Verse of the day: Isaac planted crops in that land and the same year reaped a hundredfold, because the LORD blessed him. -Gen. 26:12
I got in great workouts both yesterday and today. I have been very busy, with work and family, but the workouts are on point. My strength levels a slowly increasing, but I'm finding more how hard it is to stay light and get stronger. This time last year I was more that 10 pounds heavier than I am right now (about 180 now and up to 193 last year.) But, I will continue to push it.
I usually take one exercise per muscle group and focus on strengthening that motion for a while and then I may change it. For chest my focus is the incline dumbbell press. Man, these dumbbells are heavy- but they must move! Here's how it looked yesterday:
incline dumbbell press: 20s-25; 40s-8; 60s-6; 80s-6; 100s-6; 120s-5
flat dumbbell press: 110s-10
bent over cable fly for upper chest: 200-6
cable fly for lower chest: 155-9
incline machine press: 200-7+3
machine shoulder press: 90-15; 180-8; 270-4; 180-12
seated lateral: 25s-10; 30s-10; 40s-7
face pull: 100-20; 130-15; 160-15; 200-10
oct-bar shrug: 90-20; 140-12,12
Today for the little biceps workout I did 6 sets of straight bar curls, 2 sets of hammer curls and 2 sets of cable curls. It took about 20-25 minutes, taking my time- it was a good pump.
