chest, Deltoids, Flys, Lateral Raises, Presses, Pushdowns, Shoulder Presses, Trapezoids, triceps

AM:

Chest Press 3 x 10;

Chest Incline Fly 3 x 10;

Shoulder Press 3 x 10;

Lateral Raises 3 x 10;

Tricep Dumbbell Extensions 3 x 10;

Tricep Push Down (cable) 3 x 10;

The above sets are actual working sets. I typically do 2-3 warm-up sets before working sets to prep the muscles for the upcoming work. I don’t count them because sometimes I warm up quickly; sometimes I don’t. Anyway, that’s it for today, folks!

Until next time…

Daily Ramblings – Workout Diary

Bodybuilding, chest, DOMS, triceps, Workout Routines

Today’s workout!

Today was a day of Chest and Triceps. For chest, I hit Flat Bench Dumbbell Press and Flys and Incline Dumbbell Press and Flys. For Triceps I hit Tricep Pushdowns, Tricep overhead extensions, and Dips. Each exercise was for 5 sets up to 14 reps each.

Really felt the soreness in my legs today after yesterday’s leg and ab workout. Goes to show you how being out of the gym for 2 weeks can have an effect. That’s ok though. The time off around Thanksgiving and the following week was awesome.

For now, we’ll have to deal with the DOMS (Delayed Onset of Muscle Soreness). The price must be paid!

Hope you are having a great day today.

Tomorrow is a day off from the gym.

See you Thursday!!

Abs, chest, Pyramid Technique

Happy Tuesday!!

My sister was in town for a few days, so I took some time off from the gym to hang out. I hope everyone’s weekend was awesome!

Workout below:

Chest press machine: 70×20; 90×15; 110×10; 130×6; 150×6; 170×6; 190×6; 210×5; 190×6; 170×6; 150×13; 130×20; 110×20;

Crunch machine: 70×20; 90×20; 110×20; 130×18; 110×20;  90×20; 70×20

Peck deck: 70×6; 90×6; 110×6; 130×6; 150×6; 170×6; 190×6; 170×6; 150×6; 130×6; 110×6; 90×6; 70×50

Today was a pyramid day using the machines. Machines make it pretty easy to utilize a pyramid technique because it is so quick to move a pin. Each set was separated by a 1-minute rest. I took 2-3 minutes of rest between sets.

Tomorrow I’ll be adding a 20-minute cardio session. This will continue daily to help me achieve my 15% body fat goal by January 24, 2018.

See you tomorrow!!

Dave
