Vocatus's Journal, 27 February 2019

Down 2 pounds sometime between weighing in on Thursday and again on Tuesday.

Monday weights:

Chest press @ 180 pounds: 5 reps warm up, one minute rest
@ 230 pounds: 3 sets of 2, with 3 minute rests in between
High Row @ 340 pounds: 3 sets of 3 with 3 minute rests in between.
Took a break, then set up the chest press, incline press, and decline press with 180 pounds and the high row with 270 pounds. I did five reps on each, in that order, so 20 reps before a rest. Did this three times with three minute rests.

Total weight lifted (all weights x reps): 20,190 pounds in two hours :)

Tuesday running: I walked for a few minutes to warm up, then ran 9 minutes, walked one minute, ran 10 minutes, then walked 1 minute and ran another 9. I didn't do much of the upper body stuff that the rest of the Couch to 5k class did because I didn't want it to affect my lifts today (headed that way in about half an hour). I did ten pushups and 20 squats though. Once I'm up to 30 or 40 squats again, I'll reintroduce lunges :)
285.0 lb Lost so far: 71.0 lb.    Still to go: 35.0 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.

Thanks man! I only got one hour in the gym today (I have to grab the kids and go once Child Watch is ready to leave at noon, and I didn't get there until almost 11) I moved off the Hammer Strength machine and onto the bench press bar. I found that even including the bar weight (45 pounds, I assume) I'm a little lighter than on the machine. I guess it's because my body has to stabilize the weight rather than having the machine do it for me? Anywho, 140 pounds in plates, 185 if you count bar weight. Anywho, got a journal entry coming for that one :)

ah, good info to have, thanks man! But here's question (which I asked in my journal entry for today's weights): When someone asks what I bench, would I say 185 -- which is the total weight, or just give the plate weight (140)? I'm not sure when people talk about their bench weights if they're including the bar in their numbers or if they're ignoring the bar and since a standard bar weighs the same from one gym to another (unless you have the heavy duty 55# bar, I guess).
