Slow and Steady - Week 2
Okay…so I was pleased with myself that I didn’t lose all of my progress I had made last week. I got down to 221ish but then it was my birthday and halloween (cakes, candy, parties), and I was able to maintain and only gained 1.5 pounds. However…as of this morning…that all appears to have been bloated water weight because I am 220.4!!!! I am pumped! It is so nice to be back in the gym, to sleep well at night, have energy, not be hungry all the time, and losing weight!
Oh…and I measured my biceps this morning and they are at 15.9"….I am almost to 16….here they come. I think I would be happy with 16.5" arms…so that is the ultimate long term goal. Short term…focus on 16.
As for my workout yesterday. It was a good workout…got a good sweat and pump going on…and as usual, since it was shoulders and biceps…I couldn’t reach my back in the shower. I love it!
Rear Delt Flies: 70×10, 50×12(x2), 70×10 (this burned good at the end)
Alternating Dumbell Curls: 20×8(x2), 15×10(x2) I think I am going to up this next week.
Seated Dumbell Lateral Raises: 12×12(x3) good burn…keep it one more week at least
Bent Over Crooked Bar curls: 30×15, 40×10(x3)
Arnold Presses: 12×10, 15×8(x2), 12×12
Hammer Curls: 10×12, 15×10(x2), 20×8
Bar Shrugs: 80×10, 60×12, 80×10(x2)
One Arm Preacher Curls: 15×12, 20×10, 10×15
