Critical Bench Results



Looking to improve your chest or bench by the summer? You still have time...

I just finished my “Critical Bench” program. Let me preface this by saying I have benched heavy in the past, @ 15 years ago, so there may be the argument that I may have muscle memory. I have not benched heavy since then, nor have I done any bench specialized programs in a while. My target after the 10 week program was 375 lbs which was 30lbs heavier then what I tested at prior to starting the program. Well I did it, for 5 reps, I then tried 405… I feel if I did not push 375 for the 5 reps, did 2 instead , I would have had it. {I will try again soon!!}
So I have to say “Critical Bench” works!
Now I will concentrate on “Kettlebell Meltdown” to burn fat, but I will continue throwing chest work in there, and also concentrating on improving my clean and press of the 105lb kettlebell ~~

I Was Bored....


The other day, Wednesday, I was bored at work and had @ 2 hours left of my 12 hour shift. I had been planning on working out at home, doing week 3 day 1 of Kettlebell Meltdown. Instead I decided to get the workout in here at work. Working in a powerplant gave me a few interesting options and here is what I did.
Deadlift ladders [4 sets 1-5, per side] with a spool piece @100lbs [shipping weight was over 100 but there was packing included.
I do have a 40lb bell at work so I was able to do most of the circuit potion with the exception of
the “farmer walk” so I used 2 large valves for that portion.
Even though I had the option of working out at home sometimes you just have to use your imagination to eliminate the excuses [no time, no gym, no equipment….etc] So don't be afraid to use your imagination!
