I thought I'd get to the gym everyday this week, but unfortunately, work and end of the year planning got in the way. I took two days off and on Friday 12.4.09, I found a 24 Hour Fitness that I hit up around 1030pm. I knew that I needed to focus on biceps, back and abs. I started off with 10 pullups, which surprised me that I could do that many. I was struggling with four. I used the front grip where you focus on biceps. When I tried to use my lats and back shoulder muscles, I coulld barely do two, but I continued with 8 and 6 more for a set of three and went to the assisted machine to focus on lats and back shoulders. After 3 sets of that, I followed with
a) Let Pulldown (new machine that uses free weights) 3x10x100, 120, 145
b) Rows 2x6x150,135
c) bent over rows (balancing on one leg) 3x10x45,25,25
My biceps were spent at this point, but I did 3 sets of 10 rep preachers with 60lbs (hurt like heck)supersetted with dumbell curls (45 and 25)
I ended at the curl machine and at 30lbs I was doing eccentric contractions to failure.
I ended with a set of abs where I used the high chair and lifted my legs at a 90 degree angle I alterneated 20 reps of this with 30 seconds of the plank three times.
I am getting stronger. I need more creatine however as I am supplementing with Amino's, but the creatine helps me in recovery. Nevertheless, I am going to run up the hill tomorrow and do legs. Wish me luck.
