Kaine and Pence.... and the Workout

I know that these two guys are politically polar opposites.... Folks don't get any more conservative than Mike Pence and Tim Kaine is a true, blue Democrat. There are a couple of things that they have in common.... both seem very polite, considerate and level-headed. I also feel really sorry for both of them: They are both on tickets with the most unpopular Presidential candidates of all time. I hope that they both have snorkels so that they can breathe as they are dragged through the mud between now and November!

Warm-Up:
Steady Pace Cardio, 20 minutes
Weight Training:
Strict Overhead Barbell Press, 5 sets of 4-6 repetitions
Barbell Shrug, 5 sets of 4-8 repetitions
Axle Bar Skull Crusher, 5 sets of 8-12 repetitions
Front Plate Raise, 5 sets of 15 repetitions
Triceps Cable Push-Down, 5 sets of 8-12 repetitions
Cable Side Raise, 5 sets of 8-12 repetitions per side
Triceps Dip Machine, 5 sets of 8-10 repetitions
Cable High to Low Wood Chopper, 3 sets of 15 repetitions per side

Have a Great Day!!

Two Day Post and the Workout of the Day

Yesterday ended up being a rest day from all forms of exercise. The break was much needed after three heavy lifting days in a row on top of three very early morning wake ups. The day off also allowed me to pick up a beautiful Rogue Ohio Bar I spotted on Craigslist for $200. That thing is bad ass. We went and had dinner with friends and then slept in this morning. Back at it today with a great heavy workout!

Warm-Up: Perform each exercise in order for minute each to complete a set. Three sets total. No rest between sets.
Heavy Rope whip
AbMat Sit-Up

Weight Training:
Barbell Clean and Jerk, 5 sets of 5 repetitions
