ok i slept in today (bad start) so i went to the night practice.

i get there about 6 P.M. and we break into to groups. ones doing running and ones weight lifting. i go into running first.

we start by stretching, then we do the speed ladder, then we do jumping over tackling bags for agility and getting our vertical up.after that we do the speed sleed. where u put 35 pounds weights on a heavy sled and run with it tied behind ur back and u have to drag it.after that we run 10 40 yard dashes and 10 20 yard sprints. after that we just run routes with the quarterback and catch the ball.

we went into the weight room and my energy is drained so my performance in the weight room suffers

miltary presses- 65*10. 75*10. 85*10. im not real good at this but i pumped thes out good till the last 3 at the end but i still got them

shrugs- i just used 45 pound weights and did 3*10 got a good workout with these

leg extensions 100*10. 100*10. 110*10. not too hard but still challeging

bench- big 45s- well by this time my energy is spent and im gettin more exhausted. the big 45 is where u gotta do it 45 time and he said pick 67% of ur max. well my max is 155 so i guess and picked like 100. so i do that like 15 and im really starting to struggle. im so spent and shyt idk if i can do this. well next time i do 14 more and time after that i do all 16. you can do it in up to three sets if u need to. very hard for me

box squats- 145*10 165*10 185*10 i wasnt feelin really up to it today when i started even tho it was one of my best exercises. ive done 245 ten times but i guess i took it easy today. :/. but i still got a good pump.

power cleans- 99*3 109*3 119*3 my worst exercise by far. but i did it better than i thought so it wasnt so bad.

glute hams 2*5 these were pretty hard for me but as my last exercise it pumped me up for what was a dissapointing day for me.

not too bad but dissapointed. had some good moments but far to many bad. this is worse i been in a while. i feel if i didnt run all that before hand i would have done better but tommrow i should improve and thats all i can hope for rite?im going to the morning one tommrow so hopefully ill post it by 12. thanx for ur comments.
