Totally Addicted for Life

Since I took yesterday off from resistance training I was bound and determined to have a great morning in the gym.   Ate good yesterday, around 3500 calories of low fat, high protein, with a touch more carbs then normal.  Made sure to drink some Muscle Milk lite before I went to bed.

I got my normal six hours sleep and woke up refreshed.  Drank my two cups of double strength coffee and headed into the gym.  

Quick warm up on the bike.

Warm-up with seated full twist curls I saw Larry Scott demonstrating in one of his videos on BB.COM  Started with 15lbs, 25lbs, 35lbs, then 45lbs at 15 reps.  Felt pumped up and ready to go heavy.

Started with quarter DB curls on the preacher bench.  I do  these one arm at a time.  There is a picture of me doing these in on my bodyspace.  These target the upper bicep.  For the heavier sets I rest until the burn is about gone.  Takes about 90 seconds.

15×65lbs
12×75
12×85
10×95
10×105
8×105
12×85

Next is the the hanging curls with the EZ curl bar.  I hang over the back of the preacher bench so my arms hang free and loose.  I use a wide grip.  I Start fully extended and go up about two thirds and squeeze the bicep.  Rest about 60 seconds.

10 x 65
10 x75
8 x75
7×65

Last sets focus on mid biceps and outer biceps.  I use a rope on the cable machine with the pully down at the bottom of the rail.  I try to turn my hands out at the top but can only do so at lighter weights.

10×100
10×140
8×160
6×190, 6×160, 8×140 (superset)

and..  my arms can hardly move.  Fully engorged with blood.  I love that feeling!

On biceps day I need to shave BEFORE I go to the gym.  Damn it was hard to shave this morning!
