I was hoping to be posting this new post on my new blog.
But I still have a few little kinks to workout.
Once I get everything running smoothly I will be moving to my new Dad Fitness blog at: www.DadFitnessBlog.com
The web address is a lot easier to remember and everything is redesigned so you can follow the Dad Fitness Lifestyle in a cool new format. In the meantime you can still check out the new blog as I have some of my older posts already moved over.
Once again, its DadFitnessBlog.com
Anyway, as for my weekend workouts.
After working 2 twelve hour nightshifts on Thursday and Friday I got up Friday morning after only 4 hours sleep and headed to the gym.
Despite the initial struggle of getting up after such little sleep I do this on purpose as I know I always feel better after my Dad Fitness workout.
So this is what I did for my Friday workout.
3 sets each, 5-10 reps.
Sumo Deadlifts
Bent Over BB Rows
Cable Pullthroughs
Cable Woodchops
Saturday night was date night with my wife and we crossed the nearby border to Quebec, the land of the best poutine and smoked meat. The french really go all out as we opted for a well known pub that serves an amazing pizza topped with smoked meat.
..and if that's not fattening enough for you they even give you butter to spread on the crust! It's a good thing I don't live in Quebec...
After that we came home to relax while Matea stayed at Nanny and Poppy's for the night and we cheered on my Pittsburgh Penguins as they faced off in the first game of the stanley cup finals to the Detriot Red Wings.
Unfortuantley they lost 3-1 to thanks to some lucky bounces from Detriots home rink!
Then for my Sunday morning workout it was Upper body day 2.
Seated DB Shoulder Press
Pullups
Reverse Curls
Elbow Out DB Rows
2 rounds of DB swings for 60 secs with 60 secs rest.
the rest was 3 sets each, 5-10 reps
After that we picked up Matea and took her to the playground for the afternoon.
I am finishing the evening off by barbecuing my famous Dad Fitness Perfect Burgers and curling up with my family to watch game 2 of the stanley cup finals.
(I am Canadian after all, eh!)
GO PENS!
Who are you cheering for in the Stanley Cup Finals?
