Traditional Strength Training; Week8Session2; Tuesday 1:45PM-2:45PM (More increases; heavy iron)

Calves, Back

  • One Legged Calve Raise: 100 lbs x 26, 26, 15, 12; Then Two Leg Calf Raise with 100 lbs x 40 reps (no rest between sets….one leg to the other…boom-boom-boom. Pump? Oh yeah…..substantial gains)
  • Parallel Chins w/ Extra Weight: 22.5 lbs x 4+1F, 3+1F
  • {Super-Set}

  • Dumbbell Cross Bench Pullovers: 50 lbs x 20 (elbows felt so much better! Increased weight by 5 lbs and added reps. By this method, I used chins to pre-exhaust the lats.), 20 (still had a few left maybe. Breathing Excellent!!!)
  • 1 Arm Bent Dumbbell Rows for Middle Back: 100 lbs x 5, 5 (strong)

(Second Workout) Shruggs, Biceps

  • Dumbbell Shruggs: 115 lbs x 20, 20 (this was heavy….whew!)
  • Seated Incline Dumbbell Curls: 30 lbs x 12 (wow), 8, 7
  • Dumbbell Hammer Curls: 30 lbs x 8 (inclines pre-exhausted biceps)

Observations:

I ate a bit better today, plus some oatmeal just before training and I felt very good and very strong with a TON of reserve left in the tank, as they say. When I was mentally telling that based on experience I should be petering out, I was able to bang out more reps than I expected. I lifted heavy and fast and tonight I may do another one.

I may have some writing on my mind. In fact, I know I do.
