Monday training that ironically occurred on Monday

Just finished a nice workout down in my "gym". You know, my parking area.

Said parking area gym ("PAG"? No? I'll work on that) is currently infested with lots of newborn mosquitos due to the rash of storms and it being spring in Texas. They're sooo cute with their whole blood sucking and disease spreading thing. It made rest periods infinitely more fun as I wasn't really paying attention to the little bastards while working on my exerciseseses. Anyway, today consisted of kettlebell swings and snatches, and afterward I felt so good I decided to get in some barbell rows, OH presses, and power clean progressions. 

Oh, and I only have two KBs: a 30lb and 53lb. Don't judge me. Off the top of my head it all went a little something like this:

• Dynamic warm-up
• 50 one arm swings (each) - 30lb KB .. this was mostly to get my hips firing 
• Kettlebell snatches - 3 x 15 @ 30lb, and 3 x 8 @ 53lb. 
• One arm rows - 2 x 25 @ 53lb kb, 3 x 8 @ 95lb barbell
• OH presses - 2 x 8 @ 95lbs
• Hang cleans - 2 x 8 @ 95lbs, 2 x 5 clean progressions @ 135lbs

I'm not the strongest guy ever. Please continue with that whole not judging me thing. The barbell stuff was mostly done with focus on form. I got a lot of that work in on Saturday so I kept it mild. I'll get my daily push-ups done later tonight when the lights are off along with my pants.

Criticism welcome, critique and suggestions preferred. 

Shirtless Saturday programming

Every shirtless Saturday needs to start off with some power food, lest everyone stare at your bare chest and proclaim "That man hath not the fuel to be powerful and has the aura of a Tinseltown ladyboy!" I'm not sure what that means, but these tacos were really good.

MEAT. EGGS. STUFF. Sure they were the most expensive tacos I've ever purchased in the history of my life, but I'd do it again right now if the line wasn't out the door. Oh, those are from Velvet Taco. Check out that lobster roll taco. Yeah. Will work for lobster roll tacos.

After my taco consumption I pounded a couple cups of coffee, rehydrated, and went downstairs to my parking space gym. It was extra wonderful today since the entire complex was seemingly doing laundry, and to my great fortune the dryer vents right into my area. There is no airflow other than that. Needless to say extra sweat begets extra chalk. And extra dudesexiness (not subjective or up for debate). 

* Dynamic warm-up

* Hang clean - 4 x 8, 8, 6, 6
* Clean and press - 4 x 8, 8, 6, 6
* Deadlift - 5 x 8, 6, 4, 2, 2
* Tire slams - 5 x 10 (sub band slams, rock slams, ball slams, baby slams, or whatever if no tire)
* Uphill tire shot put + downhill OH carry - 3 sets (shot put tire up the hill, carry OH down, no rest)

I live in Dallas so hills are hard to come by without traveling. I just use my driveway which is about 30 yards long with a decent climb. Hope you guys got at it as well. Tomorrow for Pantsless Sunday I'll get in a suspension workout at the park with the ladyfriend. Let's hope she has a positive mindset. Speaking of, I need to write about that soon because all of the f'ing negativity people hold towards themselves and their capabilities drives me bonkers. 

Stay hard.
