Workout Log: Bench (Sunday) Speed Deadlifts (Monday)

Sunday and Monday both brought me awesome workouts! Sunday was bench day and Monday was deadlift day. Here is what the plan looked like for the two:

Bench Day:
Incline: 1x6@80%
Incline DB: 2x15 (used heavier weights than I ever have!!!)
Close Grip Bench: 3x12
supersetted with
DB Rows: 4x8
Band Flys: 3x15
supersetted with
Tricep Band Pressdowns: 4x25
DB Shoulder Press: 3x12
superestted with
Band Pull Aparts: 4x20
Abs
Conditioning

My conditioning Sunday consisted of tire flips and it was tons of fun! It left my forearms pretty sore and my quads a little tender as well. After the workout I did extra stretching than usual and spent the rest of the day enjoy the beautiful sunshine!

Deadlift Day
Speed Deadlift (with bands): 6x2@65%
Snatch Grip Deadlift: 3x12
Olympic Stance Squats: 3x8 (Put a huge emphasis on depth)
RDL: 3x8
Shrugs: 3x12
Back Extension: 2x25
Abs
Conditioning

My deadlifts felt so light today! I went well over 65% and the bar was still moving very quickly! My olympic stance squats are improving a good amount as are my snatch grip deads. I will say this: I've been working out in tank tops recently and my traps are growing quicker than anything; I almost had to do a double take (haha). Today is a rest day but I'm going to do lots of stretching and foam rolling between clients because I'm pretty sore.

On another note, I am very happy to announce that this week I will be starting as a part time intern for Nunn's Performance Training in Indianapolis. I will continue to work my other two jobs while putting in about 10 hours a week there. I'm so excited to work with athletes and expand my knowledge on training! I'm so thankful for this opportunity and can't wait to see where it leads.

Have a blessed day, everyone!
