300 Workout #3

Today was the set date for the 3rd 300 workout (of 10 workouts each 10 days apart). This was the first one that involved weights so it put a lot more strain than normal on the body. You gotta love these workouts - 300 reps straight with little or no rest. What a pump up - im feeling great!

I finished this about 10 minutes ago, and i am still shaking. Todays workout was the following:

Bench Press @ 38.6kg
Dumbell Squat @ 20kg
Barbell Row @ 22.6kg
Barbell Deadlift @38.6kg
Military Press@ 22.6kg
Dumbell Swing @10kg
45 Degree Lat Pull-down @ Blue Band
1 Arm Dumbell Snatch (15 each side) @10kg
Elevated Push-ups

30 reps of each exercise, continuously. You may think 'pfffft those are light weights!' but my god, you lift it for 30 reps and smile then.

This is Week 6 of the 16 week challenge. I was planning to do the first workout today as well but it is my brothers birthday so i have only had time for the 300. I am being dragged to the gym tomorrow for another sort of 'male competition' with some old school friends.

Went last week with a guy called Leigh and it was a 'who can lift the most' competition. He won on the legs (but i did run to work that morning) and i won on all the upper body stuff. Tomorrow there will be me, Leigh, Kester (another school mate) and a guy called Rob. Should still win but its going to be tough after the workout today.

Well its 11pm here, i am hoping to run to work again tomorrow so im off to bed.

Night.
