Week #60, Huge, 1/14/16, Status Update

Verse of the day: The reward of humility and the fear of The Lord are riches, honor and life. -Prov. 22:4

I've been very busy with family and work, so I haven't posted a whole lot. But I'm on point. Every workout has been as planned:
Monday, I killed the chest and shoulders with all the favorites- dumbbell presses, hammer strength presses, cable flys, laterals and face pulls.
Tuesday was an excellent arm pump with barbell, dumbbell and preacher curls; along with cable, rope and dumbbell triceps work.
Yesterday I destroyed the legs with squats, presses, lunges, curls, and calf raises.
And tomorow I will finish it off with back...

Week #59, HUGE, Mon., 1/04/16, Chest and Shoulders

Verse of the day: O my Strength, I watch for You; You, O God, are my fortress, my loving God. -Ps. 59:9

Well, this is the 1st workout of the year. I took off the 1st 3 days to rest and spend time with family. I got in a killer workout this morning. My focus has pretty much the same: volume fairly low, intensity high, very focused on stimulating muscle growth. Here it is:

4 feel sets and 1 failure set incline dumbbell press
1 failure set flat dumbbell press
1 feel set and 1 failure set incline Hammer press
1 feel set and 1 failure set cable fly
1 feel set and 1 failure set Hammer shoulder press
2 hard sets incline rear lateral raise
1 failure set seated lateral raise

...Just right to start off a new year
