Good arm day
Today’s workout almost didn’t happen. I woke up with a bad headache and felt crappy- out of the blue, cuz I felt fine last night. I didn’t want to skip my workout so I ate breakfast, had coffee then headed over to the gym. I still had the headache when I got there, but once I started running I felt ok, just kinda tired. I don’t know if this was the start of some virus or allergies, so I was a little worried about overdoing it and getting really sick.
I did an arm workout that really hit some spots I need to get better at working though, and that was awesome. I did some pushups before I lifted weights and that helped me to fatigue the muscles more. I did dumbell bench presses, lying tricep extension, incline dumbell press, cable shoulder pulls, closed grip barbell raises, dips (arms on a low bench) and tricep extensions intermittenly. Then I did some dumbell lateral raises, and chest presses. Most exercises I did 3X10, some I did a 4th set. I spent more time lifting instead of finishing with a run like I normally do. The headache was pounding and I didn’t feel like running or doing any kind of cardio : (
I made sure I did enough to exhaust the muscles, and I almost couldn’t feel my arms when I left the gym ~
