My boys from the area football teams are starting to put some great numbers up in the major lifts.
Notables this week are a 485 deadlift from Evan J, a 300 front squat and a 150 military from Matt P (155 pound bodyweight) Max P put up a 190 military press and Evan N and David K broke the 405 squat barrier.
Keep up the good work fellas.
Took some pics at the gym today. These show the speed necessary for Olympic lifts to take place with proper execution. I didn't have the sports setting on the camera turned on, but I think it makes the effect that much more dramatic
Also Mary B. working on her chin ups, and Ryan S. working the lower body triple extension with the dumbbell jump squats
Matt P. DB for Archbishop Alter High School's football team squatted 350 x 1 at a bodyweight of 154 this morning . Very nice job Matt!
As many of you know, I have a 5 year old child, Joe, who is a very active child. we were at the park today, and as an experiment I mimicked him around the playground for an hour. It was quite an eclectic workout. Adding variety and new challenges to your program with keep your metabolism guessing and therefore ramped up.
