Woke up before alarm at 6:08 and started the morning off with 100 burpees, a PR. A few brief rest pauses here and there.
After work:
515 x 8
405 x 15, 10
Ended the session at this point to train my client, then came back in the evening to do some split-squats with 110 lbs and use the reverse-hyper.
Great training day.
I'm really enjoying training my current client by the way. I realized I like this kind of gig if the trainee is enthusiastic about lifting. What turned me off from trying this out a decade ago was having to be a motivator to someone who's not that into it. That's why I would never be a good salesman. I really could not care less if you want something or not, I ain't gonna try to convince you.
A motivated learner is huge. It's awesome having someone on that side of the spectrum. Super rewarding. Saw your other post about the ABCs and other circuit work: it's absolutely rewarding. So much volume and intensity in a tight package.
ReplyDeleteTotally, I'm never going to bother with someone who doesn't want to be there again. And thanks for the misery you've introducted me with circuit training, I had a bias against it for the longest time without realizing what a fantastic way to train it is.
DeleteOh absolutely dude! Such a terrible way to get in some volume and conditoning.
