THURSDAY-ARMS
I am starting to look forward to Thursday and Friday. I love to work arms and legs. I got to the gym early this morning and ran into one of my old police buddies from back in the day. He and I used to be in the SWAT unit together and patrolled in the public housing unit for years. However, we never worked out together. He has been lifting for probably 20 years or so. He is huge! I, on the other hand, have been dormant for years and still have not taken the training wheels off the EZ bar yet. Anyway, we did not exactly workout together but it was good to be in the gym with him today. Maybe we can hook up more in the future.
I really put it to the ole arms today. I did my normal arm routine and then added a finishing touch on the end for good measure. Here is the normal routine:
EZ-bar preacher curls … 12/12/8/6
Incline DB curls … 10/10/10/8
Cross-body hammer curls … 12/12/8
Rope press downs … 12/12/8
Single-arm overhead extensions … 10/10/10
After this workout, I went to the cables and hooked up a short straight bar and did drop sets on two handed curls (15/12/10/8/6/F). By the end of the workout my arms were on fire. I love that feeling.
I then hit the ab machine and back extension for a few reps. Then, it was time to go to work. Legs get a workout tomorrow.
