Sumo behind..

I have been off schedule with my posting, all I have is excuses & so I won’t go into detail, but I have been spending my weekends “supposedly” studying 😀 

 

As per usual, my Sumo deadlifts are always a week behind my other core lifts — please excuse any confusion this may cause. 

 
 
  • Sumo deadlift: 3 x 3

 

  • 70% of 90% of 1-RM: 150 lb
  • 80% of 90% of 1-RM: 170 lb
  • 90% of 90% of 1-RM: 190 lb

 

The sumo’s went over well, I recover from them faster than I do conventional deadlifts and I am still trying to find my comfort level with sumo’s as far as feet placement goes — how far to stretch so that I am both comfortable and reducing injury. 

 
  • Power clean to push press: 3 x 3, 105 lb
  • Power clean: 3 x 3, 105 lb

The superset of these was hard, but I was doing a horrible job Saturday with both of these lifts. No idea why but it did frustrate me, maybe it was my nerves, anxiety or my low energy levels or maybe I was losing some strength or not taking a long enough break between them. I don’t know, but I plan on going back to them Saturday and hopefully performing better. Wish me Luck!

 
  • Smith machine narrow stance squats: 5 x 15, 75 lb
  • DB bicep curls: 5 x 15, 40 lb
  • DB overhead triceps extension: 5 x 15, 20 lb

Cardio workout:

  • Treadmill interval running: 20 minutes, walk: 1 min, run: 2.2 (speed at 5.5)

You can assume I have a love for fitness & a love for Wonderwoman -- both assumptions are correct. I am an ACSM certified personal trainer of 8+ years -- I currently reside in Ohio and live a simplistic life at the age of 29. If I am not lifting, I am eating, sleeping, traveling, exploring, or movie watching. I recently moved during a pandemic, now I am focused on self care (self love), building a business of my own in personal training, becoming a professional blogger, starting a podcast and doing things that make me happy! I am a sister, daughter, and loyal friend --- I love everyone's dog and I am on a mission to pet as many dogs as possible everywhere I go! LOL. My mission is to talk health (physical/mental), design programming, motivational speak, learn, grow, prosper, build others and make as many people smile as possible because I want nothing more than to be the change I seek in the world.
