Proctor Lifting Day 6

 Today was a good old-fashioned rest day for me. I put a lot of strain on my body this week, and it was nice to sleep late, and just rest. I kept my meals pretty clean despite the abundance of unhealthy foods Proctor has on Saturdays. Anyways, I got a nice game of softball in with some of my friends and walked to the swinging bridge of a quick swim. It was good to mentally reset and get a good physical rest. Tomorrow I plan to work on agility and endurance with a treadmill circuit along with an ab workout. I also did some research on the nutrition front and have begun the process of creating my dietary plan and workout plans. I spent about an hour on each subject.

Hours: 2

Total Hours: 22

Note: *Water with protein powder for dinner*

Proctor Lifting Day 2

  Today started off with a good sign of progress and a testament to the hard work we put in as a group yesterday. I weighed in at 192 lbs this morning, down from 194 lbs yesterday. We started the day off with a nice clean breakfast. We had eggs, sausage, and hashbrowns making sure we had a 50% protein ratio on our plates along with 20% carbs, and we hit our 30% fat target with the eggs on our plates. Today was bench day, and I was pretty tired from yesterday, but we all got after it. I felt good through the first few sets and super-setted my bench press with dumbbell one-arm rows. I got to my highest set of 180 and hoped to accomplish five reps. Last week, I, unfortunately, got only 4. I did accomplish five reps and was pretty stoked about it, but more importantly, other guys were putting up impressive weight as well. Mitchell hit a 205lb bench press for two reps, and we immediately posted it on @proctor_lifting on Instagram. I finished out the workout with incline bench presses, s...

Proctor Lifting- Day 14

 This morning was another solid, lengthy lift for me that felt very good. Again, I took a lengthy amount of time for a dynamic and static stretching warmup. I have noticed when I take a very long time to warmup I feel less sore, and get better results in the gym. From now on, I hope to make this a key part of my lifting at home and wherever I end up. The workout went from 8-10:45 am and consisted of: 5 sets of barbell hang cleans (5 reps, 4 reps, 3 reps, 3 reps, 3 reps) 5 sets of bench presses (5 reps, 4 reps, 3 reps, 3 reps, 3 reps) 5 sets of 10 barbell good mornings (empty bar no weight) 5 sets of 6-8 high incline dumbbell bench presses 5 sets of 8 single leg Romanian dead lifts 5 sets of 8 cable face pulls Superman’s Ab work I burned 698 active calories and 915 total calories during this workout. In addition, I spent an additional two hours finishing my plan, presentation, and senior project paper. What a project and I’m excited that I finished it on a high note.  Hours:5 T...

Proctor Lifting Day 11

 Today was an odd day for the lifting crew, as the gym was opened an hour after our arrival. While this was not ideal for us, it gave me more time for a dynamic warmup and stretching. I didn't lift today as the muscles and body felt pretty fatigued as I destroyed my legs yesterday. Today was a focus on stamina and endurance. I hammered the bike for 1.5 hours then finished with 20 minutes on the treadmill and 20 minutes of an ab routine. The focus is to keep my cardio up to snuff in the offseason as it is easy to get attached to the lifting, eating, no cardio lifestyle. That lifestyle results in the addition of bodyweight and that is not my goal. My philosophy is to train hard, lift heavy, eat smartly, and keep my cardio up to snuff. There's nothing worse than as an athlete going for a jog and ending up winded and tired. That's why I always try to keep my cardio up to snuff. Bike Circuit: 10 rounds jog 10 resistance- 1 minute sprint 15 resistance- 1 minute 1 hour cooldown jo...
