Josh Norman? Really? And the Workout

The Washington Redskins signed CB Josh Norman today for five years and $75 million?! Now, I will be the first to admit that the 'Skins need some help in the defensive back field and Norman is a very talented player. There are a couple of concerns for me: 1) The 'Skins have a terrible history of signing very expensive free agents that turn out to be busts (i.e. the list could go on for pages but I will narrow it to two words: Albert. Haynesworth.) 2) The 'Skins finally have a locker room that is settled and now they add this guy? I hope that Scot McCloughan knows what the hell he is doing!

Warm-Up: Perform each exercise in order for one minute each to complete a set. Two sets total, no rest between sets.
Jump Rope
Hanging Knee to Chest
PVC Wraparound
PVC Passthrough
Weight Training:
Barbell Ground to Overhead, 5 sets of 4-6 repetitions
Triceps Cable Push Down, 3 sets of 8-10 repetitions
Barbell Shrug, 5 sets of 6-10 repetitions
Medicine Ball Push-Up, 5 sets of 20 repetitions
Seated Dumbbell Side Raise, 5 sets of 8-10 repetitions
Axle Bar Skull Crusher, 3 sets of 8-10 repetitions

Have a Great Day!!

Husky Ridiculousness and the Workout

I have been watching the Men's NCAA tournament and the games have been unbelievably close. A game between say a number one seeded team versus a number five seeded team have been going down to the wire... often times with a buzzer beating basket. Then there is the Women's NCAA Tournament. I just dropped in on the UCONN Huskies versus the Mississippi State Bulldogs. Now a real bulldog may put up a good fight against a real husky.... but this basketball game got out of hand quickly.... 61-12 at the half?!

Warm-Up: Perform each exercise in order for one minute each to complete a set. Two sets total. No rest between sets.
Jump Rope
PVC Wraparound
PVC Passthrough
Weight Training:
Barbell Push Press, 5 sets of 1-5 repetitions
Triceps Push-Down, 3 sets of 8-10 repetitions
Barbell Shoulder Shrug, 3 sets of 10 repetitions
Axle Bar Skull Crusher, 3 sets of 8-10 repetitions
Super Set: Perform each exercise in order to complete a set. Three sets total. No rest between each exercise.
Dumbbell Side Raise, 15 repetitions
