Squat (120 x 5), 145 x 4, 145 x 3
Bench Press 95 x 10, 95 x 6
Power Clean 90 x 3, 90 x 0
Holy friggin' wussies, Batman! In high school, I'd run a couple of miles, then come in and max out my squat at 285! Now, I can't push 145 up five times because I'm still sore from running two days ago? Oh, this can't stand. This is changing fast. I've spent so long trying to get ahead in the military's wussy standards that I've become a girlie man. This will be my New Years' Resolution: iron returns to my diet as of today.

1100 Strength Training (12 kg kettlebell)
2H Swing x 10
1H Swing x 10/Arm
1H Clean x 5/Arm x 2 sets
Get-Up x 3/Arm
1H Military Press x 5/arm x 2 sets
Deck Squats x 10
Front Squats x 5 x 2 sets
Felt good, but kicked my heinder. Especially the ones I wouldn't expect to--the Turkish Get-Ups and Deck Squats. Also, I find that my left wrist hurts more than my right wrist from the kettlebell laying on it, especially during military presses. Anyone have any advice?
I've made a towel pad for "towel-benches" next week. As expensive as towels are anymore, I probably would've saved money just ordering the foam one. Towel Benches are part of the Bigger, Faster, Stronger program. This is the same program (well, an updated version) that I followed my senior year in high school, which allowed me to win a statewide powerlifting competition after four months of training. I'm not expecting to see such dramatic results at nearly twice the age, but I really did enjoy lifting big heavy things.

0800 Concealed Carry Class!
And that's all that really needs to be said. I sure HOPE I PASS... :)
UPDATE: I shot the x-ring out of my target with my 9mm Beretta. You should've seen what I did with the .22 revolver--all I heard from the instructor was "that went through the same hole" five times...
Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to sleep between work and the class, and there certainly wasn't a chance between the class and work... It's gonna be a LONG night...

Technically, my 12-kg kettlebell marks me as a "wimp" among beginning kettlebell players. Of course, kettlebell training is not the only exercise which I do, as is recommended. Today, however, is the first time that I have really completed a kettlebell workout--and it felt GREAT.
Tomorrow I test for my concealed carry license!
