Yesterday's Workout

...and I'm all caught up!

Yesterday, I did low intensity cardio in the evening hours after my workout. (2 of 3)

I've been feeling tired as of late and a little bit under the weather but may be a function of the celebratory birthday weekend.

I didn't quite feel as strong yesterday but managed to push through no matter how lethargic I was feeling.

This past Sunday's workout

No cardio this day as I met my cardio requirements for the week.

Like last time, I was working out coming off a day off, however, I didn't quite feel like I had as much energy as I'd like. At any rate, I went heavier with each successive set with the close grip lat pulldown.

For the bent row, I led off heavier but remained at the weight for the remaining working sets. Finally, I went lighter with the bench row, straight arm pulldown superset.

Also, stayed at the same weight throughout for the stiff legged deadlifts.

Last Friday's Workout

I did high intensity cardio AFTER my workout. (3 of 3)

I led off heavier with the slight incline presses and finished (for the last two working sets) at the heaviest I lifted last time as I was just barely meeting the low end of the rep range. I had to rest/pause during my last set just to get the 6th rep in.

For the incline DB press, I led off slightly lighter to get in more overall reps and it was good for 1 more than last time.

The rest of the workouts' numbers remain the same.

Today's Workout

Yesterday, on a day off, I did low intensity cardio in the morning (3 of 3) and I did high intensity cardio later at night. (2 of 3)

Trained at a different gym today. As such, exercises such as the leg press felt differently. The sled here felt a tad heavier and with weight, felt alot more heavier than the leg press machine I was using previously.

At any rate, I led off and finished slightly lighter with the leg press and finally, went heavier on my final working set with the squats.

This past Saturday's Workout

No cardio as I had met my requirements for the week.

Made more gains with the slight incline barbell press as I lifted more weight with each successive working set.

I led off lighter with the incline dumbbbell presses as I failed to hit my rep targets previously. I hit the low end of the rep range and remained at the weight used. For the final working set, however, I failed one rep shy of the low end of the range and dropped.

Finally, went heavier with the flyes.

Great saturday morning workout.

Stand alone workout with no cardio following the workout or hours before as I met my cardio requirements for the week already.

Numbers remain the same with the exception of the barbell lunge. Increased weight again here. Noticing more and more how less winded I am after doing these. It used to be a cardiovascular challenge. Not that it isn't now....just not sucking wind like before.

Today's Workouts

Yesterday, on a day off, I did high intensity cardio. (2 of 3) I also did low intensity cardio yesterday but earlier on in the day. (2 of 3)

Today I did low intensity cardio AFTER my workout. (3 of 3)

Always look forward to the first workout back after a day off. And back is one of my favorite parts to train.

Went heavier with the close grip pulldowns and half of my superset of the bench row/straight arm pulldown. Finally, went heavier with the stiff deads and the heavy leg curls.

feel great!

B-2-Chest and Triceps (1)

Today's Workout

I did low intensity cardio AFTER my workout. (1 of 3) Later in the evening, I did High Intensity cardio. (1 of 3)

When I did this workout previously, I did the slight incline barbell press on a smith. I moved over to a squat rack and did the slight incline barbell press there. Led off lighter than I normally would considering...and throughout, I selected weight conservatively. I definitely felt I could have worked up to more weight, for sure. Next time.

Led off heavier with the Incline dumbbell presses but failed to hit my rep target by 1 rep. So I finished with a lighter weight and hit the lower end of my rep target.

Went heavier with the flat flyes.

Numbers remain the same for the triceps portion of the workout.

Today's Workout

Stand alone workout with no cardio following the workout or hours before.

First workout back from a day of rest and a new wave of workouts.

Checked back to the last time I did this workout in March. Numbers with the squat and leg press remain the same but I increased weight with the barbell lunge. (not as winded doing these now like previously) and the leg extension.

Great workout.

A-4-Delts and Biceps (4)

This past Friday's workout...

I did low intensity cardio (3 of 3) AFTER my workout on Friday.

As my numbers from last workout as a guide, I picked my spots as to where I can lift heavier than previously.

With the high incline presses, I failed to kick up the weight at 100 lbs. for my last working set. I attempted but couldn't start my set. I immediately dropped and proceeded with 90 lbs. and dropped again at 80 lbs.

Numbers remain the same the rest of the way. Save for a few sets with the bicep exercises.
