Monday’s workout was great
I still hit triceps and shoulders on monday. But I completely changed up the order of my exercises. I still started with some high rep cable push-downs to warm-up my elbows. But then I went right into lateral raises, rear delt raises, and front raises. Next up was dips superset with more cable push-downs. I started with no weight on the dips and worked my way up to 90 pounds (2 45 pound plates hanging from the belt). Then it was time for close grip bench press. After that I hit up skull crushers. I then went back to shoulders by hitting up some seated, dumbell shoulder presses. I finished up with some seated barbell shoulder presses using the smith machine.
Yesterday was legs. I started out with front squats instead of normal squats. I fel pretty strong and worked my way up to 225 pounds - which for me is a lot (for front squats). I then did traditional squats and was still able to work up to 405 for 3 good reps. Then I hit lunges, leg press, and finished with leg extensions. My legs were tired last night… but they seem fine this morning. No soreness yet. I am about due for my dreaded giant set workout… Maybe next week.
Today is back and biceps. I will probably try to get there a little before my partner - so I can get my deadlifts in. (He refuses to deadlift!) However, I want to really focus on my biceps today. See you at the gym!
