6/11 - Delts and more DOMS
What a weird workout. I was doing FacePulls for rear delts, and my previous PR was either 60 or 70 for 12 reps. Today, I just couldn’t rep out - I kept adding weight, and eventually had to put a 45 lb plate on my feet to stay grounded, but even then I feel like I could’ve gotten more in if I were a bit more stable.
It also was apparently cardio and abs day and I dodn’t get the memo, so I got stuck on a StairMaster, which is not the greatest for ass comfort the day after high volume hack squats. Brutal.

After a beautiful sunny day, there is a crazy thunder/lightning storm now. The cats are pissed and I really hope it passes so I don’t have to walk to the subway in this mess tomorrow.

eelo, so, I am a little new to some of these exercises. what is a face pull? looks heavy, is that like an upright row? and if so… you are pretty freaking strong! (an deven if it is not you are still real strong

Explanation of Face-Pulls:
Grab a high pulley with a rope attachment and pull to the face while keeping the elbows wide…really targets the rear delts.
And thanks - I’m getting stronger!
