    Is it really November already?

    So apparently I often fail to remember that I have a blog as I have not updated it since Hudson wasn’t even a month old.  Now he’s 7 months, ginormous, and about to be on the go.

    Here is his for Halloween:

    Dinosaur! Raaaawwwrrrr

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Other things that have happened:

    1. Lost 14 pounds (been back in the gym)
    2. Got a new roof (not exactly by choice)
    3. Hudson was baptized
    4. Ran a fall instructional program for the Wake Forest Wizards of Fusion Lacrosse
    Best of all I continue to have a wonderful family, amazing friends, and waking up every day.  Can’t really ask for much more.

    100 Ton Day 3

    So I highly expected that today would be a tough one.  After two days of pretty heavy lifting I expected to be sore and potentially not very productive.  However, I was surprised by my level of energy and overall performance, even if the number for the day is a little lower than needed.  I’m just a few tons behind at the halfway point!

    Wednesday, August 11, 2010

    Weight Lifted: 28300

    Total Weight Lifted: 90895 (~45.5 tons)

    Bench Press: 185×15, 225x(8,8,6), 255×5, 135×20

    Pull-Ups: 5,5,5

    Dead Lift: 225x(12,10,12)

    DB Rows: 50x(20,20,20,20)

    DB Front Raise 50x(10,10)

    DB Side Raise 20x(15,10)


    I also ran a couple of seniors through a trial workout for the off-season, just to give them a taste of what to expect.  They did pretty well, both finishing in under 13 minutes, but it should have been about a 9-10 minute workout really.

    Here’s what they did:

    15 pull-ups

    30 squat jumps

    25×95 Bench Press

    20×95 Floor Swipes

    20×95 Dead Lifts

    15×10 sit-up press

    25 push ups

    This new nike commercial with the tag line “break to build” is awesome. As the off-season begins to ramp up for next spring I can only hope to instill this sort of mentality in some of my kids. If I can than I think I will have taken a step towards becoming not only a successful, but a good head coach.
