Update

I started my clinical rotation in Cambridge, NE. It's a small town, but it has a gym. Here's how the first week I was here went down.

Monday
Press

Ended up with 315 overhead, then did some lighter bench.

Tuesday
Pull

Short band deadlift
I think it was 320 for 5 sets of 3

Wednesday
Throw

I just did line drills and some slow motion throws

Thursday
Throw

More of the same

Friday
Off

Saturday
Leave at 4:00 am for Wichita, write-up to follow


So that puts us at now. I'm really, really sore, and really, really tired. So today was a day to address those things.

Monday
Press

Bench
135 x10x2
225 x5
245 x5
280 x5
225 x10

Overhead
135 x10x4

Laying Tricep Ext
50 x10x3

DB Snatch
50 x10x3

Neck
70 x25x2

Not bad, I feel better after this workout. I knew it wouldn't be anything special, just something to get some blood moving. I may switch up my training week this summer. I might go Overhead on Monday, Deadlift on Tuesday, Throw on Wednesday and Thursday, Bench on Friday and Squat on Saturday. That may give me more time to recover throughout the week, plus two of my days will be at home where I have decent spotters and equipment. I will probably break the throwing days into light weight and braemer on one day, and heavy weight and open stone on the other. Not sure yet, we'll see how it plays out.

Good day, last day for a while at the steel jungle. I tried to make the best of it. I'll miss training there, but hopefully I can make good gains while I'm gone. My main focus will be getting more explosive and getting my DL back up to respectable levels.
