Work Day Gym Session 18/05/2011

Work Day Gym Session 18/05/2011

I had to workout during lunch time to day as I do not have much time after work these days. I got into the gym about 12:45 pm and got out of the gym by 2:00 pm.

Total time spent in the gym = 1 hour 15 mins

My workout routine:

Deadlifts (with straps):
2x6 @ 60kg for warm-up and cool-down
1x6 @ 80kg
1x6 @ 90kg
2x2 @ 100kg
1x1 @ 100kg ( failed)
* I finally broke my personal record my deadlift at 95kg. Unfortunately, my form was quite out. I will need to get a proper lifting belt soon.

Standing overhead barbell press:
2x6 @ 20kg for warm-up and cool-down
1x6 @ 40kg
1x6 @ 45kg
1x6 @ 50kg
* Not a bad lift today, I managed to do 50kg, will try 55kg soon enough.

Plate raise:
2x10 @ 5kg for warm-up and cool-down
2x10 @ 10kg
1x10 @ 15kg

10 mins on the treadmill @ speed = 8.0 kmph and gradient = 0%
10 mins on the treadmill @ speed = 6.0 kmph and gradient = 0%
1 mins on the treadmill @ speed = 5.0kmph and gradien = 0% for cool-down
* Resulted in 2.2km jogged and walked, around 210 calories burned.

I am quite happy with today's gym session as I was able to finally break my personal record in deadlifting. I am looking forward to my next session where I'll try to squat 120kg.
