The View from the Classroom

Okay….the first pic below was on 3/19 and second one last night.  I’ve been working hard on the lats…well, really on the whole upper body.

  Would be interested in hearing some feedback…what’s good?  What needs work?…that kind of thing.       

Tried something new today…a giant set.  Went like this…squats 50lbs, leg press 90lbs, extensions 75lbs, seated ham curls 75lbs, hip adductor 70lbs, walking lunges w/10lb weights…20 reps on all except extensions.  Could only do 10-12 on that.  And 40 steps on the lunges.  No rest between exercises.  Rested 2-3 minutes and repeated for a total of 3 sets.  Then, did 3 sets of calf raises.

I didn’t think I would make it to the car.  My legs were on fire.  I should probably give myself credit for cardio too cause my heart was pumping.

It was GREAT!!!!!! 

No, I didn’t reach perfection, but I did bench 100 pounds tonight.  I did it on flat bench and decline, both personal bests thus far in my bodybuilding journey.

As a matter of fact, I felt really strong tonight.  Went heavier on almost everything.  I think it was the change to working everything (except legs) once per week. 

Just had to share my little triumph…
