  1. Feeling swole and sore. You can consider me a new swollen member as well.

    Strength
    Still playing with weights (gotta find out my 1RMs)
    3 warmup sets, 5 reps each @ 135
    5 working sets, 5 reps each @ 185
    Weighted Chin-ups- 5 sets of 5 @ 35
    Deadlift (i had to add them) worked up to 3 reps @ 425

    Conditioning ( ran out of time. going in to do today 4/20 plus recovery)
    5 rounds- 10 bent over two-dumbbell rows, 10 plyo pushups, 10 alternating dumbbell hammer curls, 25 wall jumps
    Prescribed rest: 30-60 seconds

  2. Strength

    3 warmup sets, 5 reps each @ 145
    1 working set, 5 reps @ 225
    4 working sets, 5 reps each @ 240, approx. 2 minutes rest between sets
    wasn’t sure if I had the strength to do all 5 sets at 240, so I counted 225 as 1st set due to time constraints.
    Weighted Chin-ups- 5 sets of 5 @ 25, approx. 2 minutes rest between sets

    Conditioning
    5 rounds- 10 bent over two-dumbbell rows (30 lbs.), 10 plyo pushups(middle hand lands on 45 lb. plate), 10 alternating dumbbell hammer curls (25 lbs.) , 25 wall jumps (scaled to 10 each round due to time)

    10-15 seconds rest between rounds

    Prescribed rest: 30-60 seconds

  3. Strength: 5 working sets of 5 reps @ 185, 3-4:00 b/w sets. Felt pretty easy.
    Conditioning: as rx’d. 30lbs for rows and curls. did clapping pushups. 7:02 total time, includes :30 rest b/w rounds.

    First swolefit workout. felt pretty good man.
