Great chest workout + Farewell Big Ron
Before I get into my description of my chest routine, I’d like to congradulate my idol Ronnie Coleman on his Mr. Olympia performance. Even though I was cheering him on from home, hoping he’d be blessed with a 9th Mr. O title, I was amazed with how he performed and how he said farewell to the Olympia stage with such grace and dignity. I won’t really get into my reasons for me thinking Jay shouldn’t have won (Victor Martinez should have) but that’s how I feel. We’ll miss you Ronnie, you were the greatest to ever grace the sport of bodybuilding.
But on to my chest routine. A couple tweeks as usual: elliminated DB pullovers, included the chest press machine, and put my incline DB press/flye superset second in the routine. Since the inclines were now second in the routine, there was greater weight used, for a better feel. The chest press machine is good towards the end of the workout, as it doesn’t burn out my tris like the DB pullovers or dips do, so I have some energy left in my tris for tomorrows arm workout. And yeah, I did abs too today, where I took out hanging knee raises and put in weighted decline crunches and incline reverse crunches.
