In other news, training for the Arnold Pump and Run continues
Two weeks until the big event – the Arnold Pump and Run here in Columbus, Ohio. For me, that means two more weeks to get some decent running in and one more hard bench press workout. Hopefully, I can avoid the ultimate workout destroyer (snow shoveling) and do my pyramid bench workout one more time:
8-200
6-220
4-240
3-260
2-270
1-280
4-240
From there the trick is to bench press 175 as many times as possible. 20 or more is my goal. I hope to run the 5k in close to 19 minutes. I ran 4 miles today in 30 minutes. I’ll need to run Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday for the rest of the week.
