Pull


Final day by Cory.

B1 Overhand barbell bent over row 4x6-8
B2 Neutral grip chins (bw or assisted or pull down) 4x10-12
B3 Supinated farmer carries 4x45s
C1 Reverse DB curl 4x12-15
C2 DB Curl 4x12-15
C3 Hammer Curl 4x12-15
*C1-C3 use same weight for all and don't put down DB until end of hammer curl
D 100 rep each side - single arm DB row or single arm machine row
E 100 rep barbell curl - 45lb for the bros, 25-30lb for the ladies. As few sets as possible

Program is over and thank god is it.  It was horrible, by the end I believe I was doing more harm than good as the volume was just too high, but I certainly did learn some cool techniques I can utilize in the future.

I am happy with how my bench press has been going, last time I did pause bench press I did 205 for 3 hard sets of 2, today I did 205 for 3 medium sets of 3, so more reps and it felt a bit easier.  The chains on the incline bench presses were interesting, each weighs 23 pounds, they are a cool device but will work best on deadlifts.

Upper Body



I don't think I'd normally be sore after that workout, 50 deadlifts at 115 may sound like a lot, but nothing I haven't done, maybe not in a while though.  But my erector spinae and quads are pretty sore, gladly lower back is fine.

Single Arm DB Row

5 Rounds for time
10 Pullups
20 Pushups
Time: 10:11

Alternate Sets
Overhead Tricep Extensions
Cable Curls
Don't remember weight on this pairing

I am happy with the bench press, that's two reps up from last time, and I was distracted as someone was trying to talk to me too.  I also really focus on strict form on the rows.  I liked the pullup/pushup thing, I've done it many times in the past, and while my fastest time is under 10 minutes that's fresh, last time I did it I did something almost identical to what i did today and was 20 seconds faster this time, nice!  Good upper workout, and while my back feels back to normal I was advised to take however long it took for the pain to disappear and double that for my actual healing time.  I think I'll listen this time, so one more weak of being careful.

Upper Body


Today didn't follow in my usual workout plan, I worked out with a friend who wanted to get into some weight training, so I did the same workout she did which was a simple upper body weight program.  No point in listing what I did.

Good workout today, the second exercise is new, you lean over a bench and hold the peak contraction as you do one arm at a time, burned the upper back pretty good.

Upper Pull


Back at it, spent almost all of last week in a boring add training thing for a third job, also partly thought a lighter week wouldn't hurt either.

DB Single Arm Row (rack supported)
75x5
85x5
90x5
95x5

Neutral Grip Pulldowns - 3x15.....100

Kipping Chinups - 12, 10, 9

Underhand Chest Supported Row - 3x12.....120

Higher reps other than the first one, and used more grips that would activate my biceps more, feels good to workout again.
