Oh and I should point out that the workout actually calls for ring dips, not regular dips. But I can't do those yet. I've been working on it though. Maybe I should have gone for it tonight. Yeah, then maybe I wouldn't be whining about how I don't feel like I worked out tonight. Grrrrrrrrr . . .
On another note, I didn't eat a damn thing today and I'm not hungry. Just had too many things to do. Should I be worried about my lack of hunger? It's not like I don't have the fat to spare. Then again this girl's dinner next to me is looking good. Hmmm, maybe it's time I go home and have a meal before I assault this girl for her chicken salad.
