  • The 100 Ton Week

    Written by Dameo on Monday, August 9th, 2010 ( Start discussion )

    I’ve been back on my workout kick for about 3 months now, and I think it’s time to push the limits.  With that in mind, this week I am setting a fitness goal to lift a cumulative weight of 100 tons (200,000 lbs).

    There are a couple of caveates to consider:

    1. Not counting any plyometric or abdominal exercises.
    2. For body-weight exercises I am only counting a percentage of my 240lbs
      • Push-ups: 200lbs
      • Pull/Chin-ups: 230lbs
      • Dips: 230lbs
    3. The goal is to complete this in 6 workouts not 7

    Below are the day 1 totals and exercises I completed

    Monday, August 9, 2010

    Weight Lifted:  27,075lbs

    Total Weight Lifted: 27,075lbs

    Exercises:

    Bench Press : 135×20, 225×6, 225×6, 225×6, 225×6, 135×20

    Pull-ups: 6,6,6,6,8,3

    Dead Lift: 185 x (10,15,10)

    DB Flat Bench Butterfly: 25lb each hand (50lbs) 10,15

    So I was a little short on day one, but it’s not a sprint.
