Iron Martini: Christine Friday

Saturday, October 4, 2008

DL - 160x6, 180x4, 200x2, 215x1, 225x1 (Fail)

215 flew up so we tried 225, just couldn't lock it out

Band assisted chinups 2x3

Knee raises 3x10

Melanie said...: This is fantastic - particularly when you look back over recent posts and see how rapidly really you've moved up to this weight - 215 is easy and 225 is close. Awesome (and inspiring). I bet you'll be able to do the farmer's walk with the implements next time with the big boys.; October 7, 2008 at 9:54 AM
