Work Day (Recovery) Gym Session 15/04/2008

Work Day (Recovery) Gym Session 15/04/2008

It was raining pretty heavily today and it was also my first day back to gym after one week hiatus with a somewhat good rest. As per usual, I forgot my umbrella but somehow or rather it rains. Damn, it is always like that, seldom rains when I actually brought my umbrella, this kinda suck.

*Please note that I have not taken any Creatine and will not for this whole month in order to cycle the Creatine out of my system. I will recommenced in taking the Creatine on May 2008.

Anyway I arrived in the gym at 6:30 pm and left the gym at 9:15 pm.
Total time spent = 2 hours 45 mins

My workout routine for the day are as follows:

5 mins on the rowing machine @ effort level = 10

Benchpress:
(1x1 1x2 1x3 1x4 1x5 1x6) @ 50kg
(1x1 1x2 1x3 1x4 1x5 1x6) @ 60kg
1x10 @ 70kg

Pullover:
3x15 @30kg

Inclined legpress:
1x15 @150kg
2x15 @180kg

Woodchopper:
1x (2x15) @ 12kg per arm, total = 24kg
1x (2x15) @ 14kg per arm, total = 28kg
1x (2x15) @ 15kg per arm, total = 30kg

Dumbbell bicep curls:
1x (2x15) @ 14kg per arm, total = 28kg
1x (2x15) @ 16kg per arm, total = 32kg
1x (2x15) @ 18kg per arm, total = 36kg

Tricep overhead extension:
3x15 @30kg

30 mins on stepper @ effort level = 12
1 min on stepper @ effort level = 10
* Resulted in 380 calories burned and 189 floors climbed

30 mins on treadmill @ 7.0 kmph, gradient = 5%
1 min on treadmill @ 5.0 kmph, gradient = 2.5%
* Resulted in 290 calories burned and 3.4 km walked

Total calories burned = 670 calories

All in all, I think I have lost some significant strength without taking Creatine and from illness. Hopefully will regain my strength the coming weeks.

Cheers
