stinks the gym is closed, mine is always open

**nmsk80066** · 11-26-2009, 10:50 AM

rack chins - BW+35x 4, 3 --weight PR 32.5x 3, 3...(drop, 20-30 second rest)...BWx6...(5-15 second rest pause)...1...1 - rep PR

bent over BB rows - 105x 6, 5, 3, 3...(drop, 45-60 second rest)...100x5...95x7 -- rep PR's. not as good a MMC today for some reason, i think i'll drop SLDL for a while on leg days and just focus on regular deads on back day (my back was fatigued, i think i could have busted out maybe another rep) as i think at my stage that is more important of an exercise.

one arm DB rows - 52.5x 4/4, 4/4 --weight PR 50x6, 4...(10 second rest)...1 -- rep PR first set. felt strong on these, they seem to be progressing well

behind neck pulldown - 85x 4, 4 --weight PR 80x6...1 -- rep PR

two-arm head supported rear delt fly - 17.5s x6, 6, 6...2 -- weight PR, slighty cheaty last few reps though

DB curls - 25s x 4/4, 4/4, 3/3, 23.75x 4/4...1/1 -- rep PRs

Preacher curls - 43x 5, 5, 4...1 -- weight PR

front of body shrugs - 155x4 (4 sets)

BB static holds - 155x 10 second (3 sets)

circuit:

lat pulldown - 60x6
bent over bb row - 85x6
EZ curl - 35x6

repeat x2 no rest

lat streches and weighted hang BW+20 x30 seconds (felt like my lats were going to rip off the bone

lol)

PWO cardio - 21 minutes walking

good workout, rest days tomorrow and saturday then push sunday!

wishing everyone a happy thanksgiving!

**baco_bacon** · 11-26-2009, 11:44 AM

Nice workout, lots of interesting stuff in there

How do you like barbell shrugs?? I've always done dumbbell, might wanna switch things up for the fun of it since I have shoulders tomorrow.

thankzzz

my DBs only go up to 52.5 so i have to do BB lol, but once i get powerblocks i'll throw in some DB shrugs. they basically are the same exercise just hit the traps a little differently due to your palms facing your front (barbell) or facing your sides (dumbbells).

good idea to switch it up for variety though
