Tuesday (Monday was way busier than anticipated)

  • FBB Bench: 3x3@175
  • FBB Press: 5x4@85
  • Hammer Row: 25/15/10 w/3 plates
  • BB Shrugs: 3x15
  • CS Lateral Raises: 3x15
The 175 felt heavy, but I think it's going to be a good jump. I may end up repeating this cycle if I don't get 175x10 in a few weeks, but I don't mind just getting in some good work with this weight. The Press is still feeling surprisingly good. I'm going to ride that out and see what happens. Wednesday
  • Trap Bar: 3x3@320
  • Pull-ups: 10x5 supersetted with:
  • Rear Delts: 3x0
  • DB Upright ROw: 3x10
  • Pushdowns: 3x20
Friday (at my buddy's gym because we had a snow day) School was cancelled so I took my assistants to my buddy's gym for a change of scenery.
  • FBB Incline: 2x3@130/140x3
  • FBB Press: 5x3@85
  • Pull-ups: 5x5
  • KB Row: 5x10
  • Curls/Pushdowns: 25/15/10 each
As I've mentioned, I'm still trying to iron out the details of my training. I KNOW I feel best when I keep my lower body work on my Squat/Deadlift days. That would be the smart choice. I still have doing a squat/hinge/push/pull each workout in my head (although that's not what I did this week). Regardless, my training is going pretty well. I think my goals in my head aren't totally clear so I'm probably going to spend some time this weekend nailing them down and then adjusting accordingly.
