Put Your Whites Away, It's After Labor Day

I always think of the John Waters movie, Serial Mom, when I hear people talking about not wearing white after Labor Day. Funny scene, funny movie. But seriously, where did the summer go?? It when crazy fast this year. In about a month, Christmas stuff will start popping up. Oh jeez.

Last week I gave my body a break. I only worked out or ran four days. I so lazy, but it's not a bad thing to rest your body every now and again. I started this week on Monday with strength training with Zim. Here was the routine:

1)Barbell chest press (5 sets, 5 reps)
a)50lb-5 b)60-5 c)65-5 d)70-5 e)75-3

2)Dumbell chest press (3 sets, 12-20 reps)
a)15lb-15 b)18-15 c)21-20

3)Bent over barbell row and Shrugs/clean and up (3 sets, barbell 8-12 rep, shrug 10-15 reps)
a)65lb-10 and 12lb-10 b)70-10 and 12-12 c)70-10 and 12-12

4)Behind the back barbell shrugs (3 sets of 12-15)
a)45lb-12 b)50-12 c)55-12

5)Curls (3 sets of max reps)
a)15lb-15 b)18lb-12 c)21lb-10

Run a 3/4 mile.

Done!

Today I did a light leg workout with my dad. Then I went for a 6 mile trail run in a little over 53 minutes. It was a BEAUTIFUL afternoon out! I put on my headphones, stretched out and enjoyed the scenery on the trail. And barely a soul around. Came across maybe 4 or 5 people. Not sure what I'm going to do tomorrow. It's going to be a busy day at work.

Happy running!
