Upper Body


Worked out with fellow trainer Dave today, he was doing a high rep, triple set all for the same muscle group, day.  Some different stuff, but one of my weaknesses for sure.

Triple Set
Rotating Bench Press - 3x8...50s
Incline Flies - 45sx8, 50sx8, 6
Plate Squeeze - 10sx8, 8, 6

T-Bar Row - 115x10, 120x10, 8
Partner Assisted Row - 3x6
TRX Row  - 12, 10, 10

Incline Bench Press
R-Band Plate Pushups - 25x8(2), 6(2), 4(1)
Cable Flies - 12x8, 8, 5

Wide Pullups - 10, 7, 7
Lying Reverse Fly - 20sx8, 8, 8
Face Pull - forget weights, 3x8

Oh man, one of the more intense burns I have gotten.  Rotating was interesting, yeah kind of twist on the way down until your palms face upwards, bringing the dumbbells close to your hips, made the 50s feel heavy.  The plate squeeze, only with 10s, but burned a surprised amount.  The partner assisted row looked like a tug of war, one would pull, the other resisted, then reverse, it was a constant tension row and had such an intense burned I could hardly move my arms for the trx row.  The number in the brackets for the plate pushups was how many I got after Dave took the 25 lb plate off, not many, I was pretty done at this point.  Huge burn, but fun!
