Yeah, about that whole "off" thing. Um ... I kind of, uh, er ... I "trained intuitively." And today, my intuition told me after I did some back stretches to work abs. Hard.
Cable rope crunches: 200lbs, 4 sets to failure (20-15-10-12)
Landmines: 35lb plate, 4 sets to failure (10-9-9-10)
Knee raises (on a captain's chair): 3 sets to failure (20, 15, 11)
Pull-down abs: 105lbs, 2 or 3 sets to failure (can't remember; failure = 9ish today).
I thought about doing some cardio after this; but I was feeling like I got punched in the stomach and might lose my White Flood, so I stopped. Felt good to get in there and tear up my gut. It always makes me smile, too, because I've got pretty strong abs compared to a lot of the mirror boys in my gym ... mine just takes the form of a keg rather than a 6-pack.
first time doing landmines today. That's a mean-assed exercise that really hits your obliques and gives your lats and even delts a nice stretch. It's definitely going to get a regular spot in my rotation.
Lift well today, Admiral and all!!!!!
