Past Few Days
I have neglected to keep my BodyBlogs up to date, so today I will outline my last three workouts (Wed: Legs, Thurs: Shoulders, Fri: Back + Biceps) I didn’t have my usual tuesday arm workout this week, as I had other plans that day, however, I didn’t mind since my triceps were still sore from mondays chest workout, plus I just added biceps at the end of my back workout.
Wednesday, I went to the gym fully knowing I was in for a beating. After taking a week off, returning for a leg day is always a recipe for pain for a few days. Plus, my leg focus was getting changed, which just made things hurt even more. First, my squat stance was widened to more of that of a powerlifters squat; wider stance, toes slightly outward, focus more on inner thighs. Same went for the leg press. Calves were changed to a superset of heavy standing calf raises and light seated calf raises. Then followed by leg curls and leg extensions.
Thursday, shoulder day, was a good day, despite being barely able to walk. I followed my plan to focus on the middle delt to make my shoulders wider and stronger. Plus, I seemed to have more strength, so I was able to lift more.
Friday, I had a great back day, ending with a crazy pump. I went back to doing wide grip pullups (which it’s been a while since I’ve done them) after doing two light sets of pulldowns. Next, I did two sets of heavy reverse grip barbell rows, followed by normal overhand barbell rows. Of course I did my big barbell shrugs after that
Followed by wide straight-arm pulldowns. Proceeded to do barbell curls, and finished with what I call jump-n-holds (where I basically do a jumping chinup where i try to hold for as long as possible)
