Putting this here for later: Spine Stabilization: How Your Core Should Be Working. Lots of anatomical descriptions and a self-test for spinal stabilization. And have a partner article: How to Unlock Your Athletic Potential Through Good Posture.
My exercise program this week looks kind of nuts.
Overhead Squats (5x5) 25#
Power Snatch (5x5) 15# -> 45#
Front Squat (5x5) 55#
Power Clean/Push Jerk combo (5x5) 35# -> 55#
Super set of One-Arm dumbbell presses 5x10 each arm 10# each arm and T-Bar rows, 4x12 153 -> 25#
But when I did it last night it seemed really easy. Maybe the trainer bar I was using wasn't the standard 15#? Not sure. But I finished up feeling like I could have done more and this morning I feel like I didn't do a workout at all, so I'm thinking I'll up some of those weights on Thursday. Except for the front squat. I'm a little irked at that low front squat weight, but in light of my recent SI joint unhappiness I'm making my peace with it. Look at that Power Clean/Push Jerk number, though. My last set I'm doing five reps at fifty-five pounds. Just a few months ago, the max I could get over my head with one rep was sixty pounds. I'm repping at almost my former max. And I might rep at my former max this week! Boo-yah.
Thanks to
etcet, here is Tom Hiddleston on Top Gear. Some behind the scenes shots here. And of course a gif set. My baby is a really good driver. Who is surprised? Nobody is surprised.
Oh my god an electric pressure cooker. And oh my god, I can make bone broth in this thing? Sign. Me. The Fuck. Up. Seriously. I am putting this on my wishlist NOW.
I would look so fucking good in this top.
Then there's this.
And now I have an admissions committee meeting that's going to last most of the morning. Good times.
