10 SEP: Feeling the sludge

My wife and I were in the middle of nowhere on the muddiest, fish-catching-est place on the Gulf of Mexico.  The fishing was PHENOMENAL!!!!!!  I caught about 8 red drum (AKA redfish), a dozen or so specked trout, some incidental fish like croaker and even a tiny sand shark.

But the thing about being in a place like were at (name withheld to protect my favorite spot), is that there isn't shit to eat.  The nearest grocery store is 30 miles away.  We brought sandwich stuff, but vegetables just weren't made for the cooler, so we went 3 days with sammiches, eggs, yogurt, and the occasional deep-fried fare of the local eateries.  Top that all off with the requisite post-fishing libations, and you have a recipe for rapid deconditioning and paltry training weights.

So a day after returning from the coast, I put up these shabby numbers:
  1. treadmill:  0.5 miles in 10 mins at 4 degree incline
  2. hanging knees to elbows: 3,4,5,2,3,5,2,3,5
  3. vertical superset:
    a. V-grip pulldown: 130 x 5; 145 x 5; 160 x 9
    b. Overhead press: 95 x 5; 105 x 5; 115 x 12
  4. horizontal superset:
    a. TRX inverted row:  BW x 6, 5, 5, 5
    b. Pushup:   BX  x 6, 6, 6, 6
  5. Machine bicep curl: 30 x 10; 40 x 10; 50 x 10; 60 x 5; 70 x 5; 80 x 5; 90 x 5; 100 x 7
    90 x 8; 80 x 9; 70 x 10; 60 x 11; 50 x 12
