Todays workout. Aatz!
I had a good workout today. The other day I was feeling pretty tired in the morning so I popped a Hydroxycut Hardcore before my workout to help wake myself up. Typically I don’t have coffee or any caffeine in the morning to get me going…which after a long week of not sleeping enough, can really take its toll on my wakefulness for a workout! I was pleased with the kick it gave me in my workout and so I decided to try it again this workout. I’ve never tried NOxplode or any pre-workout drink other than BCAA’s but I think I might get some of this hydroxycut stuff and start taking one before every workout. I felt awake, energized and ready to go!
Todays workout posted a few PR’s. I’m in a high weight phase, not so much worrying about how many reps completed as long as I can get around 3-6. I’m only doing 3 sets so if I get 3 reps, then I decided whether or not to do another set to keep the volume a little more even. Nevertheless here’s what I did today.
Incline DB Press - 100lbs DB’s! 6/6/4. Rockin, reached my goal and new PR!
Chin-ups - BW (188) + 40lbs! 6/6/6. Too easy, PR but next week going +50lbs!
Skullcrushers - 90lbs 6/6/5. Form issues on second set but nailed the 3rd, PR!
BB Curls - 90lbs 6/4 drop set 85lbs 6, assisted on last rep. PR!
Arnold presses - 40/45/50 6/6/5. Searching for a good weight.
DB Shrugs - 70/70/60 6/6/6. Not very taxing but my grip could not hold anymore…
If you’re curious I’m in phase 2 of tri-phase workout. Basically an A,B upper and lower body split. 4 days a week - Upper A, Lower A, Upper B, Lower B.

Nice work on the dumbell incline press and the pullups. Your racking some good numbers. For shrugs I use straps so that I can really hit my traps without loosing my grip. I do this for back to, I find I can do an extra 20 lbs or more with straps, this means more growth.
